Quotepalerider22 I really looked forward every day to the ongoing discussion. There were some really excellent and thought-provoking posts on that thread and I don't recall many posts that crossed the line. I posted there a lot I don't think I ever mentioned Ron Wood or diminished him in any way. My main point was really to add to the mix, not compare anyone or denigrate the band. I

QuoteMr. Jimi Didn't Keith write about the Marquee show in Life? I remember him saying that it was a few days after the UK tour and he wasn't in great shape for that gig. He showed up late and they were all bitching at each other and dealing with the camera crew or something like that. Wasn't it also performed in front of family and friends for a TV special and certainly not a

I'm hoping he will at least be included in the LA Sticky Fingers show that Bjornulf says will occur. That would be sweet, exciting and respectful to the Taylor fans and MT himself. Probably the most we can hooe for at this point. As amazing as this sounds, it would really be a no win situation. If they do a SF LA club/theater with MT and he kills it, it will only make the decision to no

Quotecamper88 There are at least three kinds of lyrics in Stones songs: 1. The lyrics that we hear and understand and know pretty much what they mean, although we may disagree on the exact meaning or historical reference. 2.

Complete craziness. There are about 10-15 people out of 15-20,000 people who are there because of MT. I love him, have seen him 4 times solo, saw the RW/MT Jimmy Reed shows, saw two fantastic shows in Philly in 2013, but for real, his appearance or not for one tune, plus his bit of acoustic on Satisfaction means virtually nothing even to the hardest of the hardcore. He hopefully made a buck or t

IMO, Texas 1978 is every bit as good as the MTaylor shows, but MUCH more enjoyable to watch as there is good camera coverage all around and a great, fun, engaged vibe from the band, rather than the detached, Gods on Mt Olympus vibes of 72 & 73.

I think we're looking at "creative journalism" here. I was at the height of my Stones mania, and I don't remember ever hearing about any cancelled solo tour. I'm sure if tickets ever went on sale (again, I don't believe this actually happened), it would have been big news if he couldn't sell tickets. Just doesn't make any sense.
