Thanks for all your hard work BV as a newbie who will be hard pressed to get to any of the shows, this is a great board

I agree - too much intrusion is not good but nice to know she is there for him, nevertheless!

Interesting she prefers not to appear in the arrival and exit photos or does she travel separately ? Sorry if this is the wrong thread but it's nice to think keith has his soulmate along now ronnie is occupied with his new wife.

Has anyone seen patti? Alexandra Richards says in her Australian news interview that "mum is touring with dad now she has finished looking after us "
Forum: Tell Me

Gosh, feelings run deep on this board! But is it not amazing to see if it is possible to connect and be interesting in the face of technical decline ? Why does it have to be seen as sad/ disappointing / embarrassing if skill is not the same as 30 years ago ? Keith has said he is going to age in public. He has chosen a solo song to reflect that, a simplified way of playing and has embrace

Is there anywhere that the 1999 chris evans TFI Rolling Stones special can be downloaded ?

Keith urban was great too - really happy to be playing and gave as good as he got
Forum: Tell Me

Sounds as if keith is not as burned out as some of the posts have suggested !
Forum: Tell Me

what's the impression of Keith's playing ? It sounds to me that the overall verdict after the first 4 shows, is that he has steadily improved since 2012, although good days and bad days as ever. He seems to be learning to play in a different but still compelling way in spite of technical difficulties due to lack of practice for a few crucial years/ health problems etc etc.

Saw them in hyde park 2 and they were fantastic - my very picky neice saw them at glastonbury and said it was the best gig she had ever been to ( in spite of lots of twitter negative feed back )

So how was it chaps
Forum: Tell Me

I never saw them live in Their heyday. I was expecting it to be terrible at HP2 and it was absolutely fantastic - I saw no sign of torture any where in the park ( or outside the perimeter wall ) . Whatever it is they are capable of doing , on a good night they can do it to a very high standard - the suspense is knowing if they will pull it off on your particular night.
Forum: Tell Me

Great summary Doxa. I think it is really interesting to see Keith struggle with decline but not be defeated by it - others find it sad but curiously I think it is one of the most interesting parts of the show
Forum: Tell Me

Thanks stoneage. I guess you are not that keen on it ( I never know if posts are to be taken seriously or not ! ) I actually do like slipping away, although I don't think I would be considered a hard core fan amongst experienced IORRians Well. As I was trying to say when I started the thread, I really like the way keith seems to accept his limitations and still try to communicate some

Will lisa be at the oscars ?

Do you need to be a hard core stones fan to enjoy this song ?
Forum: Tell Me

I wonder if any of the younger members of the audience connect at all to slipping away (as opposed to Happy or BTMMR which are much more about the concerns of being young)

What is it that makes it so good and why does it divide opinion so much ?

Good point - it's tempting to overanalyse !
Forum: Tell Me

Mick always describes it as blues ( but says he doesn't really like it ) but I LOVE the stripped video from the 19990s and I wish they'd rehearse if or play it in a club. Great lyrics too.
Forum: Tell Me

Keith has often talked about the challenge of ageing in public. He has also talked a lot about using his music to express things he cannot say in words and how in concert he is always asking the audience the question " do you recognise this feeling ?" "Slipping away" is not his most memorable song but, in the midst of Mick and Ronnie defying age and technical decline, i
