...witness any event in Stones history, what would it have been?

I'd honestly say I'd like to have seen Altamont.

" ...witness any event in Stones history, what would it have been?  "


1. Keef's fall from the tree in Fiji
2. Sitting / Standing in the audience for their 1973 performance at Brussels'
3. Charlie punching Mick in 1984
4. The look on Mick and Keef's face as Mick Taylor quits the band ( why ? )
5.  Omaha , 1964 ( six hundred people in attendance at a 12K arena  --- rectified in 2006 [ 17K for QWEST CENTER -- SOLD OUT ] )  

Well that's a funny and interesting question. For me it would be the famous "Kurhaus concert" in Scheveningen the Netherlands in 1964, august 8. Their first live concert outside of England. But I was 12, almost 13. So that was out of the question. Charlie punching Mick would be second (LOL)

---

MAdison Square Garden in 1969.

GREAT question...

The death of Brian Jones
The Dirty Work sessions
On the tour bus anytime in US 65-66
When Cohl said to them "40 shows for 40 million""

This is an easy one. I'd like to know where they really were October 27, 2006. They certainly were not in Atlantic City.

I know I was in bumper to bumper in Delaware when I found out the show canceled...went on anyway since room was non refundable

Front row at Brussels '73.

I Agree.

I'm with Joey, in part...I'd like to have seen the show at Harrisburg's Farm Show Arena in 1964 (300 people in attendance, rectified in Hershey 2005), but mostly, I'd like to have seen Charlie punching Mick for calling him "his drummer".

:whydontcha :nomames

Would you really have liked to witness Brian's death?

To prevent it (maybe)

Sure...Not in a macabre way...or as an accomplice...but like in a Ghost Of Christmas Past sorta way...to see what actually happened...i know
someone ( the caretaker?) confessed a while ago...but in 40 years time...the mind can change things up...

as for the others on my list...the Dirty Work sessions to hear what the hell they were thinking...were eyes rolling? Or Did they actually think it was some great opus...
The US tour bus...just to see/hear their impressions of America a the time...
The Cohl thing...to witness the beginning of the end of the rock n Roll concert as we knew it to be...as well as their astonishment and disbelief...

It is a fixed point in time...it cannot be changed...as i said abve...only to witness these events and not partake/change them

Toronto for both 72 shows
Oshawa for the Blind Show
Front Row Detroit 75
Fifth Row MSG III in 98
Keith and Winos Massey Hall 93
Nashville 2006 next to B Stage to hear Lovin Cup

wait.....I was!!!!!

But to be at Brussels would be the ultimate time trip!

When they decided to record sweethearts together.
so i could've bitch slapped them both...

I know, I was only kidding

Been giving this one some thought.
Like to have seen the band with Brian and then with Mick T.
Also would like to have seen Charlie punch Mick!!!!


Good thread.

My three 'must see' Stones events all seem to relate to Chicago :

1) Staying in the Playboy Mansion when they played there in 1972.

2) Checkerboard Lounge with Muddy in 1981

3) Gotorollme confronting Tele after he tried to avoid a bar tab in 2006.

part of me has always wondered what really happened, did he die alone was someone there watching, maybe holding him under....
