Verne regrets Rolling Stones opportunity

Day 12, 03:03 GMT
By Matt Risley

Terry and Verne have shared their experiences with The Rolling Stones, leading Verne to label himself a "dumbass" for passing up an opportunity to see them record.

Verne, Terry, La Toya and Coolio had been talking about LA and sharing stories about celebrities they knew when Verne and Terry realised that they had both met the rock veterans.

Recollecting a personal invitation from the group to watch them record new material, Verne said: "I could've gone to see them, but like a dumbass, I didn't go."

Steering the conversation back to the many urban myths surrounding the group, Terry confirmed that Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood are both intimidating drinkers.

"I saw Ronnie put away ten screwdrivers in just the time I spent with him," he said. "And even though they could've done, they didn't act like they owned the place."

Verne agreed with Terry before concluding the discussion by reiterating: "I still kick myself about passing that [opportunity] up."

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