Cute pics.

No sign of Chuck at the David Gilmour gig in London last night, so I think we can guess where he is now!

Weird he would quit the tour before the end, did someone fill in for him?

Chuck himself was a fill in after the first couple of legs as the original keyboard player/multi-instrumentalist of Gilmours tour - John Carin - left to rehearse and tour with Roger Waters.
Three upcoming shows in Mexico City, two Desert Trips, and an expected North American tour in 2017.
It's like a soap opera as Carin has a long and twisted history with Waters, Gilmour, and Pink Floyd (after Waters left).

Here's a decent album for those that like this sort of things - of course there are many more not on here..........

I used to have a VHS tape of Stones screwups I was able to record myself from various things, with one of the funnier ones being not a screw up but Ronnie playing a toot of harmonics during Miss You from Atlantic City 1989 with Keith and Mick in the background wondering what the F he's doing, but that is awesome. Might need to get that one!

There you go.......... [iorr.org]

How about some info on what the Stones are working on in rehearsals ?

According to Ronnie on Twitter, then it is mostly baby-activities...

Bernard Fowler is with Steve Jordan.

They should film the rehearsals and release them on dvd/bluray, that would be way more exciting to watch than any greatest hits show in front of a million people.

Really? You need a hobby :-)

I love 'em but I don't need a DVD of rehearsals

You do if you want to hear something other than the same 12 songs over and over and over again.

Would love to hear them do One Hit, always loved that track

One Hit was a big mess when they tried to play it in 1989, now 27 years later everyone but Ronnie is very far away from their peak in terms of musical ability.

It will probably sound like an even bigger sloppy mess if they play it this year.

Same with many other lesser known songs in their catalogue.

Same with many other more well known songs in their catalogue.

Sympathy for the Devil , Honkey Tonk Women , Miss You , Tumbling Dice , even IORR many times since 2013.

Sadly, you are right. There are some examples of trainwreck warhorses the last few years. For instance Honky Tonk Women in Milwaukee 2015 became a disaster when Keith played the intro out of time with Chuck's cowbell. These kind of incidents will probably become more usual for every new tour.

The only way for them to prevent trainwrecks is to properly rehearse for a long time before hitting the stage. Which is what I hope they're doing right now.

But...he is BORING (Mccartney, that is)

I like the odd trainwreck...... I would never want The Stones to be one of those polished type bands!

Absolutely.

Keep On Rolling

Yeah, I suppose they're welcome to stick around for a while.

Has anyone been able to actually confirm any of the songs the band are rehearsing, or is it all speculative?

No news, but a photo...

Nice cover for the Blues-album.

My breath caught thinking of Jagger playing one of those up close in front of me.

What's Bjornulf up to, riding the Cali. trails? Too quiet...

I was there yesterday and saw them all arrive. Charlie stopped and signed for me, but the others didn't. A lot of activity with people going back and forth between the two buildings they are using, but not a single note of music can be heard.

Yup, Charlie's a class act. When they rehearsed for the 2013 shows, it was Charlie who came out and greeted us.

Screw these rehearsals. I want to hear the ones with Bill in 2012. Just like his bass jumps out from those 'bonus' Exile and Some Girls cuts, I'd like to know if his playing with them improved their sound.

Forget about Bill.

Another from Mick:

Rehearsing something new

Something new? From the new album?
