Pic does not appear for me.

Hope he doesn't sink with all the metals around his neck and arms.

ROCKMAN

[bp2.blogger.com] And here's the direct link to the pic.

He looks no better or worse than any man in his mid sixties, even his hair looks normal.
So why does he persist with all that crap on his head.

I'd prescribe some anabolic steroids with a little weight lifting.

Crap & crap. Aint it a free country?
Anabolic.... weight lifting... What is it with ya people??
A beefy Keef... ? Its the rock and roll Riffmeister, babies!

he doesnt look any bad.
he's still in great shape!!

Keith still is in good shape, considering the life he's led.
Not everyone makes it! There are a lot of rockers lying six feet under.
We have to feel good to see Keith in this shape.
I got the feeling that he's even in a better shape than just ½ a year ago.

Maybe there's someone who pushes hin towards a healthier life.
Hopefully Keith is up for it when the "2009 tour????" get started.
We need him and also Ronnie in fine shape for that one.

Nice pic, even if it seems that Keith is dropping his bathing shorts.

Been Stoned since 1964 and still am!

Thanks, that was my main purpose with the pic - to show how good he is looking for a man of (almost) 65 who only 2 years ago was almost at death's door. If the pic is indeed taken this summer it bodes very well for the future of the Stones - and us "humble mortals" - methinks.

As for the bathing shorts - he's got to have to make a decision - off or on?
Maybe they were bought when his waistline was a little wider?

Pic probably from Turks and Caicos, this March.
He looks a lot better than most other 65 (almost) year olds. But the sad thing is, they won't even leave him alone when he's taking a swim. Paparazzi and fans can be a PITA (pain in you know where) when they take photos of the boys relaxing...

I'd like to echo 64 & mofur's sentiments.
As I've commented previously, I reckon Keith will be in much better nick the next time out.

well, he doesnt LOOK bad but...just the look, it ain´t much

I think he looks kinda like John McEnroe

Keith Vs McEnroe! I'm not a tennis fan, but THAT I'd pay to see.

Well they are quite matey. I'd fancy McEnroe in straight sets...but Keith would win the arguments ;^)

I believe they are mutual fans. I remember a photo of them together at the US Open - Keith in a blue shirt - where is Rockman when we need him?

<<< If the pic is indeed taken this summer >>>

I actually don't think it IS taken this summer. It looks very much like a pic I saw several years ago in one of the UK tabloids, possibly the Daily Mail. I think the picture might have been taken during the winter of 2005/2006 at the start of the ABB tour, when they broke for Christmas/New Year.

I also doubt this is a 2008 shot and think I have seen a similar picture before.

Anyway, I guess he looks so "good", despite his lifestyle, because he loves what he is doing and he has a great wife and familiy he loves and cares for.

That keeps him young and healthy.

Yes correct Lady Jayne there is a shot of them tagether...

I think paulywaul is right. There were several pictures of Keith published for a Daily Mail article and the one posted here, was one of them. I'm thinking 2004. I have a vauge recollection of reading the particular article.

I thought the same thing...but I'm not sure one way or the other.
What is quite clear from a number of recent sightings is that Keith looks in much better nick than he has for the last couple of "bumpy" years.
Looks like shit in a good way. I think we all understand that concept in reference to Mr Richards ;^)

the pic was actually taken at Byron Bay in northern NSW on the 40 licks tour before their Aus 2003 dates.

I think he looks pretty good actually! Not wasted, not overly thin. I like him with a few extra pounds. If that is a recent photo, then it is a good thing!

I agree about the date. It definitely has to be before the Autumn 2003 - he stopped wearing the cufflinks bracelet sometime at the beginning of the European leg of that year.
