I happened to catch the Some Girls concert video on VH1 last night. They only played had a few songs I hadn't seen in concert before. Beast of Burden was good as was Miss You. Ron Wood was playing pretty good with Keith, they seem to like each other a lot, Mick Taylor was always an "outsider".
I found out that Mick Jagger wore a Nazi Swastika tee shirt during the concert and it was blurred out by the video editors. What the heck was he thinking of? Dumb!
Did he ever apologize to his fans?

bye bye johnny
That was VH1's decision, not Jagger's. It's not retouched on the DVD.

Why did he decide to blur it out then? Too much of a controversy he deliberately created?

LOL. You sound like a true anti-Semite.
I just thought Jagger used poor judgement. So did VH-1.

The fact that anybody stupid enough to connect those tshirts, which were a punk cliche, to anti-semitism has the brains to operate a keyboard and post a message is astonishing (written by a jew who remembers 78).
This is pretty much all true . . . the point of the shirt was certainly not "destroy nazism" it was more like a collage of negative, nihilistic words and images -- the word destroy being parallel to the swastika -- intended to piss people off.Quote

Let's get this clear. The punks used the swastika - primarily the Pistols and Siouxsie Sioux who dressed in Nazi regalia - as an obnoxious symbol that would piss off society. The t-shirt did not say 'Destroy Nazism'...it was sheer anti-social behaviour to get up people's noses. That what punk was about - if you could piss of the establishment you'd go for it.
Jagger wore the shirt to be trendy and gain credability with the punks. I don't think he thought it through properly. At no point did he make say I wanna destroy nazism. It was a silly move if you ask me.

Anita Pallenberg may have been a Nazi-sympathizer. She begged Brian Jones to dress up in Nazi uniform and Keith used to live in a Nazi mansion. In 1971, Keith moved with Pallenberg and their first son Marlon to a French villa named Nellcôte. During the German occupation of France in the second world war, Nellcôte was the local Gestapo headquarters, and there were still swastikas on the radiators when Keef arrived. It was there that the Stones recorded their 10th studio album, Exile on Main Street.

I guess the fact that Keith bragged about how he showed up at Mick and Bianca Jagger's wedding in full Nazi uniform was also just a co-incidence. No surprise that Anita Pallenberg was there.
Bianca Jagger was completely angry at Keith for that, and I don't blame her.

Keith in full Nazi regalia at around the 2:40 mark, with his armband cunningly disguised as his son Marlon.
You really are a moron.
