Wow, thanks, Addicted and Silver Dagger! I was at the two shows before that...don't recall seeing that much affection between the two, except in Shine a Light, which could have been directed in those spots. Plus, they don't usually stand next to each other for the final bow, do they, these days? That might explain Charlie's look of surprise. :-)

Wow, STG, interesting that you revived this topic, as I was thinking about the show a few days ago. I would definitely see it again if it was near me. Very nice skimming through the discussion.

How about Saturday October 3rd, Columbus, OH Nationwide Arena? Setlist to come later... (Thanks for the topic, SGT!)

I wonder which rehab would take Ronnie now. I hear some have given up, no wonder, he's bad for their reps. Dangit, I thought he had stayed sober for a while this time. Time for a tour/new rehab?

QuoteSilver Dagger Didn't Keith say that he when he was at his most out of it he could still beat Mick at tennis? Yup, Keith said even when he was on heroin, he could. Here's a quote from Jessica West's book What Would Keith Do?: “When I was a junkie I used to be able to play tennis with Mick, go to the toilet for a quick fix and still beat him.” Those two boys boxing do

How about "That said"? My impression is that those there were quite well-behaved, considering how the roads closed down, the weather and the size of the crowd. Peace, love and happiness, to a certain extent, supplemented by the drugs. Ang Lee's movie is coming out this month, Taking Woodstock. It's more about the planning than the festival itself, I think.

Ah, I had forgotten about Linda Ronstadt's Tumblin Dice. Thanks for your tune suggestions, everyone--I'm trying to find some of them now.

Speaking of that, I actually like Devo's version. It's different, very fast. Some of you may know it.

He has definitely had a few tweaks, looks good, imo. He played more songs after the two for Letterman, five more, for the large crowds gathered outside. Nice.

6853, thanks for the question! I feel pretty good, will feel better when the real break from the paid work comes along in a few weeks...

I agree that Michael took these steps to a new level in a new, contemporary context, and added many more. Almost all creative people, imo, even those called geniuses or unique talents borrow heavily from the past. Fred Astaire, featured in the video along with many others (mainly black tap dancers of the first half of the 20th century) told Michael he was a good dancer, a compliment I und

QuoteGlimmer Twin Am I really the first one here to reveal that I share my birthday with a Rolling Stone? Charlie Watts turned 26 on the day I was born. It's quite an experience to hear 75.000 people sing "happy birthday" when it's your own. (Stones concert in Groningen, 2 june 1999) That does sound great, GT. Someone above said they had July 26th, same as Mick's.

Beelyboy, I very much liked him Elysian Fields. His reaction when she turned him down was priceless, more so considering who he is, as you say, a subject fascination. I enjoyed that restaurant scene.

Quoterollmops Would have MichaelJackson been able to fulfill his contract and do those 50 shows? Anybody knows how the rehearsals went down?. Was he able to perform? After reading a little bit about him on the internet, it seems that he was frail and not super confident as he should have been to accomplish such a work? I didn't like his music that much because I tend to associate it with the

I think it's sad that he had sold out all those July shows at the O2. He had cancelled the first how many? RIP, Michael.
