QuoteRisingStone When The Rolling Stones’ first ever shows in Japan in January 1973 were announced — and they were later cancelled due to Mick’s prior drug bust — the reaction from some of the fans over there back in the day was like, “So they are coming to Japan at last. Too late.” The Beatles had visited the country in 1966, beating them by seven years. The fans felt they were waiting for them

Quoteironbelly Did Mick and Keith approve the leak about nine Tattoo You tracks to the media? Hasn't Ronnie leaked stuff before, even to the point that Mick has said in interviews "Ronnie and his mouth" or something like that, but smiling while he says it.
