On the Tattoo You deluxe edition, it sure sounds like him on the drums. It has that distinct playing on the ride cymbal which is his style of playing. And now I see he played that tune with the Stones at the Watts tribute. Interesting. edit: After listening to the song on youtube that was posted years ago, my suspicion that the drums were redone recently seems to be incorrect. I was wrong. Car

I've never seen an induction ceremony from start to finish so I'm not sure if they have a host spending lots of air time making jokes and whatnot, but if that's the case, it reminds me of the Oscars when so much of the monologue or jokes in between giving out awards should be cut back so the non-celebrities that win an award for best make up or whatever can have a little more than

Ringo also did an interview on Rick Rubin's podcast which occurred on the day Charlie passed away. (also on Spotify, and wherever you listen to podcasts). At the beginning Ringo talks a bit about Charlie and also at the 39 minute mark he tells an amusing story involving him and Charlie and John Bonham. The entire interview is very good! Lots of interesting tidbits.

Quotejumpingjackflash5 Yes. If Jordan does not improve during the fall tour, they should consider doing a contest for the new drummer, this time with enough time to choose. Mr. Jordan can be one of the candidates. So, Steve Jordan was selected as the touring drummer. But, because you don't like him, you want the Stones to have a contest and audition other drummers, but also keep Steve Jordan

If you care so much about the quality of the sound then don't judge the quality of the sound based on a 60 second cellphone recording, which is not an accurate representation of the sound you're listening to.

I realize this is a discussion board and every detail of every thing the Stones have ever done has been analyzed and scrutinized and studied, and that is great, but good lord, I really hope you guys aren't like this during an actual concert!

If any of you are in a band, next time you play a gig have someone film 30 seconds of it on a crappy sounding cellphone and post it on here so I can criticize the mix and how your band sounds. I'll judge your entire show and any future shows based on that 30 second clip from a crappy sounding cellphone. Thanks!

This tour could be the very last time we see these musicians on stage together and so many people are complaining. "It's not the Stones". Well, no. It's not. Charlie is gone. If you go in expecting to get what you've had before, you'll be disappointed. Enjoy it for what it is. Also, watching a 60 second crappy cellphone video is no way to judge a performance. Or even

One person on this thread says their "source" says cause of death was related to Charlie's liver. Another person says his heart. And now another says their source says it was throat cancer.

I'm assuming the same thing that has happened before every tour will soon begin. We'll get setlist leaks from the rehearsals that will have songs that they've never performed live, we'll all get super excited about that, then when the concerts start again none of them will have those songs, just the usual ones. Maybe they'll throw in one "rarity" into the mix.

The Stones are older. They're grandpas. Mick doesn't sing certain songs on stage the way they were written. There's no way a movie like C*cksucker Blues would be greenlit by Mick and the others. Unless the naughty bits were edited out but then it wouldn't be the same movie.
