Regarding Taylor and "Chacal": No one else has a girlfriend or a spouse or a staff member participating on the message boards, nevermind battling with the fans, nevermind belittling the Stones. Sad.

So, what exactly are Mick Taylor's plans for future activity? Will he be resuming with playing solo dates? Has anyone heard anything lately? It's been several months since his last date with the Stones, and he seems to have been inactive as regards performing. What's next for MT?

How MT and his people run his affairs is a completely different issue than whether he can contribute to the current Stones. If he were half the business man that Wood is he'd have it all. If Wood were half the guitar player Mick T is, maybe less of us would be hung up on this.Quote

On the contrary, I enjoy the inside information. Yes, she corrects what she feels is misinformation (sometimes in a very direct manner), but I don't find her to be rude or combative.

Wood a businessman? I've always been under the impression the Stones have had to bail him out more than once. No doubt his painting and his touring income have helped his more recent success but I get the impression he leaves true business decisions and general such orchestrations to others.

i assume he is talking about smarts in how to conduct oneself professionally.
can you imagine sally wood posting on IORR that ronnie really wants to solo more and let loose but the stones won't let him, or that ronnie is pushing them to play more deep cuts but they refuse to listen to him? or complaining that ronnie didn't get proper songwriting credit on some song from the 70s?
it would never happen. in business if you have a beef with someone you tell them to their face and you discuss it like adults. you don't conduct your affairs on internet message boards.

Please, Sally is to the Stones what Kate is to the Royals.
She tweets herself, usually upbeat Stones related stuff [twitter.com]
From what I can tell, she's got musical taste as well. What's not to like?

It would surprise me if Sally Wood (if that's her name) is able to post anything anyway. Seldom seen a girl with such a dumb face expression.
Right on Kleer, you gotta lay it on the line. I bet some folks in the Taylor-camp agree with you.

Is this where you really want to go with the whole Taylor vs. Wood thing? Keep it up and I"m sure BV will be happy to close this thread again. I think some of you probably have a dumb expression on your faces right now.
Wrong. It's obvious to me that you don't have a clue what I'm talking about. Surely Kleermaker does.
Ok...I don't need to see km's face expression...Quote

I think every has to keep in mind that every participant close to the Stones likely signs contracts that include certain non-disclosures and non-disparagement and also probably limits their ability to even discuss the tour - except for the 4 members of the Stones.
If we want brutal honesty of MT here is his best quote:
"The better question is why did I live the Stones but should I have joined the in the first place." (paraphrased).
People see the riches of the Stones and mock him. But being a band is a real minute-to-minute saga. He was younger but more talented on his instrument than they were. He was mocked for it and railed against by an angry KR and undoubtedly manipulated by Brenda. He is not a confident guy and ended up on Heroin....long life for MT. In that contest his quote is beautiful in its honesty. I love MT for both his playing but his flaws and his honesty.

Anyway, it's clear that only MT is able to tell what's on his mind right now, which is the big question of this thread.
Btw: I don't think MT is conducting his affairs here at all. We also don't know anything about his contact with the Stones or what he has or hasn't discussed with them. So again this is speculation.

This is a bad president attacking people instead of the music itself. Taylor is great at only one thing, playing guitar. Ronnie is a genius socialite, rock star. I have little doubt if he were left to his own skill there would be better music but he understands the stage politics. Taylor does not, plays each note like it is his last, he has no reverence to this band, never has, he plays for keeps, that is why he is admired as a great artist
Perhaps the strangulation of RW skills set him into him a decade of not giving a darn and polluting himself at gigs. Nonetheless SW is a non issue and clearly a classy dame.

And what about Mick Taylor. Do you like his guitarplaying? Whats your favourite Taylor/stones song? do you miss Taylor on stage on this tour? .........
