Rod Stewart always carries photographs of former bandmates Ian McLagan and Ronnie Lane around with him.
The "Sailing" star enjoyed success with Ian and Ronnie in the 70s with their faces, and Rod, 74, revealed in a conversation with BBC2 "Reel Stories"he always feels that his late friends are close.
"Every time I do a concert, I have pictures of them on stage because I owe them to them," he said.
"They were my dear companions, they helped me get started because the beginning of my career was a bit difficult to start: join one band and then join another, then join another, but with the Faces, it really took off."

I remember when the ARMS concerts were put on back in the early 80s which Bill and I believe Charlie participated in, along with alot of other musicians like Clapton, Page, Beck, etc.

They are both nostalgia acts by now playing mostly 40-55 year old hits.
very unlike the Stones, of course, who are mainly focused on fresh songs from their latest albums

IMO Rod Stewart has become embarrassing. I will always consider him, because there was a time he was beautiful. Those early albums, and the the Faces are some of the best music I know. And great singing.
At my job I hang with a bunch of young guns, and I have to educate them on music LOL. Rod comes on, and I try to explain that he was a great one in his time. But his 'current' music is like Sweet'n Low: saccharine, passe`, trite.

Yes, if true the incident certainly doesn’t reflect well on Rod’s behavior and judgement. This surprises me he would treat a security guard so poorly - so
maybe there is more to the story...

Its one of the saddest stories in rock. For 10 years, he was basically perfect. Then in like 1976 he never did another good thing again. Its absurd. And its amazing that first 10 years was SO good that it can overshadow 40 bad ones. He's as lite and Vegas as you can get now, with songs that were SO good.

Don't remember who, but one musician said If Rod Stewart shows his face I'm leaving.
Might have been Kenney Jones?
Yes, I wouldn't be too quick to blame Rod. In Alex's case, it was the police who were overly aggressive, although his son started the incident by drunkenly going up on stage.Quote

The doorman refused to let him (and his son) in to his daughter's (or some other family member's) party...
