why did Keith not tour with Ronnie in the 80.s
Posted by: keefriffhards ()
Date: June 23, 2015 14:10

to me it would of been an obvious choice for the two of them to tour while Mick and Keith fell out. why did keith go out on the road with Waddy and not Ronnie ?

Ronnie had his own project with Bo Diddley.

that's not really an answer. i mean Ronnie with Bo Diddey probably took up a few weeks of Ronnie's decade.

They toured in 1987 and 1988 when Keith formed his solo band.

The chance they had to tour would have been in the following period, as they toured in 1979, 1981, 1982, made DW in 1985, marketed it in 1986, Keith did Hail, Hail Rock'n'Roll as well as other projects in 1987 (also with Ronnie).

He would have had to get Ronnie in on his solo project earlier if this could have worked, imo.

keith toured with the winos in 88 and 92' 93' nothing in 87. nothing in the 80's with keith and ron.
i just thought with keith and ron being soul brothers partners in crime

See my post above. Keith did Hail Hail Rock'n'Roll in 1987, which was quite a project. And Keith and Ronnie also did JJF with Aretha. Then came Ronnie's big tour with Bo Diddley on several continents.

Didn't Keith write songs and rehearse for his solo album in 1987 as well?

You really need to Ask Keith if the quite reasonable ideas you've gotten from Dande don't work for you.
You also probably want to get acquainted with Nico Zentgraf's fine site for checking dates of things: [www.nzentgraf.de]

Sheer speculation but: Maybe Keith and/or Ronnie realized it could be another blunt-force trauma to the Stones
if two of them toured together - like if Charlie had toured with either Mick or Keith,
or Ronnie with Mick without Keith. Anything like that would be considerably more of a slap to the other Glimmer
than doing stuff without any other Stones involved. And Keith very much wanted the Stones back together.

sorry, my bad, but you are really splitting hairs here.. Ronnie would of jumped at the chance to tour with Keith. a spat with Bo Diddley dont come into it..
hail hail rock and roll was a one off show.

... Huh? What "spat with Bo Diddley"??
Keith did more than just a "one-off show" for Hail Hail Rock & Roll; and he was rehearsing, writing and recording
with Steve Jordan and other Winos off and on throughout 1987. But anyway!

true, but Have you seen the movie about that 'one-off'? (And yes, it was not only a one-off concert but a movie too - that alone takes quite a while to accomplish... and when it was finished, he still had to go out & promote it!) - it took ages for that 'one-off' to come together.

easy tiger. i already said my bad. i actually do think this is the right site to ask a question about keith Richards. he wrote the songs remember. the stones were down and out when jagger toured solo. i know what you are saying is correct but why go on the attack like that. your very well informed and i appreciate you explaining what you did. dont want to get off on the wrong foot sorry ssoul. yeah spat was the wrong word too lol. your right it would of really been the nail in the coffin if keith toured with ronnie. thanks.

Look, there were two shows, rehearsals, one album produced by Keith, the film and he was the musical director of the show as well. Then comes the Talk Is Cheap rehearsals, writing, band forming, recording, album release, tour...

And before this he recorded, played and produced Aretha + Ronnie and Bo Diddley toured the US, Europe and Japan.

That was their 1987. Probably some more work as well. This is NOT «very little», ok? smiling smiley

He's expressing himself perfectly well, and he is absolutely right, you can leave your nasty attitude out the door. What if every time you asked for details on Keith's guitars people addressed you to Ask Keith?

It's interesting, but what about Bobby, wasn't he just as bad as Ronnie? And Ronnie was indeed on board on the Aretha recordings..

I think I can remember an interview at the time TIC was released in which Keith stated that he knew everybody expected Ronnie to be more involved in his solo project, but he wanted to do it "his way".

Was this a political answer, as Bill German implies? Who knows.

For sure, by the time TIC was done, the Winos were a solid reality, and I am sure that Keith sincerely wanted to take the album on the road with that band.

Good decision, anyway, if you ask me. I think that a rehash of the Barbarians project wouldn't have worked as the Winos did and wouldn't have added much to Ronnie and Keith's respective careers.

Liddas darling, he disagreed with everything Dande and I said before he changed his mind and said yes that makes sense thank you.
And providing the link to Ask Keith wasn't nasty - it was meant to be helpful.
Some questions can't be answered by anyone but the man himself,
especially if speculative replies are deemed unsatisfactory.
All is well now, I hope. Carry on.

to my mind two people in this post have given it some thought and actually i do agree with them..
