QuoteDandelionPowderman Great version! Good to see Keith leading the band in the ending there. If people wonder why they still play BS, just take a look at Keith, and how much he enjoys playing it Agreed, so nice to see Keith really getting into it these past few shows.

Quotecrawdaddy QuoteHMS They dont play clubs anymore, it´s too hot in there. They have always complained about the incredible heat in such small venues. Too dangerous at their age, I think. They could use ventilators on stage but the cool air would make every bone in their bodies hurt like hell the next day. We have to accept that certain things are no longer possible for them. I do agree with

Yes Keith was fueled on a sandwich of drink an coke, that's Rock and Roll, he invented it , he honed it down to perfection and since the bang on the head he had to choose life, so Keith got the best of both worlds and at 76 we can't convincingly say he's paying the price can we, he's still doing his g

I think he's also smoking A LOT of weed...which I couldn't care less about, but I get the impression that that's his big vice now. Unfortunately at nearly 76 years of age, a few cigare

Deleted out of respect for Keith, lets hope these are the last shows so he can retire with most of his dignity intact.

Keithsman Keith probably thought wow we have picked the right guy here, now i can concentrate on nailing that rhythm guitar and do what i do best, and together we forge the best rock and roll band in the world. I have not noticed Keith restricting Taylor with his playing the way he did Ronnie, one reason i don't believe the official reason Taylor left the band, no way was Keith holding him

Another great show, what surprises me with these mini tours playing live a maximum of twice a week, ( 4 days or more between shows ) is that the band do get tighter and better rehearsed. I would imagine sitting around in hotels for four nights or more between gigs would make them rusty if anything.

Pretty even back then The one song that defines the evolution of the band during those 3 short weeks is SFTD. Other than a one off solo by Taylor in Oakland SFTD was strictly a Keith solo, Taylor rhythm affair. Somewhere down

Doesn't Keith come in with an intro when Mick gets too chatty, cuts him off I think talking to an audience is more of an American thing, saw Lionel Richie a few years ago and he talked and talked, he could have sang another half dozen songs for the time he took up chatting.

Yes Mick was very warm towards Keith during Rambler the other night, as tactile as I've ever seen him with Keith, these two have definitely settled their differences. Mick loves to see Keith sober and taking care of his playing as opposed to showboating. Mick needs all the backup he can get and all the Stones are supplying it to him in bucket loads. Maybe now Keith has played 4 shows a
