QuoteProfessorWolf are you in the us? if so ask if your library is part of the inter library loan program because they just accepted my request and are shipping the book to my local library from a library somewhere in the us and if it works for me it might work for you I am in San Diego. The LA library has it. I will check into that. Thx

QuoteProfessorWolf QuoteJadedFaded I never read Jerry Hall’s Tall Tales. I’d like to out of curiosity, but it’s out of print and used copies for sale are too expensive. I don’t know why the publisher doesn’t re-release it as an ebook. That wouldn’t be costly to do and I’m sure they’d sell a few copies. you could try your local library and if they don't have it maybe they could get from

QuoteMisterO This is the book that started it all for me. It had Stones songs sheet music in the back. This was my first Stones book too. I remember seeing it in a bookstore but not having enough money to buy it and talking the bookstore owner into selling it to me for the cash I had with me. My copy is also a bit dog-eared.

Don’t know if it’s already somewhere in these 175 pages, but there was a picture of Mick with Pele in the NYTimes the other day.

It’s a good question, why there isn’t a Stones channel on Sirius. When I bought my last car, it came with free Sirius for a month or two. So I checked it out and realized there were dozens of channels that held absolutely zero interest for me. I was surprised there was no Stones channel. I gravitated to classic rock and blues. The first day listening to classic rock they played Aqualung, Jethro T

I’m not going to buy a lottery ticket, but someone asked me what I would do if I won that much money, and the first thing that came to mind was a private Stones show. Would be sweet.

Ticket. I love the energy at their concerts. I am not a collector of stuff. I don’t need or want to have every release of every record or box set, mono, whatever. I enjoy listening to all the music I’ve already got, but a live show is just so much fun. I love seeing all the fans and meeting up with friends I’ve made at concerts over the decades. A Stones concert is a very special and unmatched ex

Primarily iPad, sometimes iPhone. We don’t need fancy bells and whistles. This site works just fine and has such good tour info and interesting and fun conversations. It doesn’t need upgrading. It works just fine as is.

I can’t see them ever doing a Las Vegas residency. I can’t imagine them wanting to spend more than a few days there, much less to live there for an extended period. If they continue playing live, they will do more 12-14 show tours. The only question is where.

Wow, that averages to roughly 231 1/2 posts per month. Impressive!

What a great tour! I am so heartbroken that I had to miss it, but following along here was some consolation. Congratulations to The Rolling Stones for 60 years of the best rock and roll music in the world!

Quotekeefriffhards This just shows how much Ronnie and Keith have deteriorated without Charlie, and how much Lisa is missed, listen to Gimme Shelter in 2014 and then listen to recent ones, it's a world of difference. Thanks for posting the link to this 2014 Tel Aviv concert. I’d not seen this one before and yes, the combination of Charlie, Lisa, and truly great guitar work by Keith

The photo of Mick and Keith hugging is quite moving. Think of what this concert meant to them. It all started for them in London and, sixty years later, they are still going strong back where it all began. Congratulations to the Band and to all the fans who were able to be there celebrating this incredible achievement with them!

Just watched Matt Lee’s video of Gimme Shelter on YouTube. Chanel Haynes was absolutely fantastic! Best version of GS I’ve heard in a long time. Perfect voice for it.

I wish you a speedy recovery, Mick! I hope the rest of the band haven’t caught it too. To all the fans who traveled so far, so very sorry for you. Man, I hate this virus. It just keeps on f*cking things up!

I’d pay a lot to be in the front row. I’d pay less the further back I was. As I am not tall, way in the back isn’t good for me.

I was there in Philly. It was a really really hot day. By the end of the day, I can’t tell you how many people were horribly sunburned. But it was a great day of music. The lines for the restrooms were super long during Black Sabbath’s set.

I love both studio and live, but if forced to choose one, I’d say live. I have to pick Ya-Ya’s because of the impact it had on me when I first heard it as a young teen. One of the most intriguing and powerful songs I’d ever heard. Man, the 70s were awesome musically!

I’ve got it on VHS. Showed it to some fan friends a few years back who had never seen it before. They were literally rolling on the floor laughing. Very campy, to say the least.

We all miss Charlie terribly. But Mick and Keith performing the greatest rock and roll songs ever written, songs that they themselves wrote, that is The Rolling Stones. There have been many, many changes over these six decades, but I have always enjoyed and appreciated seeing my favorite band play live. And how wonderful for young people to get to experience the Stones in concert for the first t

Congrats to all who have gotten tickets and good luck to all who will be getting tickets. It’s been a long time since I’ve missed a tour, and the 60th anniversary tour is a helluva tour to miss, but sadly, I can’t leave home for more than one or two nights, so Europe is out of my reach this summer. But I will be following the tour here on iorr and I know it will be a fantastic tour. Enjoy!
