Yesterday night in NYC :

He sure has a sexy beautiful wife, when I first told someone he got married to Iman, the person thought I said a man, Bowie has aged great, considering all that Cocaine he did in the 70's, compared to this picture.

Considering his lame playing on SAL(bless you Ronnie for filling the gaps) , I think Keef should shut the fuck up...
Bowie called the Stones tour the "Barnum" a few years ago, and was fuckin right...

I love Keef but he really tend to become a old fart.

Mick's sparkling cutaway jackets are certainly "Barnum"

And that L'Wren girl sure looks like she's straight out of some barnum... Didn't she had a part in that "Freaks" movie from the 20s?

Keith says what he feels and sometimes I'm sure is misquoted. If he can slag Zep then Bowie is certainly fair game.Bowie is notoriuosly cheap and no doubt resents the vast fortune the Stones have made touring behind their legacy.Keiths drinking is affecting his playing and ability to create new music.I wish he'd focus on that instead of lashing out at long gone folks like The Thin White Puke.

Actually Bowie is probably wealthier than Mick or Keith.

Quickly researched that in 1994 Mick was listed by Forbes with 90 million pounds...Keith at 70 million and Bowie at 20 million. I can only imagine how much the margin has widened since then.Thus my comment.

He made a load of money selling off the rights to his catalog in the late '90's and then the 2003-2004 tour grossed around a hundred million with a small production and without having to split the take. There have been no divorces or paternity suits the last few decades.

All the lists are estimates but the estimates coming out in the late '90's - early '00 put him way up in the upper echelons alongside McCartney and Elton John.

He ain't hurting for money and doesn't have any reason to be jealous. And his sporadic touring is personal choice, not lack of booking opportunities.

He founded Ultrastar which admisters fan clubs and fan club websites and which was used by the Stones in 2002/2003 so he is even making money off them. It makes Keith's comments all the more ridiculous considering their mutually beneficial relationships though it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't even have the first clue they were there.

Fair enough he may have no financial cares or concerns but I'd still bet he's well behind Mick and Keith.Anyway who knows for sure and they dont use me for tax prep.
