This news made my stomach hurt. First concert I ever attended by myself was Jeff Beck with Jan Hammer in 1976 here in Saint Louis. I didn't have my driving license yet! Saw the man countless times and got to shake his hand. Another one of my hero's.

Wow, really? What a cool guy, I first met Jim back in 1986 here in Saint Louis. He couldn't believe my dad drove his own 40 foot long RV down to the Fox Theatre and couldn't imagine having one of those in the UK (petrol prices). Time is not waiting for any of us...

It's a live performance mistakes will be made. The real key is if the people in the audience walk out pleased or not. What haven't seen hear is what impact Charlie's passing as had on him and the rest of the band. Maybe mortality is weighing on them to be as "ON" as possible. I just glad to see them performing on stage again. Steve has completely stepped up to the pla

Quoteretired_dog With all due respect, but I think you all moralise this a bit too much. Friendship, camaderie, yes, ok, but in the cold light of business contracts they may have no other choice, not only for monetary reasons but also and in particular saving a chance to have a future even with Charlie at all. You can only break contracts so often until you reach a point where nobody offers yo

First a foremost is Charlie's health. Steve Jordan will do a fantastic job and I would assume Charlie was 100% in favor of Steve standing in for him. Bottom line, we all should be hoping for a speedy recovery.

Well done "In their own words" documentary. There were a few inaccuracies but Chuck the producer brought a ton of fresh perspectives. Keith was exceptional as always. My mom and sister Melody were wonderful as always. Can't wait to see the Band here in Saint Louis on September 26th.

Quotejbwelda Quotemosthigh QuoteLieB QuoteJavadave Supposedly, the Stones barred it’s wide distribution because the were worried that the images of rampant sex and drug use would lead to them being banned from performing in the U.S. Can’t see that as even a remote possibility anymore.

I'm bumming out! I purchased a copy of the movie on DVD assuming it was a legitimate release. Purchased from a very legitimate and above board business. The movie has some excellent concert footage. The rest of it I'm pretty sure the band never planned for it being released. Movie about Rock and Rollers, period.
