Quoteleteyer What about the bomb alert. Was DC if I remember correctly. It was Charlottesville, VA. I was there but didn't feel any panic. Concern yes, panic no. More panic for me at the '75 Greensboro show. Festival seating back in those days. Me and my brother were one of the first to arrive at the parking lot about 12 noon and there were thousands there by the time they open

No one has answered shortfatfanny's original question yet. Keith and Ronnie are playing their guitars but there isn't any sound coming out of them until almost the 1:00 mark on this video. I was at this show but don't remember details and have never seen the film. I always wondered what the beginning looked like since the boot i have has waves of audience noise that gets lou

Is there any one here who doubts they will tour in next year of so to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the band? And let's be real. Some of us attempt to come off as if we have insider info and we don't. For all we know they could already be recording, or have recorded, or have plans to record new material for the tour - and none of us would have a clue until the rest of the world k

QuoteEdith Grove Whatcha talkin' bout, Willis? Mick prides himself on never, ever falling on or off the stage. If anyone has a pic or footage of Mick falling during a performance, I'd love to see it! I can't prove it but Mick definitely fell on stage at the Greensboro 1975 show. I clearly remember him falling or slipping and then doing it again to pretend it was part of the

Didn't miss the Tour but regret not crashing the '78 Myrtle Beach show. We were at the beach after graduating high school and i should have tried to get tix outside the show. Saw them in Greensboro the very next week, or maybe the week before. Seen every US Tour since '75

My story is similar to hb's. I was 14 at the time and in my first year of high school in Northern NJ. First became aware of the Stones a couple years earlier, mostly from NYC radio but also things like Don Kirshner's Rock concert on TV. But once i saw Gimme Shelter on TV I was hooked. I remember scanning the tv section all the time wondering when they'd show it again (was it

Happy Birthday from Greensboro Mongoose. I saw the 75 Greensboro show too and we were probably at some other shows at the Coliseum in the 70's.

UrbanSteel thanks very much for all that you post on this site. I never get tired of watching this version of Happy. If there is any film of Keith more zonked out on stage than this i'd like to see it. How he got through some shows i'll never know. Mick is great taking care of him and carrying the vocals. He wants to let Keith do it but he just isn't able to make the whole

Catfish was a North Carolina boy (where's Lukester?). No question big money has impacted baseball, and all sports, in a negative way. But baseball is still baseball. I really get a kick out of running the kids baseball program here in my small NC town. In fact, i'm comparing a few different baseballs right now as i get my baseball orders ready for the season.

Bingo - i know what you mean. Bugs me that the Yankees spent so much money in that short period of time a month or two ago. It ain't right. Of course, i'll forget all that the first of April and i'll be snarling at all those pink Red Sox hats i see on women in the supermarket during the season.
