I know that this may be a silly question, but does anyone know why Keith's fingers are so swollen? Especially his left finger... (I'm aware that this probably has been a topic before...)

bla- bla -bla

It's arthritis.

I just want to know... No need to get rude.

we know, lorenz.
and you can read it in a lot of threads

Thanx. I'll search the threads.

I know you know.
He just asked a simple question, I don't see a problem if I answer him.

yes lorenz, ok, don`t be angry with me.
but sometimes i can`t hear it any more.

sorry

Yeah, no worries - I understand you too

do a search for Heberden's nodes and Bouchard's nodes
and you'll find more than you ever wanted to know about it.

here's a pretty thorough thread about it, if you read all of it: [www.iorr.org]

Don't take it too hard pal...people here are just tired of any talk about Keith Richards' weaknesses, although it's clear for most people, that he's in trouble with his playing these days...no matter what the reason are.
Hope he has one of his better days this sunday :-)

I hope too on wednesday! I'm really excited to see them again since I missed the opportunity the last time they were in Norway.

I had my durty hands on a Oslo tic but it got sold.

You can still get tickets here: www.billettservice.no

as a result of causes, this seems like the best thread to add these photos to -
since the subject keeps coming up, there might as well be a set of photos so anyone concerned
can ponder the evolution of Keith's fingers from (just for example) 1995 to 2005.

the thread i gave a link to above - [www.iorr.org] - has some more information and photos,
and Heberden's nodes is still the term to google if you want to know more, but the main points are:
a] yes it's evolved over time but this is something Keith's been living/playing with for many years already;
b] the nodes don't keep growing forever, and for most people are not non-stop painful; and
c] that's what a guitar hero looks like. all kinds of joy and blessings on Keith, for good.

You stepped on Keith's fingers.

Hey Open-G !

Thanx for your link!
I really like that version of "You got it made".

But, sorry, - I didn't really get it. Did you mix up various versions and/or add additional instruments for it?

Sounds great!!

Yeah CousinC,
I mixed a few tracks together - one is a guitar/s and keyboard track.
then there's a track where only Keith sings...
and then of course there's that 17 minutes take of the chorus attempts of Ron & Keith - I picked the right ones out (I hope) and placed them in the mix.

glad you like it.

That left index finger looks nasty.

Hi Open G,
your version of you got it made is fantastic I alway thought it´s a pitty that there are only fragements! Can I download this?
greetz

dang - it used to be possible to directly download from e-snips....

oh well, I put it up on GigaSize aswell - here you go Deardoctor

Doesn't it hurt when he plays guitar?Oh Dusseldorf concert in 2007 was great

thank you very much open-G! Brilliant work!!!

I wonder what those bandages were for...did he attempt to have surgery?
They indeed look VERY painful!

I wonder what those bandages were for....

Axe splinters....

@with sssoul

Thank you for the fotos. I thought, it started around 1999-2002, but I know it better now.

His fingers actually look pretty good for his age and what he's put them through over the years... it's his liver and kidneys that should be of concern...
LONG LIVE KEEF!
