Well, I didn't see them live at Werchter, nor did I hear anything, but I saw some pictures, and...doesn't it start to look a bit, uhm, rediculous? Pathetic even maybe? I mean, Ronnie, Mick and Keith all dressed up in wigs and shiny jackets..it's not very rock and roll anymore is it? Charlie looks o.k., he looks his age, but the rest look a bit like dressed up clowns to me...
Pretty sure those wear no wigs. There are some pics were you can clearly see that Mick's hair is getting much thinner. Ronnie's hair is definitely genuine, I'd say...

Check that pic where he's laughing at Keith. If that's no wig, than I am a 6 foot five muscled-up basketbal player.
I think it's very possible that ROnnie has a wig, but I don't think Mick has one, based on pictures. Mick did use other forms of extras 30 years ago, I really don't mind, if they play well - that's the main part, and of course I wouldn't know about last night as I weren't there

Anyone can come and see my hair. I will be 44 and I have till this day not seen any grey or white in my hair. I say you envy these guys. Noone ever complains at Charlie, who a-greyed at thoirty. Like that's the only acceptable way.

<<< I mean, Ronnie, Mick and Keith all dressed up in wigs and shiny jackets ..it's not very rock and roll anymore is it?
Firstly, they're not wearing wigs, they're just being a bit over-zealous with the bottles of dye, and secondly ... the shiny jackets are actually VERY rock n' roll and are perfectly OK with me.
Keith's balding patch has clearly been covered over with a weave/hairpiece, in the Werchter photos - and Mick looks to have had a very successful appointment with a bottle of hair-dye.
...however,they look good on it- so i don't have a problem with the hair treatments i'm less keen on the Vegas-style glittery jackets/shirts.
I have always respected Mathijs’ opinions ’cause he’s very knowledgeable and frank when it comes to musicianship and music in general. There for I’m surprised to read this thread. I thought focusing on wigs and shiny jackets would definitely be beneath your dignity, Mathijs. The Rolling Stones have been your heroes, why torture yourself with this kind of posts?
