Quotedmay Outside of Bad Company, The Black Crowes and Joe Cocker, can any of these folks be considered rock'n'roll? Chubby Checker had one monster hit but I'd never call it rock'n'roll. As for the rest...hmmm? Ain't no way, Jack. Rock and Roll and dance go hand in hand. There is not one person from 2 to 92 that has never done The Twist. I believe it’s also the onl

They didn't check it, but they have written "Rolling Stones" on it? somebody could have put the wrong tape in the boxes or somebody marked the tape to put the aside to record the Stones (but it never happened), etc. Good point.

Quotetreaclefingers QuoteTravman87 Very interesting announcement just came out. Beyonce is performing at the Tottenham stadium in June around the same time the Stones were due to and for four nights. Might be no connection but it’s weird timing. Do you think they told the Stones they wanted her instead? Well, it's hyper speculation, but, if we're going there and you're a business
