The dangers of narcotic pain releivers are in their seductive quality and their much quicker addictive potential as compared to alcohol.

I noticed that he repeats the Muddy Waters painting the ceiling in 1964 story. I've always found that a little hard to believe but apparently Keith insists it happened. Oh, well...I remember all kinds of stuff that never actually happened too.

QuoteCristiano Radtke "If you're looking for 'Trouble,' you've come to the right place." Is this just a joke with the song title or the album will include a Elvis cover?

Elvis towards the end. Same set list night after night. In Las Vegas he mixed it up sometimes. He did two shows a night for a month twice every year. Must have been a real grind. Sometimes he would call out a tune they had never done live & he would shine for a minute but otherwise...... 1976 new years eve: video:

QuoteNoCode0680 I saw The Flaming Lips back in 1994. At the time it seemed like I was going to see them after they became famous. Because they'd been around for a little while but they'd just started getting some serious radio play with She Don't Use Jelly. But in hindsight that wasn't nearly as famous as they'd become after The Soft Bulletin and all the mainstream suc

I saw BB King in 1984 or 85 here in KCMO at the Uptown theater & being a drunken little punk rocker I tried to steal the personalized license plate off of his tour bus (I'm not proud of it but it happened , OK?).

I have always maintained that I was born the same night that Keith dreamed the satisfaction riff. My birthday is May 9, 1965. There was a recent spate of articles stating that the dream occurred on the 7'th instead of the 9'th. Does anybody know the story better than I do? I've always heard that they had played in Jacksonville that night (the 8'th) & KR woke in the morning

“I remember that one. It was a big outside show in the daylight. I wore, like, football clothes with yellow trousers. It’s all about the clothes, really.” Mick, you are thinking of 1981 at Kemper arena when Mick Taylor dropped in. In '75 you wore those stripey pajama type pants.
