Their as different as night & day, mick would never allow himself to get drunk & do those in concert drunk raps as Janis did, can you imagine Janis dancing like Jagger?? she was so high & drunk she could hardly stand up, I'll never forget the drunken rap she did in Toronto (it's on her In Concert album) back in the 70's, liquor stores were closed on Sunday, & she was going on about not being able to get a drink on Sunday, "that's the one day of the week you need it most" & "I don't understand this town, can't get a drink on Sunday" but I'm sure she got lots of drinks, but Jagger & her are not even close in stage manner & personalities.

The Rolling Stones ain't just a group, their a way of life-Andrew Loog Oldham.

One artist whose legendary reputation always passed me by. Ok, a very tragic figure but there's a subtle difference between emotive blues wailing and sounding like a cat in labour.

Here's a new handle: "Ten Thousand Threads" So long sucker

it would be one thing if he only started ten thousand threads...if only they didn't suck worse than a sexually abused vacuum cleaner.

Once you are here-it's expected you stay. Why waste long cultivated posting skills somewhere else? The outside world will not understand." -Nellie
