Ronnie Wood on stage with Rod StewartRONNIE WOOD used his Faces reunion with Rod Stewart at Hard Rock Calling to get back into the swing before setting out on the road again with The Rolling Stones.As they celebrate their 50th anniversary next year, The Rolling Stones are being flooded with festival offers and a world headline tour deal.
Backstage at HRC on Sunday, Ronnie Wood revealed: “I need the practice of playing to a big crowd again, so I was chuffed when Rod invited me down.”
While nothing is yet set in stone, the 64-year-old is certainly on a mission to get healthy enough for months on tour.
Ronnie refused all offers of free booze in the Hard Rock VIP tent, only stopping for a few nachos.
I’m told: “Ronnie only wanted to drink cola and was more interested in checking his hair on the side of a truck as he made his way to the stage than any of the cocktails on offer.”
