Does anyone else get put off of this band by their greed over recent years, i don't hold any of them in such high regard anymore, still love their music and performances though, just find what they turned into depressing.

If you want to be specific, Mick Taylor played on only one song ("Midnight Rambler") for the December 2012 shows in London and Newark. In 2013 they brought him back onstage for the "Satisfaction" encore but that was mainly to have him there for the final bows. His acoustic guitar playing was barely audible and unnecessary. A waste of his talent.

I said his acoustic guitar was "barely" audible on Satisfaction. One could say it was perfunctory. I felt it was a waste to bring Mick Taylor along on the tour to just play on just a couple of songs. At the least they could have done CHYHMK every night. Were you pleased with how Mick Taylor was utilized on the 2013/14 tours? I sure as hell wasn't.

Met Mick Taylor in LA in 1995 after one of his club gigs. He was very nice and
I bought his CD that came in an autographed box with one of his guitar picks.
Met Keith Richards in 2006 in Seattle at the Olympic Fairmont Hotel.I posted my
encounter with Keith on IORR and if you Google "Meeting Keith Richards in Seattle Tonight", you can read the story which is very cool IMO. He was very nice and a true gent. It was hard to believe that I shook the hand that played all of those memorable songs.
Met Ron Wood in Seattle in 2006 also and he was very chatty and super cool.
Stood next to Jagger and Charlie, but never shook their hand unfortunately.

Agreed, to include his contribution to Satisfaction (non existent ) would be childish and splitting hairs ( again ) .

Why was it non-existent?

So here's the story - it was the last night of The Who's brilliant 3 gig run at Hammersmith Odeon in December 1975 and word got round that the band was having a party in the upstairs bar area.
Security was lax (not to be confused with Keith Moon's girlfriend Annette Walter-Lax who was in attendance).
And I and a few friends managed to sneak in before the stars started arriving. And what stars they were - besides all of The Who, Ronnie Wood, Eric Clapton and Ringo Starr.
But here's the painful bit. I spoke to all of them and managed to get their autographs on a paper plate being given out for the free food. All of them Roger, Pete, John, Keith, Ronnie, EC and Ringo all one paper plate. And on the way home I managed to lose it on the last tube back home.
Ugh. I've beaten myself up about it ever since.

Seriously you want to continue this line of conversation, you can't hear him.
I don't know why you would want to defend the way Mick T was under used by the Stones, what were they afraid of.

If you ever do meet him I can vouch that he's very nice, but has bad breath and BO.
Granted each time I met him was during his drinking/partying days, so maybe he's cleaned himself up since then.

On the other hand he was so much more apologetic during his bad breath and BO days, sobriety seemingly turned him into a narcissist.

And turned him onto painting instead of making new solo albums.
Sad, really.

PalaceRevolution, no I didn't mention our previous meeting. I thought I wanted to have a clean slate, also I might look like a stalker if he realized I'd met him before! LOL!
And Keithsman, Mick does NOT wear a WIG....I can testify to this!

Ronnie has said that switching between music and painting keeps him sane. So why complain here about him making a solo album?
