Well, here's a questionnaire regarding certain firsts and bests.
Kind of like the "back to my place" section they have in MOJO magazine.
I'm kind of new here, so if this has been done before...have mercy, baby.
The questions are...my answers follow...

1: First Stones album bought:
2: First Stones concert attended:
3. Best Stones concert attended:
4. Favorite Stones concert moment that you attended:
5: Best moment in Gimme Shelter:
6: Best moment in Ladies and Gentlemen:
7: Besides Stu: Nicky, Billy, Mac, or Chuck on keys:
8: Saturday night Stones record:
9: Sunday morning Stones record:
10: Best drink to have with a Stones record:


My responses are...

1: goat's head soup back in '73. I have a soft spot for this one.
2: July 10, 1975, L.A. Forum
3: (tie) Forum '75, Anaheim '78, Wembley '99 (front row, B stage, my wife's birthday, too).
4: Intro to '75. FAnfare for the Common Man, the Chinese ornamnets
hanging from the ceiling, the Lotus Stage, then Honky Tonk Women...
Bono can only dream of a stage like that. Best stage they ever had.
Why not drag it out again.
5: Keith's boots and when he gets out of the car when You Gotta Move starts.
6: Close-up of Mick Taylor's hands on the solos.
7: Tie. Billy and Mac.
8: Some Girls and any boot from '75 or '78.

1- Stone Age -believe it or not. I wanted a Stones lp
and this was new on the shelves. I know it's been slammed
alot but it introduced me to the blues and the Stones
earlier stuff. Then Brown Sugar and SF came along next,
in rapid succession, perhaps my first real Stones records.

2-Buffalo 1978

3-Toronto December 3 94 VL show: best performance technically,
best set, best flow -that old Stones magic! Tho I've been at
more "historically" important concerts around here: CNIB 79/
Palais/ SarStock, they weren't as good shows.

4-Keiths soaring guitar parts on said show, he was really
cranking it out, no bars hold!

5-Mick sees the Stoner onstage, freaking out, but nobody else seems
to notice care. Clearly put off/ worried but the true show man, he
carries on.

6- Everything. I remember Stoned midnight shows of this every Friday night
as a kid wired on acid, booze whatever. Giant larger than life Stones on the screen, blasting from the speakers..............

6-Nicky and Stu rule!

7-Any of the Mick Taylor titles official or on boot!

8-London Singles Collection (SACD)

9-Cafe Negril
