Something between the glimmer twins was festering throughout the
the American leg of the 1981 tour and with the firing of Jane Rose, Stones
long time executive secretary,
it boiled over into a mental hop scotch
chess match between the glimmer twins
“ Keith,had immediately hired her to look after his affairs as his manager.”
Pissing Mick off “ This made Mick crazy and the more authority
Keith gave Jane the angrier Mick became.”
“The Rolling Stones’ “private” jam session at Sir Morgan’s Cove
was supposed to be just that —
private — and also secret, with the Stones attempting to pass incognito
as the Cockroaches. [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]
But as the nature of the business would have it, there was a leak.
It occurred early in the day Monday after weeks of rumors.
And before the day was over, the local media would
claim that “history has been made in Worcester”

Sept 1981 deep in tour rehersal at Longview Farm in autunmal
maple –red Massachuetts the RS tried to get it to gether one
more time Jagger carred a calculator and appoinment book he tell
Woody’s ol lady, Jo to keep her “brats” out of his face Keith turned
a basment room (again w/the basement)
into his pool room where he and Woody drank, jammed and
complained about “Brenda”
one of their many name for prissy, diffident Jagger. Mick had insisted the musicans sign
a “NO DOPE AT THE GIGS” clause in their tour contracts and Keith who hated freebase
had personally guareenteed that RW wouldn’t use base on the tour.

Another clause provided that Mick stay completely off the stage while Keith
did his single number of the set.
Mick had made a lot of unilateral decisions about the tour that annoyed
keith He didn’t like the cheap looking Japanese pop art stage
sets he didn’t care about the film and cable tv rights Jagger
was sellin, and didn’t think t he Stones were in any shape to
do a concert film.
He was irked that Mick
refused to hire Bobby Keys for the tour and instead had
singned up Ernie Watts
Ketih despised Mick’s industrial “ cherry picker,”
that would project Mick over the heads
of the kids in the stadium shows like a ludicrous
pop preacher.

This was such a sore point that
Mick tired to leverage keith with it , offering to lose
the cherry picker if Keith promised there would
be no hard drugs on the tour” ( right)

Good morning South Philly pretzel munchers cheese steak much?”

The top 40 radio station blurring out “ ALL STONES ALL DAY “ bam boom crack
morning drive time “Satisfaction. ” Album oriented rock was sinking it’s frequency
with cuts from “ Tattoo You “ the college station was spinning the long,
long, long version
of “Slave.”

That morning my little rock n’ roller
cooked me up some eggs
Then she made some tea, kissed me on the cheek
And I turned on her TV

But my ear was riveted to the announcement coming from the radio
It was loud and clear “500 Rolling Stones tickets will go on sale this
morning 10 am at the JFK box office!” I shouted “Start Me Up!” Getting a ticket
would be a monumental feat difficult especially since it was only
the second show on the tour but
I was determined.

I hopped the A train
The talk was ‘bout tours, as Bill Taylor, a writer for the Philadelphia
Journal, would note
in a piece appearing the morning of the second show “
When the Stones come out from under their rock and hit
the touring trail- a phenomenon that happens regular as
clockwork every three years- what they do is something
which transcends mere music,”
I climb out exit JFK box office what a dump! All bleacher seating, worst
restrooms ever.

Mick Jagger held a press conference
announcing the tour a few weeks back
Yes it’s all coming back now the rolling Stones concert

3 years ago Mick was dodging foot wear. I wonder
what we’re gonna heave over
our shoulders
and onto the stage this year?

Maybe we'll get baptize.

The Stones double-entendred, three-word porn movie title

” Under my Thumb”
is used as an excuse
for the women to carry signs in protest, many angry feminists are holding
the side walk at
bay shouting at the Stones.
I know better than to hang out in a line with a bunch of drunken reprobates
wearing wrist
bans waiting to get their hands on a few Stones’ tickets
I needed to pee and I was waiting on a friend to stand in line for me.
But he was held up trying to get a wrist ban for the weekly government
cheese.

I was talking to Mr. Stones about the song “Hang Fire”
I corrected him and he thought I called him a “Lazy Bitch” I said “So sorry
I meant to say is that ,
during those out takes you can hear MJ improvising and He throws in the
lyric “ I had-it with you, hang-fire,” Possibly referring to Keef.
I told Mr. Stones I thought that would make a good title for a song someday.

