I like the sound of this guy. I prefer to believe him rather than Fran Curtis. Plus the fact that hes a "doctor" gives the story much more credibility.

Because he had a @#$%& brain operation and even you must know that there is a lot of waiting and hoping after that before even the Stones can put an end to speculations.

>> the Stones themselves can´t end the guesses, because they don´t know how Keith´s injury will heal <<
yes Too Tough, that is exactly the point: and if the Stones don't know right now, then neither does the Daily Express, or the fans they're quoting so authoritatively.
>> As long as they don´t know WE or the tabloids have to guess. <<
as long as they don't know, we have to wait. guessing isn't obligatory ...
>> Mick being pissed is quite realistic <<
as in it matches your concept of Mick, which is no skin off my nose.
other commentators added that Richards will take several more lead-vocal turns than usual in the revamped show, featuring such favourites as The Harder They Come and Worried Life Blues, as well as a piano set.
Keith, be well - all the way, baby, all the way

Not sure what the "even you" is supposed to mean, but anyway, yes I know that we can't know right now, that's why speculations may keep you busy but they won't get you anywhere nearer the truth.
Re: The Independent -A bump on the head costs the Stones £5m
If the tour does not start within the first two weeks in June then it will be a BIG problem logistics wise. But it seems like Keith is developing fine, and when he is being checked tomorrow, they will know a lot more. I would expect 6 shows delay and start with Gothenburg or St Petersburg. Hopefully no more than 1-2 weeks of delay, that is all. In 1998 they got a 3 weeks delay and then Mick lost his voice, with another two shows being cancelled. The UK tabloids are more into making stories and headlines than supplying facts as usual. I would not use them as a reference of my tour information.

BV, if I'm allowed to ask..... I wondered if the "Get Well"-thread have been sent to Keith? Pretty soon, he'll be fully recovered....perhaps a "Welcome Back"-thread would be more suitable?

Yes, I was wondering about this too. BV, have you sent this thread/messages contained within to Keith yet ? Would love to know if you have, and especially what the response (if any) is/was.
