Charlie used to come up front, speak a little and introduce Little Red Rooster on the 1965-tour. Well-documented on Live In England '65. Good stuff!
"And now we're going to play a song called 'The Last Time'.
Oh wait, we played that one already!"

When did Mick first start intoducing the others?
I don't think they did it their earliest tours, did they?
That is my question too! Why they never introduce him??!Quote

What about other Stones members introducing Sir Michael? No proof of that?

If not, Mick just hopes you guess his name.

Chiming in kinda late here, but there was one tour where, after Mick introduced the others, Ronnie would take the mic and would introduce Mick, and this was a nightly thing, not just an anomaly, not just now and then, but at EVERY SHOW. Anyone else remember this? Don't remember which tour.

Like Keith, Andy knows his blues (and his playing is as eclectic as Ronnie's)

Quite funny and a clever one was Mick's introduction of Ronnie Wood in some Helsinki gig (can't recall which one - 95? 98? 2003?) as "England's answer to Andy McCoy". McCoy - best known worldwide as a Hanoi Rocks guitarist - is a sort of classical druggie Keith Richards pirate type/clone - even legendary Nicky Hopkins, who toured with Andy here in Finland during the early 90's, described him as "the most Keith Richards-like person I've ever met". Shit, the guy even looked more like Jack Sparrow than Keef ever did...(Funny though, even when those Pirates of Caribbean movies were shown here, some not-so-well-informed movie critics described the Sparrow character as andymccoyish...)
Here is Andy "Finland's answer to Keith Richards" McCoy:
Anyway, I guess for McCoy, a huge Rolling Stones fan, that of Jagger mentioning him while introducing the band, must be one of career showlights... But I am not so sure if Ronnie was very flattered...At the time Andy started to play the guitar, Ronnie was already a rock star... But for Jagger, like for most of the world, Woody might have been just another Keith Richards clone...
