I stumbled over this site in 1997, while looking for info on the B2B-album. IORR has been my go-to site for nearly half of my life now - time flies!
A wonderful site, with lots of great, knowledgable people. We even have our own band, of which I'm part of.
Does your wife ever question the amount of time you spend on here Bård?

It must be something that has to do with his proximity to the IORR power source who also resides in Oslo, or not too far away. The closer one is to BV, the stronger the urge to spend time on IORR and to piss one's wife off. An irresistible appeal, really.

Hi Matt! Hope you are staying well in London. Looking forward to the book! Love Sparkly Top
An official Rolling Stones stats book would be great
I am afraid you will be disappointed with my book, it's not a stats book, it's a visual feast. A book full of images of memorabilia from my collection, 1,500+ items from early gig posters to modern autographs and everything in between! Even a 1972 tour Toilet Seat cover ;-) Some short adventure stories but it's all about the stuff! Hot Stuff

I am not really a member of IORR, because I started IORR, back in Nov. 1980, and this web site in 1995.
My first Stones show was at Scandinavium Arena, Gothenburg, Sweden, Oct 6, 1973.
My so far last Stones show was at Hard Rock Stadium, Miami, FL, USA, Aug 30, 2019.
Between these two shows I have seen them more than 500 times live and several times rehearsals, lost count many years ago.
These days I go wherever they go, I would not miss a show.
My next show will be this year or next year, as soon as we get this pandemic sorted out.
I am still married to my girl friend who went with me to my first Stones show in 1973.
Luckily she is not crazy about the Stones - that makes my travel budgets larger.
My Stones collection is a big mess because I never have time to sort it out.
My speciality is memories, they don't take up much space.
Then I love pictures, old printed magazines, posters, promo photos, press conference stuff, all their music, of course, also bootlegs, and I own most Stones books printed.
My favorite shows have been in Argentina, seen them many times there.
Also "She Smiled Sweetly" at Roseland NYC was an eternal memory.
First I was a Charlie fan, then I was a Keith fan, then I was a Ronnie fan, and then I was a Mick fan, these days I love them all equally.
My saddest Stones moment was flying home from Perth Australia, via Aucland NZ, SF USA, Copenhagen and eventually Norway, March 19-21 2014, lots of emotions, many tears, but then they started the tour in Norway two months later, so no more sad days.
Normally I am a very private person but some times I think what the heck...
Nice read BV thanks

OK, Sir, sorry, I never meant to offend you, just some remark on the outer appearance of you posts, which, however, you seemingly value a lot. Wow, but now you give me a lot of adjectives, seems I touched a wound point. Being a lawyer by trade, do you also layout your briefs in colour and bold etc.? I don't believe so. Such layout of posts looks to me like a shout for special attention. But that design affects the easy readability of the post, distracts the attention. There are tens of thousands of posters on this board, all do post in regular type, no caps, no colour, no bold font. And it works. How would this board look like if every poster would use different type of layout, bold, colour, caps etc.? Just MHO. Don't take me to court for it, please.

My first record of the Stones was Rewind, and then More Hot Rocks, Sticky Fingers. On cassette! I've played those cassettes over and over again. The sound is totally destroyed by now! LOL
My favorite Stones periods are with Brian Jones and Mick Taylor. Let's say from 1968 to 1974. Although I also dig Black and Blue.
Unfortunately I've never been to a Stones concert before. I was not a big fan in my early days and later on I couldn't afford a ticket. But I prefer to see those old concert movies anyway.

try to get Lucky Dip tickets. Those are affordable at $70-90 for a pair.
BTW, see them once live and you'll quit preferring seeing those old concert movies.
