Unfortunately I couldn't be there, but from the videos I've seen, it seems to have been two fantastic concerts. However the concerts are to be experienced and not seen on youtube, it's another world if you're there. Anyway, I liked a lot of videos... it was nice to see Ronnie in good shape again, I was pleased to see Eric too who hadn't seen him in a while, nice to see

Quotegotdablouse Interesting idea to have Bill play on the records...but he didn't play much on DW or SW did he, so his influence/coloring of the sound was already a distant memory when he left, gone were the days of Miss You or ER. Bass on ER 4 out of 10 songs are played by Ronnie, 1 song by Keith, so Bill only plays bass on 5 songs.

This is a fantastic album and one that I always enjoy listening to, I'm listening to it right now. It could be a Faces album, since everyone participated, but Rod's then-manager wanted to launch Rod's solo career. Ronnie had a big input....obviously Maggie May is great, but like everything else on the album.

Don't get me wrong, but I find that people's health, even if they are public figures, is right to remain private, I don't like speculation about health, let's not forget that they too are people who have the right to keep diseases and everything else for themselves. it concerns their privacy.

I was intrigued by the title of this topic, I still wish them 80 years, but I really believe that today they are taking one day at a time, as it should be. Personally I think that if by chance one of the three were no longer available, they would not continue, not because they are not replaceable, I think it was difficult for them to replace Charlie, but in that case they were already on tour, t

QuoteKoen Why does every Ronnie Wood thread turn into a comparison with Mick Taylor? I think musical ignorance, although it is true that he replaced Taylor so sometimes it comes naturally, but no one ever compares Taylor to Brian J. After that it is legitimate to prefer the Taylor period, or that of Brian or that of Wood, it's just a matter of taste. But they're all so different music

Pics of Mick have also shown up recently, and it has been noted that he doesn’t seem t

Do you remember when EXILE came out how the press and critics reviewed it? Not like a masterpiece, on the contrary... It has gained fame as a masterpiece (even a bit controversial) over time, thanks mostly to its history. Certainly it was the worst mix of the year.

However I believe that in some cases of other artists it could also be true, but not for R.S. You just have to listen and watch, both Keith and Ronnie never play a song the same way, not counting the mistakes. Then really imagining that there is someone under the stage, playing Keith's parts makes you laugh, Keith starting a solo and then suddenly stops and greets someone from the audience
