I really like Darryll, as a person and a musician, but no, he does not have the looks to be a Stone.

what does this even mean? It may have been relevant in 1963 when they dumped Ian Stewart as they were trying to appeal to 13-year old girls, but who on earth seriously thinks a bunch of wizened septuagenerians are going to be preoccupied with what a band member 'looks' like.

You may think what you want, but i dont give a flying @#$%& for your opinion. I heard from a friend from a brother from a cousin that jagger does not find him suitable to be a stone.

LMAO....well thats it settled then.

Yeah, hes not 'suitable' for the same reasons that he wasnt suitable several pages ago.

$$$$$$$

Untwist your knickers....

lmao, WHAT DOES THAT MEAN.............

I MEAN WHAT lmao STANDS FOR

By the way, exactly how does one laugh one's ass off? I understand the rolling on the floor part and even the pissing myself laughing bit as well. But wouldn't you be laughing your head off, since laughter flows through the mouth? If you were laughing through your ass, you'd be farting. Or at least a case of the runs. Laughing your ass off--now that's funny shit!

Outside of financial reasons, I wonder if Darryl ever wanted to be a 'Rolling Stone". It's a job playing bass for the greatest r&r band. I sure he does not cry about not being in publicity photos, merchandise, etc. the Stones really like him and his bass playing, in addition to trusting him with their music. I am sure Darryl knows a great deal of personal and inside information about the band that he has never spoken about in interviews or publicly. Another matter of trust. He was hired to play bass and does a great job doing just that!

pssst. I'll tell you guys a secret.... There won't be additional band members because they have already exceeded the realm of possibility by getting back on tour... It is not sad but a triumph, still we are nearing the end here kids..

Daryl Jones is in the same way a Rolling Stone like Chuck Leavell or Bobby Keys.

No he isn't but he is good enough that he can play with them which is for a musician what matters. Anyway,if you had too many rolling stones that would make them less special. Right now there are only 4 and the Rolling Stones play their shows with a gang of great players.

Tony Chapman never played one single gig with the Stones (He rehearsed once maybe twice at the most) nor did Geoff Bradford (rehearsed only), Also at Rehearsals were Andy Wren & Brian Knight... but you forgot Collin Goldin who did played bass with the band for at least 8 shows & Dick Taylor who played with the band till Sept/Oct. 1962. also Paul Jones actually replaced Jagger at one show in 62. side note: Micky Waller replaced Charlie in March 1964 for one gig (the 15th).

despite the many backing musicians and vocalists the stones have had for years ive maintained only 5 different positions within the band have ever existed.

jagger(still here)
richards(still here)
watts(still here)
jones(replaced by taylor, who was replaced by wood)
wyman(retired)

technically jones replaced wyman on bass and using my theory should be an official member just as wood and taylor were in the past.

but for some reason having jones as an official stone dosent sit comfortably with me.

maybe im getting worried that justin timberlake or lady gaga will be official stones in the future.

I think it's silly and shameful that Darryl isn't considered a Rolling Stone actually. The bass guitar is one of the most important instruments in creating the music the Stones play. I can somewhat see how the keyboards might be considered less necessary instrument on some songs anyway but with Chucks other important roles he should be a Stone too, imo.

There are obviously three way to look at this:

Business: No he's not a Stone because the key businessmen have never let him become one and obviously never will.

Image: No he's not a Stone because they have decided to stick with a proven formula of only including the 4 skinny English guys and capitalizing on the history and nostalgia of it all.

Music: Hell yes he's a Stone. Whether you like his contributions of not, the music wouldn't be happening without him playing on every live tune.

I've never been comfortable with the Stones relegating long time (and permanent) members as side men, a clear sign that the business and image aspects are more important than the music, imo. What other good bands do you know where the bass player isn't considered part of the band? It's all bs to me and I would have more respect for them if, after a key musician proved his mettle, they would make them official members. Darryl certainly deserves to be one, imo.

There is likely a loss of creative contribution involved too when key members are relegated as sidemen. It's not that I think Mick and Keith wouldn't dominate most of the creative decisions anyway, but I imagine the motivation to contribute your best stuff could be somewhat dampened by the sidemen relegation. We all know both Darryl and Chuck are excellent musicians, maybe the best in the band, is it coincidence we don't hear the best musical output from them and don't ever consider them as standouts? Is it coincidence that the best music came from the Stones when everyone (except Stu) was considered an equal partner in the band? It's hard to say but my feeling is that the Stones have done themselves a disservice by this approach. That their desire to have such personal limited ownership of the creations and the image and business have limited their ability to deliver the best product possible.

You are correct...I meant Avory, I wrote Chapman by error(DUH!!),, Tony Chapman played at least 10 shows with the band including the very first gig (July 12th 1962). Avory only rehearsed once maybe twice. I interviewed both of them a couple of times many years back.. Sorry for the very dumb mistake

The precedent of Ian Stewart speaks loudly here. It was clear from the start that band membership was not guaranteed anyone, no matter how big their contributions.

Perhaps you are right but I think it was a stupid precedent. I loved Stu, always thought he should have been a full fledged member. He friggin' co-founded the band with Brian, they should have told ALO to piss off. In fact it goes against the artistic credibility and bad boys with a vision portrait that some people here paint of them that they didn't do just that. These guys were early sell outs to the establishment. smoking smiley

No he is not. Membership in the Rolling Stones has been externally frozen for quite some time now. It is a very selective club-Look how long it took for the last guy to apply and become a member (and entitling him to the same benefits as the three core members). The requirements appear more rigorous than becoming a US citizen (a member of ISIS would arguably have an easier time becoming a US citizen than applying for membership in the Rolling Stones LOL!).
