i was reading the detroit news this evening and inside their was a short article that mentioned a possible duet. aretha was quoted as 'we might have a surprise for you'.

do we really NEED her to be screaming up there with the stones? aren't the stones enough, for pete's sake?

i just got on line and was looking thru previous threads--i see someone already brought this up.

sorry.

Since they will be in Motown, perhaps the Stones feel pressured into having Aretha up there with them. Also, Keith likes her a great deal, so.............!!
Imagination.

"Pass it on" (Keith talking about the music)

I can see it now at the Super Bowl halftime show when a teenage kid looks at his father:

Kid-" Dad,The Stones are way cool"
Dad-"Damn right sonny boy".
Kid-"Will you buy me a guitar like Keith's?"
Dad -"That's my boy!"
Kid"-"Whats that big thing on stage wearing the circus tent?"
Dad -"Her name is Aretha Franklin"
Kid"- "Didn't you once have an infection of your Aretha?"
Dad-"I did, however, it is called a urethra"
Kid-"How'd ya get it?"
Dad"-"Ask your mother"
Kid- "Dad, thank for taking me to the Super Bowl".

FLASH FROM DETROIT:

Aretha has challenged the stones to a pie eating contest.

don't give me that ole one two, one two three four

Aretha can't hardly walk without assistance

better than lisa screaming, thats for damn sure lol

Sure son, we'll pick up a $4000 reissue Gibson Les Paul at Guitar Center first thing in the morning, and snag a couple of blackface Fender Twin Reverbs after I cash out a coupla cds

Aretha has the finest voice of all time! If she sings with The Stones - that's great!

GO ARETHA!!!!! She's a queen and a tough mama too, you'd all be honored to kiss her ass or find one of its hair in your soup.

Imagine her stood next to Mick? I'm probably going to get a load of negative responses now but there's no excuse for her to be the size she is. I believe it's a lot easier to stay slim when you have a lot of money. She could have amazing healthy meals made for her every day. I wonder if she can even be bothered feeding herself, I could imagine her PA feeding her with a catapult!

she skipped practice to dine out at the all-u-can-eat buffet..........she does have a great set of pipes though

Aretha did a cover of JJF. Start Me Up, Satisfaction then a duet on that tune would make sense with the tight time constraints.

Monday morning at school.
- hey so your dad took you to the superbowl??
- yeah well... I don't wanna talk about it.
-??
- It was so horrible! Dad made a fool of himself in front of a whole stadium, I was so ashame I wish I'd died.
- What happened?
- well, the stones were on and everybody was enjoying themselves, so cool, my dad was in heaven, and then this black soul singer, Aretha Franklin I'm told, joigned them, and everybody was loving it. But then dad started laughing like a loon and pointing his finger and yelling "woaw, look how fat she is! Can't believe it!" And he ranted about it, with a torrent of abuse and everybody was looking at us, it was awful!
Then when we got back I told mum and she told dad he was an arse, but he was all worked-up because everybody in the stadium had sent him to hell so he shouted at her: "you start loosing a couple of pounds yourself before you talk!".
Eventually he had to sleep on the couch and mum said he'd stay there until he agrees to see a shrink. You see, he has a real obsession with fitness, it's so wierd. Kind of like in the movie American beauty, you know?
- I see... tough one. Middle age crisis I guess. Hope it goes fine, pal. Sorry that ruined the midtime show for you, I saw it on TV, it was amazing!

She is having a duet with Daryl after the gig to see who can eat the most hot dogs.

Imagine she join them and Mick had a senior moment and referred to her a Solomon Burke!

Or a duet with M. Toker who can crack the worst jokes

She was just on TV talking about getting hot dogs catered from LA's Pinks for her party of 30!

She said she is a conoiseurre of hot dogs and hamburgers and she looks tha part!

Baboon- You are a man of steel, from the neck up!

Here's a joke for you:

Q; What is long and hard on BaboonBro?
A- Third grade!

I hope they won't do a duet, she was so bad in the opening song.

NO, she was on Detroit TV talking about flying someone from Pinks in to cater her pre-game party.

Hopefully I can hit Pinks on or around March 6!
