QuoteTopi QuoteHairball This entire mini-tour has been a bit unorthodox with Mick getting sick, Sasha missing a show, not to mention the long 11 day break between Liverpool and Milan, and the long 8 day break between Hyde Park I and II... Well, all their tours have been "mini-tours" since, what, 2012 now? When does a mini-tour become a tour, and is there a maxi-tour? I’d say

He had a vision, he picked the bandmembers, named the group and functioned as a manager in the beginning. Lauhable to pretend Stu started anything. He’s just a strawman for Keith and some of you Keithettes. Read the thread. It’s not that simple. And he didn’t ‘pick’ any members, nor

In a handwritten letter by Brian Jones to an early fan, dated May 4, 1963, Jones himself says this about it: "The band is really an amalgamation of two bands. The one being an R & B band I formed about a year ago, and the other being a group run by Mick and Keith in S.E. London. I was introduced to Keith and we decided to pool our resources, so with Stu from my band, and Mick from Kei

QuoteTheflyingDutchman That is very personal. The Rolling Stones are a Rock Band to me, with all kind of different influences. But when it comes to the blues: To me it was Mick Taylor. His lines and feeling represent melancholy, making me feel more blue when I'm in that particular mood. No other Rolling Stone triggers that feeling more than Taylor does, again, to me. ,

Quote24FPS It used to be that the Stones would take a blues song and put on their special filter. It would come out sounding just as good as the original, but different. Not quite as ragged, but still retaining the life of the song. Think 'Little Red Rooster'. Uptown, as opposed to country. On Blue and Lonesome they hew closer to the originals, without losing anything. This is under

To me, Blues is a feelin' - a sentiment. And I believe it is for the Stones as well. A feeling that implies truth, danger, sex, sadness, desire, anger, honesty. Grit. Eternity.