Mr. Stones came back
with it saying “Lazy Bitch, The track portrays the depression state of a
country racked
by unemployment and poverty” he went on to say “ It has a cynical ring
since the people
described seem content to remain faltering at the bottom of the social pile-
the workingtitle Lazy Bitch confirms these suspicions
“The country dear friends is one
where I used to come from “ sings Jagger.
Mr. Stones continued “The single release was only
made in the states, the insinuation
perhaps too strong for an upfront single release on home territory.”

From Martin Elliot’s “RS’s complete Recording Sessions 1963-1989.”

Finally got my ticket now I was like everybody else
Break out the I Ching and drop that pickles down the hole- just then the
gates opened I was walking and chafing into the vast JFK stadium looking for
my seat thinking The inaudible and noiseless foot of Time. – Shakespeare page 39.
I detected the el supreme-o and the top of the stair where all the poor
folks are sitting

I dashed to the field nestled between center right Keith’s side the
stage I was in hog heaven, it was gonna be a long wait. Most of the people
were stuck in traffic jammed subway door lines

This the Skylord in a black limousine with the Traffic report if you’re
in the vicinity of the Rolling Stones
concert tonight and you are in your car
wondering why you’re not moving blame it on the Stones

The Stones are in town and everybody slowing down to take a look.

Traffic congested in every direction everybody trying to get
in the parking lot, oddly enough the parking lot is still empty
plenty of parking once you get here.

Traffic news twitter flash : NYPD APB

people dress in plastic bags directing traffic.

Little red roster lost his way on the streets of love traffic
backed up The North bound intersection
Eastbound I-95 A collision on south bond 405 oil tanker truck leaking,
spun out and now a fresh
layer of oil glossing over the divider lane north bound motorist
breaking out the lawn chair sucking
up the mess ejoying the oilgasm

People strarting to worry about their great grandchildren
living ten miles beneath the ground
they worry about their whole existence The whole damn thing's in doubt>

We got millions unemployed Some kids can't write
Some kids can't read Some kids are hungry
Some overeat this weekend.

Mick Jagger once wrote : You can follow the road to the mountain
Or the track leading down to the beach
You can go where your life go left or go right
It's you in the driver's seat.” that’s not necessarily true right now on
east bound 91 pass the bridges to Babylon motorist are leaving
their vehicles throwing away the keys and
punting ! East bound 91 backed up for miles, nothing
but brakes lights flashes as far as the eye can see.

traffic like a train wreck in middle of traffic jam motorist slowing down
westbound 210 inland Empire
added congestion due to the huge event, the Stones.

Downtown, Broad St. bumper to bumper frenzy, the surface streets looks
like stuff arteries there’s a steel guitar engagement
with all their faded junkies too people in cars trying to buy
stones tickets on the corner of West 8th Street and 6th Avenue .
Down fifty-third street they're spitting on face value tickets Yeah,
some called me garbage
When I was sleeping on the street I never roll And I never cheat
I'm filling a need I'm plugging a hole. The Subway filled with Stones
Pick pocket picketers waiting on the A-train to get to The show,

The Goodyear blimp dodging the news helicopters high above the stadium
down below the anticipation building up the mood was anxious people
hooting and howling yelling and whistling inching closer to the stage ready
to get rocked hard and fast by the Stones

everybody was wearing a beautiful buzz what a beautiful buzz indeed.
Frisbees colliding with giant beach balls, stranger stopping strangers just
to shake their hands, girls flashing guys, guys drooling all over each other.

I was ready for shuffling madness the crush ready for the push towards
the giant pink stage. Someone hand me my refeer back it was small.

I smoke the roach nothing happen then all of
a sudden everything look bigger the stage was enormous

I started getting hungry and
paranoid and I scrapped the sky then scoped out the stage all is quiet
except for the small roadie Keith’s side fussing around tinkering with some
knobs.

