Don't want to think too far past Hackney Diamonds already, but I can't help but wonder if we might get to hear the tracks that have been recorded between 2012 and 2019 with Charlie quite quickly, be it in the form of a yet another album or something else.

HA! Finally, I found out what the vocal production and arrangement in the chorus of Angry reminds me of with all the consonant-aligned doublings and falsettos So by trying to have contemporary production, it ended up sounded like pop rock that was in the mainstream 11 years ago hahaha. It's a shame, because I like the instrumental and the performance both by the band and Mick. The

By the way, anyone else hoping for an appearance of either Mick or Keith on the "Conan O'Brien needs a friend" podcast? Macca did it too. They belong to the best interviews with stars out there, at the moment. Conan has the same musical knowledge as Fallon but a more stable ego, which leads to great conversations.

Was really beautiful to see them together yesterday. But I'm really starting to worry about Ronnie. Especially comparing to Mick and Keith, it seems as if you can see the mental processing in his eyes when he's asked a question. Of course, he's been through a lot and we're just happy that at least the three of them are still alive. But it's still making me sad somehow.
