Hey I had an external hard drive fail on me so I am in search of the audio for Oro Medonte 2019 - I believe it is missing one of Keith's songs but otherwise is all there. If anyone could post these files, I would very much appreciate your kindness. I have been unable to track this recording down in my replacement quest.

For a pretty good Stones rip, check out The Beaches' "T-Shirt". They are an all-female rock n roll band from Toronto. Opened for the Stones at Burl's Creek.

Bob once quoted this "Work while ye may for the night of Death doth come when no man shall work" as the reason why he continues to do it. Also the epiphany in Lucarno in 1987 yielded a similar reaction and he ditched all star backing bands and began the Never Ending Tour. He has said that what he does is like having a trade and he still chooses to ply that trade.

As a diehard Jays fan I don't want to give up but they are in deep trouble. To win the series I think a sweep at home is required. I think Cleveland's pitching exposed their Achilles heel which is pitchers with good breaking stuff can shut them down. Hell the Jays gave up four runs in two games which should have been enough for a split. But things will likely be different in Toronto bec

It is my understanding that Mick had grave concerns about Woody for this tour because Woody had entered his freebasing period and was not seen as reliable. Keith vouched for Woody but was hardly a model of sobriety himself. Some of these issues plagued the rehearsal period. It is true that the band was woefully under-rehearsed when they began at JFK. I attended the Orchard Park NY show (Buffalo)

I believe Keith has always related this story because he wanted people to know that it was NOT about Angie Bowie because that was the speculation at the time. Keith was not a particular fan of Bowie and did not want anyone to think he was paying tribute to the Bowie camp

Personally I think if Bob goes out in front of that Desert Trip crowd and plays the same twenty songs he was playing last tour then he is going to bomb. The Sinatra tunes are great and all that but I just can't see them going over at this event and while I like Tempest I don't think that crowd is going to want to hear five tunes from that. In recent years Bob has adjusted his setlist in

Truth be told while I understand why it is so widely loathed, I like Sweet Neo Con partly because it was one of the first records to really blast the Bush 43 mentality - it holds no punches and Mick usually does. I get that it is weak musically and it's not my favourite Mick vocal from that record by far but there is something about that song I respect way more than, say, Highwire.

The writer knows not of what he speaks. The Rolling Stones were named after a Muddy Waters song who was in his fifties when they took the name. They sat at Howlin Wolf's feet at their own request. They played with Muddy in his eighties. Mick Jagger has redefined what it can mean to be a seventy year old. When I saw his dancing during the instrumental section of Midnight Rambler at the first

I would say that we sometimes downplay the significance of 1963-1967. First of all I don't think you can top the Stones in that era when they played blues or rock n roll covers. Listen to The Beatles take of Carol from the BBC sessions and compare it to the Stones and there's no doubt in my mind that the Stones sound better. They were a great band from the start and the 63-67 era also f
