Silly old fool.

I think it'll take a bit more than 1D to be the end of The Stones. Wise up and calm down out there. Too many Ed Sullivans around here!

It is great that Ronnie can have some fun on stage. I don't understand why people act like "moral police" and say some bands are good and some are bad.

Why is saying some bands are good and some bad acting like "moral police."

There are moral police in some countries. They put you in jail for doing things they consider immoral.

having an opinion is not acting like police. Nobody called for Ronnie or anyone to be jailed. Can't people think that it is a silly thing for a Rolling Stone to do, isn't that a legit opinion? Nobody is saying he should have been prevented from doing it, or fined or jailed or anything. it is called having an opinion that differs from yours, that's all. Everybody has to like everything?

Made in England and specifically London area, apart from Brian of course.

But it was his original band.

He put in the adverts. Good on yer Brian.

Performance clip and some comments from Ronnie:

Ronnie wants to remain young forever
To play with teenagers is maybe a good recipe to do so

He has a young wife who is a famous showbiz-producer. I don't find this so strange. Seemingly, he had a great time doing this

Thanks for the videos. Great to see how those young guys look up in admiration to Ronnie.

Seems to me that many boybands, although very successful and admired by millions of girls, don't want to think of themselves as boybands. Instead they would like to be considered as mean rock stars.
Hence the tattoos and the "rock" attributes. The collaboration with Wood probably supports them in this deliberate misinterpretation of themselves.

I'm sure at some level they would like to be taken a bit more seriously...when they've finished counting the money... :-) not sure of the names but I think it was Nial was really quick to promote the additional date at Cardiff Millennium Stadium...does that remind you of anyone?

whats the x-factor?
great to see ronnie

Life's just a cocktail party on the street

Rock On, Ronnie.
Do whatever the @#$%& you want!

Just having fun.

Imho this is part of the strategy designed by Jagger known as "brign the youngsters to the Stones".
Mick did his part (the SNL segment with Arcade Fire and the Foo Fighters).

As Keith doesn't know any musicians who was born after 1945 it's Ronnie's turn to promote the band to the 10-17 yo public.

Keith wrote the baby book for the 5 year old demo...beat that Jagger!

What about the collaboration with K'naan?

He can be forgiven for that...we're each allowed one lapse of judgement.

The music they do sucks but so what? Good on them and good on Ronnie! What's he gonna do? Go down to the Bag O Nails and wait for Hendrix or Lennon to show up and talk shop?
These guys pay reverence to the Stones and even played with one in front of millions of TV fans. I don't get why anyone is bothered by this.
Rock on Ronnie you rock legend I sez.

Out of all the talented credible artists out there to play with, he choses to perform with the biggest manufactured pop boy band on the planet at the moment because they're on prime time TV. Wow, he must really crave attention!

Stooped to a new low and made Mick's extra curricular activities look classy.

1D aren’t my style but they definitely don’t lack talent and given their huge sales and popularity across the planet, their credibility seems to be holding up well with their fans Of course I know that what you really mean is that they don’t play authentic guitar-based rock music and haven’t built up their reputation hacking it around various dives in the back of small van for years. Sure, 1D have Simon Cowell to thank for their global success but every great band we love, including the Stones, have had that kind of visionary manager behind them who gets them the publicity that they need to thrive and survive. It's just business.

Regrettably, the type of acts you and I like will never, ever appear on the X Factor. Ron Wood’s guest appearance was unexpected and I was half-expecting to see a new CD commercial during the ad break, as that’s the only reason “special guests” appear on the show. Is Ron making an appearance on their next album/single??

Maybe in the future Father, but as for now this IS their next album and single and Ron is notably absent from the 87 times I've heard the new CD played...

It's just a 'good on ya' to the boys of 1D from a long time mentor which Ron has certainly been since 2010.

Now it's off to SNL for 1D...

I feel like their damn road manager

Good to see your passion on this Munich.

Rock on Ronnie! So good to see him.
He looked really good but the crowd was going crazy it wasn't so easy to hear him.
I'm pathetically grateful for any sight or sound of the Stones, individually, collectively, whatever.
So thank you X Factor, 1D & Ronnie.

It's useless to hide it...I gotta serve somebody...

So, Ronnie is off touring with 1D now then? I hope it doesn't collide with future Stones gigs though...

nice of the host to learn his name! he got it wrong...twice (but right once).

i guess he wasn't sure so he figured he'd vacillate between sing an "S" or not!

Terrible decision

Ronnie at approx 1m 19s

In fairness, Ronnie really gave it all, LOL! ><

I wanted to like it and tried to keep an open mind, but I found it absolutely cringeworthy.
