I do not know what bearing this has, if any, on the debate about who created the tongue logo. However, I just received the tongue shoes (which are very cool) and which use the Pasche logo. The shoes come from the Rolling Stones store and the inside of the box states “… their now famous tongue and lips logo—designed by John Pasche…” I realize that it was subsequently modified to the current versio

I like the Pasche version and the shoes!

I hate to wade into this scintillating debate and have no dog in this fight, but I seem to recall Mick a long time ago crediting Pasche with creating the tongue design. But again, I may be mis-remembering.

How about the guy who went by Mr Lawyer on Shidoobee and a different name here. He was “entertaining.” Haven’t noticed him for a while.

I don’t know anything, but when both BV and Stones Doug are strongly implying it’s the end of touring, I tend to think it’s the end of touring. Maybe we will get a one off here and there but I view that as unlikely given the prep necessary to sound as good as they would want to sound. Maybe some solo pop ups like Ronnie does but I’m guessing we have seen the last of the Stones live as a band base

I saw Sebastian Bach on Friday night and during his show he casually mentioned that the Stones are releasing a new album and going on tour in the spring. Info we already had here from IORR. I wonder if he just reads IORR or has some contact within the Stones. I know that he was friends with a bunch of the older rock stars so who knows.

Thanks Frankotero!

Ok so I am not a card guy but bought the mega box for fun because it is the Stones after all! So how do I know if any of the cards I got are actually valuable? Don’t really want to sell, just curious. And what do you guys/gals suggest I do with them now to display them somehow? Thanks!!

Wow--this book looks great and I got all the way to the payment page and learned that shipping to the USA is almost the same as the price of the book! Ouch. Gotta pass because can't justify $36 expense for shipping. Oh well.

Count yourself lucky monkey man. In South Florida we don’t get the good smaller bands at all. No real market for them here.

I'm surprised you guys and gals don't know. Between shows while on tour, Keith is busy posting here under many different assumed names. Most of his posts are complaining about their own set lists, poor record sales in the USA for HD, discussing what venues he thinks they will play on the next tour, bitching that Steve Jordan isn't Charlie, despite him selecting Steve and using him

Jlfstra--can you recommned some headphones or earbuds that would be good without breaking the bank? And while we're at it, can anyone recommmend a good turntable and speakers that also won't break the bank as I try to get back into some vinyl? Thanks everyone! This place is the best.

Does anybody know why the UK store was shipping the Exile red disc purchases immediately and the US store ships on 7/11? Seems a bit odd.

Big announcement on 5/8 regarding celebration of Ronnie joining the band 50 years ago. I would guess it means some shows, even if just a few one offs. I doubt they get ready for just one.

DGee, what would make you think for one minute that they don't have sophisticated management in place to deal with these issues? I would be absolutely shocked if they did not have that in place. It's not like they are rubes not understanding business. They are a large, sophisticated, corporate mechanism. Certainly Mick (at the minimum) is very attuned to all things commercial. And I

No real new ground broken in the podcast but it is very enjoyable in any event. The blokes who do it are actually pretty entertaining, even if they do have a predilection for the Beatles over the Stones which is blasphemy!

So, is anyone thinking that them being in the studio was solely to do this tribute song and they aren't actually working on new Stones material?

I got caught up in the thrill of the hunt as I do each year and buy stuff I don’t really need. This year I got the Keith live and Ramones live and Judas Priest live. I guess it was a “live” year for me. For those who don’t know, and I didn’t, there is an official RSD marketplace for items that didn’t sell out. It’s actually quite good. I think it’s rsdmrkt.com. As of now they still have the new K

Similar to HouseBoyKnows info, I have a good friend who is friends with a member of the backup musician touring party (it has never got me anything, haha) and my friend was told that there are plans to play in England and France but no other info such as when or how many shows.
Forum: Tell Me

With no original members how does a group use the band's name? Do they buy the name from the band? And aren't you really just seeing a tribute band at that point. Nothing wrong with tribute bands but aren't you paying real band prices for a tribute band?

Everybody knows that 14 shows is perfect for a tour. You can’t have a tour with 13 shows. 13 shows won’t work. 14 is the number. (A little Something About Mary reference).
