very upsetting..

Hilarious is a better word. At least he lives in the present.

Thanks to Norbert's uploads on Hot Stuff, I'm listening to the long-lost early Roxy show. Absolutely incredible stuff with MT playing from another dimension. Download it ASAP in the highest quality your bandwidth will allow and luxuriate in the vibrato.

Mick Taylor You should ask them. I don't have the answer to that question.

"More creative" - priceless.

That's not Taylor, unless he's being brainwashed.

not MT just someone who tries to run his page, very amateur MT needs a better web presence.

I think quite possibly that second answer was a bit of MT's (or his people's) humor showing through. It sure got me laughing.

I agree completely. It made me chuckle too.

Nothing humorous about it..this was a terrible injustice to the man.

I agree that there's nothing humorous about Taylor's comments; he's simply stating facts.

But what is the 'terrible injustice' that has been done?

.....

Olly.

It the Stones had actually done something truly creative this tour the comment might be taken seriously, since they obviously haven't the comment is pretty obviously meant to be ironically funny, imo.

Yes, I was looking in particular at the second comment that you mentioned, but I agree there could have been a laconic eye roll to accompany the first.

That Facebook page does not speak for mt
The Facebook page is the injustice to MT

May I have your attention please?
May I have your attention please?
Will the real Mick Taylor please stand up?
I repeat, will the real Mick Taylor please stand up?
We're gonna have a problem here..

'Cause I'm Mick Taylor, yes I'm the real Taylor
All you other Mick Taylors are just imitating
So won't the real Mick Taylor please stand up,
Please stand up, please stand up?

...drops the mic and leaves the floor...

Maybe they will come back and do an Arena Tour performing all of Sticky Fingers.
This time bringing Mick Taylor along for the set. Slim chances - but I have given up trying to guess the stones next move. Most of the time they are not predictable. Being unpredictable can be a good thing.

Nah i think M.Taylor is gone, but they can do a R.Wood album live. What about a dirty work or a steel wheels show

On the other hand he does nothing to avoid it, so probably he doesn't give a hoot or isn't even aware of all the things written there.

I don't understand why M. Taylor he does not do something creative ... or perhaps no longer able?I don't understand why M. Taylor he does not do something creative ... or perhaps no longer able?

Courtesy of Norbert, here's the fabled Rocks Off from the early Roxy show, 3/4/1990 (Kleer, feel free to repost it on your channel if you like):

Who's playing the intro, Taylor?

George Callins, I guess?

Sounds very a la Keith. Great.

Who is singing with Carla?

It's hard to say, but it doesn't sound like MT to me.

yes... i don't know what he is like... it's possible he's never been on Facebook and doesn't realize that this page about him exists. many people his age have never used Facebook.

FYI: If you're on Dime, there is a large number of recent MT postings.

It's very witty and it does resound Taylor's dry sense of humour to me. But none of us knows.

That same MT FB fan page is quoting Taylor: "I don't have an answer to that question", referring to not being re-invited. After playing together for 2 years(?) not knowing why bla bla? Come on Kleer, get realistic.
