Quotestones2 thanks BV .. so it's still nothing safe for Milan, they are waiting for Mick's forces ... here in Italy no news turns out .... everything is stand by .. In terms of news you need at least 6 days to get a negative rapid test after the first positive one so June 13 + 6 = today. The other matter is how one feels after fighting this stuff for one week and usually the answer
Forum: Tell Me

If one test positive on June 13, one needs at least 5 to 7 days to deliver a negative test. 13 + 6 = 19 = today. That is just the test point of view. Somehow how people feel will vary bur after 7 days and the right management, feeling much better is expected. But this virus impact peopl's energy for sure. It's a serious fight.

QuoteChristos Just wondering, are your tests negative now? Or are you going to the show regardless? Oh I live in Vietnam so (1) we wear mask in public places (2) i meet my kids in Milan, for sure the idea is to NOT give them Covid (3) litterature shows you are not contagious after 5 to 7 days from first symptoms (4) rapid test negative (5) i did not do pcr because they are not as relevant

I got a positive Covid test and symptoms the same day as Mick. I was able to fly to Milan, just arrived, very tired. This Covid stuff makes you extremely tired and i guess recovery until righ before the show is a must.I was training for a marathon and had to stop it all,
Forum: Tell Me

In Vietnam we wear mask most of the time in public places and it does not bother anyone. It is a pure sign of respect for the others that is common in Confucian societies. Last year Nashville I was one of the only one wearing but in LA1 there were much more masks in the Pit.
Forum: Tell Me

I flew to Nashville and LA to see the 5th version of the band with Steve Jordan and I thought he was fantastic. Just to make it clear, Stones V1 with Brian Jones, V2 with Mick Taylor, V3 with Ron Wood and V4 with Darryl Jones. On 19th Nervous Breakdown Steve Jordan is bringing back a feel of "Got live if you want it". Thanks for giving us this V5!

This situation is a complete shame and from my experience I'm sure that some people gave up and ended up not getting pit access while they paid for it. So unbelievably unfair while normally the people in the pit are hard core fans. No fans - No Stones. I sincerely hope this thread is read by some people who will be able to make things smoother, much smoother for tomorrow and Wednesday.

The first part of the solo, the very best one if you ask me, is played by Keith. Then comes MT with a more technical approach.
