My hunch is that Keith knows he doesn't have the stuff anymore—just like a ballplayer knows when his body won't do what it used to. Mick knows it, too. Keith's default setting is to bluster about "getting the boys in line," but it's all hackneyed pr at this point.

The fact that Mick agreed to do this says a lot. Do you think he would've spent time listening to outtakes if it weren't the last resort, so to speak? And he brings back Taylor!

Keef must be pissed that Jagger is taking the lead on the project. From his perspective, I can totally see his point.



If he is, its not like it was beyond him to get his finger out and do something about it!

Hope that hunch is right.

I'd hate to see Keef channeling Willie Mays-as-Met for the sake of one last roundup...

Good point, hadn't thought of that..

On the other hand he'd already hinted several times before that he missed Taylor's guitar playing, particularly in that long Wenner interview in RS in 1995. He realized, a bit too late, that replacing Mick by Ronnie had been a mistake at least musically speaking. I suspect that's why he got more outside input for B2B and allowed Wachtel to play so much guitar, a winning move when you listen to SOM in particular, what a great guitar part. Best one since...

Absolutely. And I've said it here before: Wachtel would be a natural choice to replace Ronnie on the road. That would take a lot of pressure off of Keith...

IF KEITH RICHARDS NEVER EVER DOES "SHIT" AGAIN, HE SHOULD NEVER EVER BE DISREPECTED; FOR IF IT WERE NOT FOR BOTH MICK AND KEITH EQUALLY, WE WOULD NOT BE HERE DISCUSSING ANY OF THIS. THE YIN/YANG OF THE GLIMMER TWINS IS WHAT MADE THIS ENTIRE RIDE POSSIBLE.

Quite frankly I'm surprised (pleasantly) that Mick has taken the lead on this project so passionately.

Will we get a Tour of some kind? I sure the Hell hope so.

I for one wouldn't want Waddy on stage with the Stones. But I probably wouldn't go either way.

Ronnie on bass for an entire concert might get me interested. His guitar style really fits bass riffs, IMO.

Regardless, I don't think it's going to come to that. For the first time, I think things really and truly are up in the air.

Stones final live project should be a residency to avoid traveling stress on skinny old guys with bad lungs, rotten livers, cancer surviving and cracked skulls.They could set up with Mick Taylor, Wyman (and Wood) plus a few guest stars. Run through everything, get some killer footage and recordings in the can and call it a day. Time is getting short..damn!

He's certainly a very good/great player. But I didn't like his work on Keith's solo LP.
I've listened to a whole lot of Waddy on early Warren Zevon shows (and others), and although I agree
he can play, I don't like what it does to the Stones sound.

Does that make sense? Whenever I hear Waddy, I'm taken back to Zevon's sound/style of music.

I get that sense too. But a Mick and Keith small venue acoustic tour would be FANTASTIC.

Same here and also on B2B, can't get over that SOM guitar part Wink Makes me want to check out Warren Zevon Wink

Switching Ronnie to bass would certainly be interesting versus the current Darryl "the subwoofer" Jones !

Ronnie is a fully fledged Stone, so i dont know if they can sack him. These days, he could sue their asses! But what would be wrong with Blondie getting the flick, Waddy coming in, Ronnie clowing around, and M.T. guesting on 3-4 songs?

It wont happen of course. But, all this Exile stuff does is make you miss Taylor even more. Ronnie might need another Russian chick to get over it all.

So was Brian Jones - and they sacked him, even though he even founded the band.

They're technically ALL 'sackable'.