Soon after that it become a struggle
I couldn’t deny myself it would only tighten up I surge closer to the stage
the huge draped curtain in all its splendor, punctuated the stage pagentry
The mass began to bellow as one you can hear the piano chords warming up
than Duke Ellington’s classic song “ Take the ‘A Train” blurs
through out , soon takes over the sound system
The energy level is ripe The Rolling Stones will be so close you can
almost touch them and with that Bill Graham ‘s voice cracks the mic.

GOOD EVENING ROCKS OFF MEMBERS! THANK YOU FOR WAITING!!
WOULD YOU PLEASE WELCOME THE ROLLING STONES!!!!

Excerpts from “The Rolling Stones The Last Tour” by Peter Goddard

“Critics have flown in from London to L.A. and less than an hour into the first show
JFK all the workers and groupies Hangers-on record people have come to realize the
same thing: It isn’t working> The rolling stones are bombing in exactly the same city they
bombed in at the start of their last tour in 1978

Chord changes are being missed, words forgotten and the’s no trust, no energy
Overhead a tiny plane circles pulling a banner with a feminist
message complaingabout the words
“under my thumb,” some knew it might happen this way .
They almost expected it. Immediately before the Stones started out, friends
close to band whispered that this might well be “the last time.”

Wretched sinner unit! The path to Rolling Stones’ heaven lies here<>

Gimme the mic. damnit!

I was driving home early Sunday morning through Bakersfield
Listening to gospel music on the colored radio station
And the preacher said,

"You know you always have the
Lord by your side 'Cause if you're a sinner, he's gonna plug
his infernal modem in the wall,

belchin' smokeFire
and brimstone and flame And he's gonna download you straight to Rolling Stones Hell!!

I see a lot of fancy
Rolling Stones’ fans here today, wearing of real shiny clothes.

But that don't impress the Devil,
no, sir! Clap your hands if you feel the fire!

Viceroy : No, sir!

Preacher : Staright to hell… a men.

Viceroy: Straight to hell!

Preacher: So I ask you: Who will stand up and be saved? Who? from the cold, steel grip of the Rolling Stones’
hell never to tour again

Is it you! Jumping Jack Flash?! jump unto the cold, steel bosom of our congregation.

accept the principles of RollingStonesology on pain of eternal damnation in Rolling Stones’ Hell?…

Yes! sign me up.

The Stones did Broad St
They packed up the jet and rolled out west

“But they’ve already left for another city. Movement is almost an illusion on the tour.
It gives the appearance of change where there is, in fact, little change."

They’ll play in nearly identical concrete football stadiums through out the
country in nearly identical suburbs to nearly identical white,

middle-class audience, who’ll respond at nearly identical points in the show

Denver might just as well be Detroit.
Canada is now Dallas.
Mick says when the tour’s all over, he forgets about it completely."

“ The media attention has been intense. Buffalo television stations have posted
reporters outside the hotel the band’s in and are interviewing porters
and just about anything that moves and looks like
it might have anything to do with the Stones.

Jagger gasping for air says “Thank you! Hi everyone from Boulder to Denver!

Hey everybody! Right in the back, can you hear?! We’re gonna ,
a new one from our new
album it’s called 'Neighbors.”

From a fan "I first saw them in the 80s in Seattle.
Tattoo You had been released and I was about 11.
I told all my friends at school that I was going
to see The Rolling Stones. They had no clue.

My older sister and I hopped aboard the bus to Seattle
after spending a lot of time
and effort getting tickets. It's like playing the freakin' stock market.
Tickets go on sale and BANG!
You have about 22 minutes to purchase your tickets.
So we were on our way to Seattle

and my sister stands
in front of the whole crowd and said: "If anyone has pot or alcohol on them,
you better ditch it now 'cause my mom will kill me if my little sister
is exposed to it, or gets stopped at the border…"

She meant business.
We were on our way to see Mick and nothing, and I mean NOTHING,
would stop us. Of course, the show was FREAKIN' fantastic.
I don't even have to explain.
came home and told my mom I loved Mick Jagger and
my memorabilia collection expanded into space.
I bought every book, poster, picture,
record -- you name it. I think I have entered every
single contest andpromotion related to the Stones."

