keith is in LA to begin filming his part in Pirates.

great news

Regards,
Martijn - rs.martijn@gmail.com

Let's speculate as to whether he'll have to remember his lines.

He'll be ok. His only lines are "It's good to be here, it's good to be anywhere."

...You know me!
But lately has also said: It's great to be back here! It's great to be back anywhere! Probably because it wasn't obvious that he'd be anywhere with the Stones after the accident...

"har, har, har!.........roll me a fattie matey!.....and don't let any fall on the poop-deck"

Since the producer declined to include the other Stones, here's a few suggestions for the other pirates - Jimmy Buffett, Spanish Tony, Chuck Berry (as a Jamaican), and Anita.

Also, Elmo, Leonard, and Lukester to make smart ass comments, ohno to act blind (can't leave out the handicapped) and drake to record the whole thing.

as long as he has his vodka and orange soda, no worries, and his fags of course

Has Keith already arrived here in LA or is he arriving later this week?

why is he 'begging' to film? i thought he was asked to appear . . .

Great. That means no rehearsals and NO NEW SONGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!dammmmmmitttttt!

He flew to LA with his tour assistant on a private jet provided by the studio. Thw movie was filming earlier in the week at the pier in Rodano beach (spelling?) Keith's parts will be done in a studio. The stones are planning on doing some reherals in Boston for the US tour.

Correct - private jet directly after the Horsens gig - I assume from Kastrup, but my source (who was due on the 'plane) did not know.

maybe his lines will be the lyrics of
'Slipping Away' & 'Before They Make Me Run',
as they appear to be the only things he can remember.

oooooooooooooooo, good one

He doesn't have to remember -
the Stones have a telepromter.

Yeah... but his eyes aren't too good either !

Straight from Department Of Necessary Info:

If he was goin' to Hollywood he sure flew from Kastrup.
If he flew to Kastrup there are some airports to choose among on Mid-Jutland.

will he have to climb on a coconuts tree during the shooting ?

Actually some news said that he begged the producer of the movie to include such a scene into the movie as a pun on the real happenings - quite macabre isn't it ? Or funny...:-) But it was just a rumour and they wouldn't do it it anyway for security reasons (insurance will not cover for it...). They could have a stuntman to do the scene for him, but then again what's the point in having Keith Richards in the movie when he's doubled by a stuntman... ?

...just some minor thoughts and... useless information... :-)

Living in L.A., I'll be on Keith alert for the next week or so. I think it's likely he'll show up at one of Willie Nelson's gigs this weekend at the Hollywood Bowl, probably the Sunday show which also has Ryan Adams on the bill. It's rare that films shoot on a Sunday so that day is possible, as well as the Saturday night show. I'll keep a couple Stones albums in my car to be prepared if I run into him.

>>I'll keep a couple Stones albums in my car to be prepared if I run into him.<<

It might be too late if you run into him with your car. oO

please drive careful!

Ah yes, a reminder to Keith - please stay safe during this tour break! And watch out for a maniac named Halup.

I take this as good news,that he is there already.The sooner he starts,the sooner he will finish.It shouldn't take long.I hear he has a small role in part of the film.Anywhere from two to four days shooting the film would be great as he would then have a week off to himself and then plenty of time to rehearse.There probably won't be enough time for sweeping changes to the set list but,there should be enough time for a handful of changes if they feel enough motivation.

Be respectful of Keith! He's the master of the riff, and of the roll in rock'n roll.

How much time did they spend rehearsing in January 1999?Less than a week if I remember correctly.

January 13-23.

Keiths lines,

I'll ave a scredriver, its good to be here its good to be anywhere and i seem to have fallen from the coconut tree.

If you do a little search on the internet, there are some sites supposedly leaking the script. Now, heaven only knows if this is indeed the TRUE script or, even if it is the original, whether it will remain unchanged, but anyway, here's what I found:

Note: Bootstrap Bill is Will Turner's (Orlando Bloom) father.


BOOTSTRAP BILL sits at a campfire talking to someone we don't see.

BILL: I need to find him...he's...my son.

VOICE: You have a son?

BILL: Yes.

VOICE: I have a son as well. In these very waters. I'll help you find yours
if you help uncover mine.

The owner of the VOICE leans into the fire and we see his face.

CAPTAIN GRANT "The Sea Sponge" SPARROW: Savvy?


Sounds good
