I'll FINALLY be able to bill my band as the Greatest Rock & Roll Band in the world. Sooo tired of having to refer to ourselves as the 2nd greatest for all these years.

I'm sure the market for Stones tribute bands will rise a bit. It seems the Stones have kinda become a tribute band to themselves since 2005 or so. peace

We're not a Stones tribute band... I just want to use the title.
I don't know that I could bring myself to be a part of a Stones tribute band... I've got way to much appreciation for the way THEY play their songs to be part of an "official" watered down version. Don't get me wrong, I've got nothing against tribute bands (and actually enjoy some of them), I just wouldn't want to be a part of one. Playing a couple of Stones covers a night with my band is enough to keep me happy. Although, if my current guitar player doesn't stop playing the full, six-string open G chord as his intro to "Honky Tonk Women", we're going to lower the number of Stones tunes on the list by one as it's DRIVING ME CRAZY

I wonder if, when playing Stones songs, guitar players even bother with open G, when covering 'Brown Sugar' or "HTW'..or 'Start Me Up', or the many others that might be played more Stones-like if that tuning was used..
the guitar players in the bands I've played in never bothered with it..or any other open tuning for that matter..
and we did a fair amount of HTWs, Tumbling Dices, Brown Sugars..

Yup I hope the official retirement announcement will prompt hoarders to liberate the tapes they had been sitting on.

Wait, what? My ears were starting to adjust to all the crappy audience recordings out there…lol Honestly your comments reminded me of a Grateful Dead board I was a part of some time ago. Never expected it here…haha

How will you adapt to the world where the Stones are no longer an active entity?

I don't have to. Too used to them not being an active entity.
