Keith Richards will be there doing what he always does. He never was perfect. Doesn't need to be. It has never been just about the music to me. I could give a rip how technically perfect a musician is. It's about how much joy is delivered. The personalities have a lot to do with it.

Do you ever get the feeling we all have been fooled? After five years of silence from the band we get this - another solo performance from Mick Jagger.
Do we need that? Was that what we were looking for?

Fooled? Stones haven´t promised anyone anything, there are many here that seem to think so. The big touring days are over, though there are some idiots here that refuse to think so over and over again saying they will do this and that, announcing this and that and that they even were supposed to play SNL. How dumb can some be?

Some of those "idiots" know more than you do. Deal with it!

Will all those gambling money for a Stones appearance on here now go to a local charity and donate the money.
The Stones announced nothing happening tour wise this year.
And please do not start on a Stones show at Hammersmith in June.

I dunno. To some on this board, Keith is done for good and want nothing to do with him. If that's what karma is then karma is in fact truly a bitch.

LOL! What's wrong, Jeppe?
I wasn't talking about myself here. However, there are people here on this board that get information before you and I do.
There's not reason for shooting the messenger here.

Well, then you missed my point, there are only two people here that are reliable sources and i wasn´t talking about them. Rest of you saying they will do this and that announcing this and that etc. know nothing. And once again, how the hell can some of you be so dumb to think they would actually do SNL? A three year old could understand that they never would do that with a dysfunctional guitarplayer.

I agree about SNL (where did I say that the Stones would appear there, anyway?), but you keep saying the same about 50 ann. shows as well, contradicting the very same sources you say are credible.
From what I know, your wish on your website may come true...

A wish may always come true and i don´t always agree with my fellow stonesvikings. The wish on our site has nothing to do with the two sources here that are reliable.

This is the kind of argument I don't understand. Certainly, Keith has never been a technically perfect guitarist. We're all Stones fans...we're not listening to the band for technically perfect playing. But there's still a difference between good and bad playing. I need a little more than just joy being delivered. My neighbor could plug in a guitar and bash away at it, but just because he has a smile on his face while he's doing it doesn't mean he's any good or it's worth listening to.

Still a lot of unwarranted Keef bashing going on here. What are bashers getting at anyway? MJ and KR go together like white on rice. Lots of knocks on Keef...he is getting older we know, and has some real medical issues. Doesn't mean he can't play, but don't expect 1972 KR anytime soon. Same with Mick who last night showed a pale comparison to Some Girls MJ. MJ hasn't "sang" since 1975, he's been "shout singing" with that flat unvaried monotone since 1981. I have little doubt that both MJ and KR are friends and business partners, and that KR was not "betrayed" or offended by MJ on SNL last night as some demented posters has transmitted from mom's basement. Grow-up, KR was probably sleeping like 3/4 of America was when MJ did SNL. It all equals a fart in the end. We're lucky we still have them with us. Solo Stones are fun, but not very interesting. MJ was great last night, but even I could make the Poo Fighters sound good.
Sometimes I wonder if maybe Keith isn't seriously ill. I sure hope not, but he strikes me as someone who wouldn't say a word to anyone but his immediate family. If they don't pull this 50th anniversary thing off then something is truly amiss.
I think you are very close to the truth here.

People still line fairways to see 82 year old Arnold Palmer, 72 year old Jack Nicklaus, and 76 year old Gary Player in made for TV golf competitions. These guys are some of the greatest names in golf, but can't play anywhere close to the way they played 20, 30, 40, and 50 years ago. But they still deliver "moments of magic" and the fans absolutely love and respect them and can never get enough of them no matter how bad they play. Same for Keith, and he can probably play better today (relatively speaking) than Arnie, Jack, or Gary can in their sport. Of course if his playing becomes so bad that the casual fans become turned off by it, and stop coming to concerts in droves, then certainly it will be time to consider retirement. I don't think he has reached that point yet, despite his many critics on forums like this.