Ain't no girls prettier than the chicks at the Tangerine Bowl Orlando FL.
Yet another fan “I saw the Rolling Stones and Van Halen at
the Tangerine Bowl in Orlando, Florida in 1981 for $16.00!!!”
The Stones wreaked havoc downtown Orlando and split the scene
headed to hot-lanta into the chit ling circuit.

Alright -with-the-shoes-already one night I was throwing my shoe at the tv..
here's another story I found googling.....
"One night I was flipping around to ascertain if it was still true that with 100+
channels to choose from, there was still nothing on worth watching, when
I paused on Palladia, the HD music channel. They were showing
'Let’s Spend The Night Together' a somewhat mediocre movie of the 1981
stadium tour by the Rolling Stones.
It was a memory trigger that made me think about the night
I saw them on that tour.
They were playing big stadiums and outdoor shows before
tens of thousands at a time.
But for one night on the tour, they played
for about 4,000 people at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta,
and I was lucky enough to be there
How lucky? The announcement of the show and the beginning
of ticket sales happened at 2AM one night, and within two hours
the tickets were gone.
I basically woke up to the news of a sold out show.
However, being program director of a
rock station in Macon, I did what I always did …
call the promoter and ask for comps (“complimentary
tickets”).But the lady who’d always been able to come
through for me before told me “there are no comps for this show,
all the radio people have to pay for their tickets (!!!),
and we were only given enough
for the Atlanta stations. Sorry.”Bummed, I was.
But on the Friday afternoon before that Monday night show,
this nice lady called me out of the blue: “I’ve had a
last minute cancellation,
do you want two tickets?”Yes, indeedy. How much are they?
$32.50 each!?!
(this was twice the going rate for tickets in 1981) Gulp,
OK.I’d never paid that much
for a concert before. And I had also always been able to
take a camera, and use those prime comp seat locations
to get good concert photos.
But not only was this the first tour to break
the $30 ticket barrier, it was the first tour where
no cameras were allowed!"
Left shoe shuffle right shoe muffle
Ain't no girls prettier than the girls of Texas
The Stones had their sights set
on that there Texas shuffle.

Here's another memory. "Tickets were $29, if I remember correctly,
which was absolutely outrageous.
It was going to be their last American tour, though, so I and two
of my friends decided that we had to go.It was our last chance,
you see. The Rolling Stones - Oct 31, 1981 Cotton Bowl.

The concert was held at the Cotton Bowl, in Dallas, and there were
100,000 freaking people there. We were on the floor of the stadium, and it
was a combination carnival/madhouse/freak show of epic proportions.
have many memories of that day, but most vividly,
I remember the drug vendors.
Most of them had rainbow suspenders attached to cardboard boxes
and they looked like a very stoned version of a cigarette girl.
They walked the floor of the Cotton Bowl,
hawking their merchandise like carnival
barkers: Acid--five dollars a tab. Doobies.
Get your doobies here.I've got speed.
I wish I could remember the rest of the pricing,
but all that stuck in my mind was the price of LSD"

Peter Goddard excerpt from “The Rolling Stones The Last Tour”
Mick Jagger tells his story: So I was in restaurant one night , a nice one in NY
and there was a family at the next table . No one was paying any attention to anyone
else but then I heard-I couldn’t help it- the kid ask his father something. He wanted
to know which band was better, the Beatles or the Rolling Stones. ‘Well, I don’t know.”
Says the father. ‘Why don’t you ask him?' meaning me.
It made me feel like something out of history.”

Mother recalls young Mick on a seaside holiday, gleefully
kicking other children’s sand castles
his partner in crime Keith once ear piercing in june 1969 after “
about 15 mandrax by a jewler
who used a sewing needle and ice to calm keith down .
His extracurricular activities is collecting guns and knives
His drummer collects Civil War memorabiliatoy soilders and
Aribain horses

Their lead gitar' is bleedy insane ruanty
bird haired man boy. Rock Journalist Tiimothy White“his hair was spiky.
His wrists were bangly,his legs were spindly and knocke-kneed
as if he perpetually needed to pee. the bass player member
of the Royal Horticultural Society is a cradlle rocker

