I know you haven't!

Look forward to checking your "state of mind" in late August.

It won't be good ... I can tell you now !!

I was aware of them throughout the 60's 'cos of my older brothers and sister but they really entered my world at Hyde Park in 1969. I was 11 and my brother was "babysitting" me so he took me along. He was 16....what a great brother and babysitter! I'm finally repaying him by taking him to see them at the O2 in August. I've been to every London gig since Earl's Court in 1976 but it'll be the first time he's seen them since that day in Hyde Park.

We must have been watching TOTPS at around the same time - I saw the same clip
and recorded it from TV with my state of the art Panasonic cassette player.
I didn't buy a Stones record until Tumblin' Dice came out and that was me hooked.
Hope that the shows at O2 are as good as I'm hoping

Miss You 1978. I was 11.
