I got a digital copy a couple of days ago when a story about the book turned up in my google news feed thingy. Really cool stuff. Great work angee

Angee needs five more good reviews on Amazon to get her nifty book on
Goodreads.com, which is a great website for spreading the word.

I'm in England on a work project at the moment but if 5 of you Americans post
a review on Amazon.com I will check in at IORR in a couple of weeks and arrange to send the 5 good guys/gals a worthwhile rock momento from my archive.

Thanks, stonesrule. I've been meaning to write to Angee about how much I enjoyed her book and this was just the push I needed. Just wrote the 10th review on Amazon.

Hey, *Keithglimmer*, and *latebloomer*, how nice is that! Now I'm trying to figure out how to negotiate good reads to get shown on there. Thanks to you.

*Stonesrule*, man, you rule, on Stones, that's for sure! If I was to have a publicist...

~"Love is Strong"~

Sweet ladies making sweet gestures to each other...love it. I'd make a comment angee but I've yet to read the book, not one to be rushed these days. Sometimes the anticipation is as good as the act.

peace

Hi, everyone,

I dug up this topic to note the following info for anyone interested in listening to an all-Stones radio show this coming Friday,, Feb. 20th at 7 pm-9 pm EST. The host "Ripper" (Russ Yodice), a big fan, is interviewing me about the book for the first portion of his show called "Ripper's Rarities" for maybe 15-20 minutes.

Here is the link to the station's page, at WSLR out of Sarasota, Florida with live listening options, including iTunes found under the "Schedule" tab:
[wslr.org].

For anyone doesn't know yet or who needs a reminder, my book is You Get What you Need (Miniver Press, 2014) out in paperback and for Kindle (see [www.amazon.com]).

And thanks again for all your support so far.

~"Love is Strong"~

Just read the book and what a nice book. I thought i was a hardcore stones fan but compared to some of the people in the book, im just a novice. Blue Lena must be a hell of a woman, in good terms. Learned a lot about different stones fans and youve must be much appreciated by the stones. PS If you read this B.L can you please post pictures of the Keith scarfs. Wonder what they looks like "Thank you Jesus, thank you lord"and Keith laughed out loud and said "dont thank them" he he

Looking forward to listening, Angee! Good for you!

An odd thing...following the link you provided, when you click on the schedule for The Breakfast Bar there is a small picture of a crazy old codger in a radio station with an "On The Air" sign lit up behind him. That codger is Canadian actor Don Harron in character as Charlie Farquharson. A rather big Canadian icon in the '70s, Harron died in Toronto last month at age 90.

Oh, good, STG!

Thanks so much, DoctorFreddie, much, much appreciated.
I passed your comment on to BL, hope that's okay--she'll get a kick out of it.

~"Love is Strong"~

DoctorFreddie, BL says thanks to you, and...

Since she's not usually reading here or at any of the Stones boards, she gave me this link for you
to see all the *Keith scarves*:

[members.tripod.com]

Reminder, radio show tomorrow evening, all-Stones, all live cuts, 7-9 pm, Ripper's Rarities, WSLR:
[wslr.org]
See Schedule tab for listening options.

We discuss fans and the band at the top of the show.

Thanks for the reminder - I almost forgot it.

TY, SomeTorontoGirl, well, I was a little nervous, did you enjoy it?
I was afraid my phone would go out on me, drop the sound, ha.

Hope you heard it, Cristiano! I think it went pretty well, two crazy Stones fans talking.
Good live tunes continuing now.

~"Love is Strong"~

Sorry I missed it. Can someone post a link to the audio? Thanks. peace

Yep, I heard it. Well done, angee!

Actually, I'm still listening to the show, there's a lot of fine live songs being played.

Nice job, Angee! It brings you some much-deserved publicity!

Hi angee,
got your book here in France with amazon.fr
easyly readable and understandable even if english is not your native language
it was nice to read other fans experiences and feel part of the family, even with a very small concert-goer history
hope next summer will give us all many things to tell you for your next edition !!

rubyT, thank you so much for your recommendation from France, merci!

I'm happy to know the writing is easily understable. Yes, part of the family, good to hear you felt part of the Stones fan community. Yes, for the next editon or installment, if it happens, I would love to talk to more fans about more recent shows and past ones too.


Cristiano, glad you heard the radio spot, short and hopefully sweet, huh?
Naturalust, no tape exists, none that I can access anyway, so sorry.

I'd settle for a transcript...

peace

Haha, at this point, I'd settle for you getting the book on Kindle.
Well, then again, I think you need a paper copy. :-) Maybe an autographed one.

The transcript wouldn't have all those sounds that, you know, aren't really words on it.

Hi Angee, just read your book and very much enjoyed it. I'm glad to know so many other fans are just like me. I thought I might be the only person who remembers exactly when getting hooked on the Stones through a song. It was 35 years ago for me when I heard SFTD at a grammar school ball practice. I have not been posting long or often but enjoy meeting and sharing with other fans. I liked you straight forward writing style. Thanks for the read. Joe

Congratulations for your book. Very cool. I'm happy this thread made its way back up or I'd have missed the info.

Heading over to amazon.ca right now.

Much good luck to you!

Hey, everyone, Bjornulf told me to feel free to revive this particular topic that is about my book:

You Get What You Need: Stories of Fans of The Rolling Stones (Miniver Press, 2014). It is on
Amazon.com and also at Amazon.co.uk:
[www.amazon.com]
[www.amazon.co.uk]

Why I'm bringing it up now is I will have a few copies with me at shows in Columbus and Milwaukee. If you want one, you can write to me at the email in my profile and we can meet up. You can save the postage. :-) And, if anyone wants to drag a copy they already have to the show, I'd be glad to sign it for you! Thanks for all the support so far for the book, from those who gave me interviews to those who purchased it, even if you aren't in it.

Aside from that, I hope I run into those who are going before or at those two shows, where I will be. I should be wearing my black Stones cowboy hat.

Here's to a great tour!

~"Love is Strong"~

Hi, everyone, all you IORR'rs:

As some of you know, I wrote a book that came out about a year ago. The contents are based on interviews with over *100 fans of The Rolling Stones* of all ages, featuring stories from members of online boards including those here at IORR. People talk about how they first discovered the music of the RS, highlights of their concert experiences, their online names and interactions, and in-person meetings with band members and back-ups. It is available on Amazon under its title: You Get What You Need. or you can order a paperback copy directly from me.

[www.amazon.com]
[www.amazon.co.uk]

With the upcoming Olé Tour in Central and South America, I am asking for help from any of you fans going to those shows. If you write to me at andee9@gmail.com with your name and home address, I will send you some postcards to distribute to other fans attending the concerts. Even if you are not going, and would like have a few cards to give to friends or acquaintances to get more word out on the book, that is fine too, ask away.

Here are the front and back of the postcard. Blue Lena and Keith are on the book cover. The photos come from inside the book. You may see someone you recognize.





~"Love is Strong"~

Great postcard Andee! Bring many for the preconcert parties

Who's that handsome SOAB with Mick Taylor? ><

BTW... it's not "Central and South America", they also will play in Mexico, in fact you’re in for both shows... so just in short say "Latin America"

Ah, Latin America, duh!!! Thanks, VC.

I will bring lots of them for the pre-show parties.

On that good-looking fellow with Mick Taylor, I think he was trying to help Mick T with his solo career.

A little late, but got a review in.

Excellent, thank you, Elmo! (Maybe the book can still make Goodreads. Is stonesrule still reading?)