Bye bye New York.
"Whenever the Rolling Stones came to Cleveland,
we broke format and did non-stop hours of their music –
including rare and unreleased tracks. We called it the WMMS Rolling Stones Orgy.
When the Stones played their two WMMS World Series of Rock dates
at Cleveland Stadium in summers
of 1975 and 1978, 1981 we went non-stop Stones from Friday night
through early Sunday morning
Three of the venues the Rolling Stones played in from
the sixties through the nineties were demolished:
The Cleveland Arena, the Coliseum in Richfield, and Cleveland Stadium.
Only the Akron Rubber Bowl, where the Stones performed in 1972,
remains intact, for now. Good bye Cleveland. Hello St Louis St Paul

Mick joins Muddy Waters on stage
at Buddy Guy’s club, the Checkerboard Lounge. Keith,
Ian Stewart and Ronnie join in the fun as well
as Guy himself and his long-time partner Junior Wells.

The concert itself is very spirited and perhaps one of the best from this tour.
Spending several days in Chicago seems to have fired up the band.
The opening numbers are delivered at a frightening pace and it never lets up.
Bluesman Sugar Blue crashes the proceedings and reprises his harmonica in
“Miss You” to the delight of the band.
And this is one show where the horn section is really enjoyable,
especially in “You Can’t Always Get What You Want”.
The third disc of this set contains the soundboard of
the often-released November 22nd Checkerboard Lounge
set with Muddy Waters. It’s a treat to hear the band jamming
with the blues legend.
The interplay between Muddy and Mick and Keith is pure magic!
The only problem here is that only about half of the set is included.
Why the entire set wasn’t included is a mystery
and the only negative against this title. This oversight a side
Sweet Home Chicago 1981 is definitely worth having."

Motown! motor city.
"The Stones play Pontiac. Iggy Pop and Santana provide
the excellent double support-bill i remember being in the end
zone balcony opposite the stage - and the delay between the
video screen and the sound. and the house lights coming on for
you can't always get what you want...and yeah, it was freezing that night!!!

years since the Rolling Stones had toured the US,
and there was all kinds of talk
about how they were still going strong
although they were all around 37 or 38 years old at the time.
That's funny, because 26 years after these photos,
they're still the highest grossing (money wise)

"STONES AT THE CAPITAIL CENTER WASHINTON D.C. DEC 7, 8, 9TH
Concert Comments "CAUGHT A COUPLE OF THESE SHOWS ON THIS TOUR BUT
I SAW THESE CATS IN THIS SAME BUILDING BACK IN '72 THOUGH IT IS NOT
FAIR TO COMPARE 1981 TO 1972.ON 9/25 81 WE CAUGHT
THE DEAD IN BETHLEHEM THE STONES THE NEXT DAY IN PHILLY
THEN DOWN TO THIS VERY BUILDING AND CAUGHT THE DEAD ON 9/27/81
MAN WE WERE SOOOOOOO BURNT..” “have a bootleg of this on vinyl
that sounds better. The show was great!”“this is god-awful. Hopefully
Mick was a bit sick because otherwise i can not understand how
he can sound so awful.
Beyond that, it is embarassing to listen to this after listening
to the Brussells 1973 show
. Ron Wood, while i love the Faces, is just not a good fit.
And Keith is a shadow of himself - i cant stand the way
he constantly mugs for the audience now.”
“Saw the Stones in Phila. JFK 2 SHOWS & all 3 shows here
at the Cap. Center in '81. The Stones rock D.C.
everytime they come here.The Stones rocked the Cap.Center that December.
I made it to work after
all 3 shows! Long LIVE the ROLLING FKN STONES"

Pheonix Az. Bill Wyman's bloody book " We went onstage at 4:30pm
and played our usual set to 77,000 fans.
I wore my steel blue Nike suit .

Hal Ashby on hand filming.
We played a very good show in the sun to a good audience.

During 'Honky tonk Women, the Saloon Girls and
the bands’s girlfriends come onstage
from the wings and paraded .
We left a wonderful fireworks display,
which was probably the best one."

This next excerpt from a fan at the show
"It is December 13, 1981, Sun Devil Stadium. We have some
reasonably good seats,
have sat through Joe Ely and then George Thorogood and
the Delaware Destroyers.
The Rolling Stones are on the stage. The song is "Let Me Go".

