1987 Frauenfeld - Bo Diddley with Ron Wood
1990 Frankfurt, Waldstadion - first proper Stones show, attended 13 more shows since then
turned 41 this year - somewhat deceived since about 1990 when the group turned into a commercial machine (well, I realized only then...) - really HATED that Mercedes ad in 2005... have boycotted Stones shows since 2002 for being too @#$%& expensive...