Mick Jagger climbs down a ladder from the stage and heads into
the crowd with a wireless microphone.
He is suddenly running down the aisle that
we (Bonnie Braun, Susan and myself) are about 6 people over from.

In the first shot here you see him standing in the aisle (pink shirt).
In the next scene you can see me in the extreme lower left corner
(Levi jacket, shades).
You can't really see Susan, you can see Bonnie (hooded sweatshirt).
Jagger is still visible in the aisle. In the third shot, you can make
out the three of us well, but Jagger
is no longer visible, although you can tell where he
is (as before just behind the guy in the windbreaker
and the sunglasses).

To find us, start at the upper left hand corner and
head diagonally towards the center,
we are about halfway to the center, first me,
then Susan, then Bonnie.
This footage is from the film Let's Spend the Night Together,
which I have been trying to get a DVD copy of for years."

Keith and Woody are nervous for this was going to be on live television.

The show was taped for cable TV
and would be seen by 1,00,000 people
in seventeen American cities keith was pacing
around wondering what they’d got themselves into.
The pressures on him were considerable,
because to sing in tune properly he felt he couldn’t
“fool around” on stage.

Check this out from a fan ...
"I WAS AT THIS SHOW, IT WAS SNOWING THE MORNING OF
THIS CONCERT, AND I GOT
INTERVIEWED BY THE DAILY PRESS...why was I there? a Crazy quesion:
it the Rolling F@ king Stones,ok? The Greatest R 'n R Band in the World!
I was some 3 feet from the stage, taking photos of Keith, and his girl-
friend, then, taking photos of him! IT WAS AWESOME, still, to this day,
nohing beats this show "

Just a few days and you'll be back in your school
I'll be sitting around by the swimming pool
You'll be studying history and you'll be down the gym
And I'll be down the pub, probably playing pool and drinking
Yep, you'll be back in your class
Sucking up the teacher and trying to get an 'a' pass
Trying to hide your make-up and you're trying to flash your legs
Yeh, no sympathy from your spotty friends

I can't help myself, help it if I'm older than you
Over, over, summer romance
I need money so much, I need money so bad
And I can't be your mum, don't want to be your dad
I'm a serious man, I got serious lusts
Gonna have to do away with this greasy kid stuff

It's over now, it's a summer romance and it's through
I can't help myself, I can't help it if I'm older than you
It's over, over, summer romance

"Hey isn't that MJ?" Asked the horse at the end.

"Alright lets cut-out the crap."
Finally the last thread of this post wanna thank everyone
took the time to check it out I'm glad you enjoyed the insanity
here is some more.

Mick points to the left field bleachers calling his shot much like Babe Ruth.
he shuffles in to the senior cherry picker waving his micphrone
like a weapon

so out of control eager to
light up the Rolling stones ballon show, meanwhile
keef keeps the band together burning the candle right down.

I feel sick up here look out you people down below, Mick Jagger Pop icon
confusing to his minons

I'm out of control flying in my soup-up cherry picker

and baby it's a gas!

People elbowing and jabbing each other ribs, in front of the stage
now that’s not very Christian like at a Rolling Stones’ congregation

all the fans trying to get as close to the stage as possible and for what?
So they can hear them better?
Ofcourse not it was the attraction to the music,
gravity pure and simple.

One girl had her elbows resting on the person back shoulder
squashed in front of her back shouting
“I’m just trying to get one F* picture Just one!!”
Mick trying to keep up with Charlie smashing the snare
he's like a machine another dent on his high hat
his legs furiously slamming the kit.

Mr. Stones leaned on me and starting screaming.
You know what this place is,?! don't you?! don't you? You've
been here before. 3 years ago..

But you're afraid to review it! aren't you?! Aren't you?!!!

Why? Because you don't want anyone to know,
do you?!!! Do you?!!!!!! It’s really true you can’t always
get what you what to steal just listen to
the London Blah-blah choir
crescendo on that two stepper there.
The Stones!!!!"
I was so wasted all I could think of was the ballons
Mr.Stones was about to go insane he started off by yelling in my ear

"I'm giving it three stars because The Stones are the Stones!
and longevity means success!!

If you do venture in, even on a dare, even on a double
dirty dare, wear the sunglasses,
okay? You don't want your boss to see you here with the Stones.
