K e n o  claims to have the oldest too.

I remember being a reg on Gasx3 for years knowing that Rocks Off was here but never knew who came first?

Wasn't there a forum called 'Stones Planet' that was active before this message board? I also understand that Rollingstones.com had one during the Bridges To Babylon Tour, too.

I don't know if here was founded prior to Keno's board or not, but I was a regular there first. In fact, I was still at school when I started posting there! I remember Steel Driving Hammer, Nanker, jb, Sir Stonesalot, Joey, Gazza from way back then! I became active on the Gas Gas Gas Message board around December 2000 - Christ, 10 years ago - and must have started here around late '01 or early 2002.

I think StonesPlanet was the European site run by that balloon Pia (aka Charlotte) (the Danish woman, not our own bit torrent maestro)

Stonesdoug board is so gentle, really such a tease.
You never know quite whats going on, behind those siliky sleeves.

IORR is pretty funny, sometimes they drive me mad.

K E N O's board (just wanna get fucked all night, but Joey and I still had all that jam.

Alex is only 27. I think it was his 19th birthday around the time he flew to New York to join us for his first Stones show, at Giants Stadium in 2002.

LOL. I've seen pics; what a group of lovable delinquents!!!!
Seriously Alex, you were posting at a young age. Good for you!!!

You're still glowing because Luxy made such a fuss over you.... 

I remember way back in 94/95 there was a bulletin board called Undercover.  I think that was it's name. It was a very rough board, with just general set lists etc.  If I recall correctly, it was run out of Philadelphia. One of it's members saw me wearing a Stones tee shirt and wrote down a super long web address for this board.

Thanks for the 'boards' history lesson! I just web-surfed here accidently one day looking for information. I asked the question 'what was the longest RS setlist' and within minutes there were a few answers so I was hooked. Now I try not to skip a day, I might miss something important and LOL reading the posts! I dont like to be censored, which is why ROCKS OFF is my favorite RS board ~ Shidoobee & IORR are too sensitive and polite. I like the 'anything goes' attitude around here! Aside from that ROCKS OFF has the coolest crowd! I've met many of you in real life and it makes me really happy to have Stones-friends in so many different places!  Thats why I love RO board and the Stones too on so many levels. Just the name 'ROCKS OFF' satisfies me since it's such a fvcking great rockin sexy song!
my favorite verse:
I was making love last night
To a dancer friend of mine.
I can't seem to stay in step,
She comes every time she pirouettes over me.
uh-huh yeah MICK! Actually that dancer-friend used to post on MJ.com, it's a true story. She posted about it and I believed her.

I love it here and many thanks all those that keep it LIVE............
It would be interesting to find out how some of the rest of us found it?
I came on it by chance looking for the words to "Rocks Off" For the singer in my Band! I also had just gotten tickets or was looking for tickets to see THE STONES. I had missed out on them 3 times before And had vowed not to ever miss them again.
I read for a while before posting.....you know standing in the shadows.
I kind of felt like the guy who read his roomates HOMETOWN paper. I was not one of you but I kind knew you as far as the internet goes.
I remember be called out by a few, Gazza got me first for referring to this place as a Blog! He was of course the gentlemen he is, and  explained it to me.
"Kilroy this is a forum not a BLOG" I loved it.........I still say it sometimes to clients and friends. When they get on my nerves a little. "This is a forum not a Blog." They look at me oddly, but I never explain, I go on explaining whatever I needed to explain.
My love for that other Band you know The Beatles, Elvis, Jerry Lee and some others  has brought some indignation from some here. Rightly so. You should always have manners in someone else house and or site. Don't go Paris and talk about how great the Germans are!
My first post signature or avatar you know that little picture over your name was Homer Simpson, I believe, it was one you could get from the site. It took me some time to figure out how to do the Photo bucket thin. I have got a lot from this forum.......Friendship, Information, and a place.... to just go.
The trip to Atlantic City I left about 15 mins to early, had I just checked here I would have found out ..oh well you know the rest.
Here I am  below with a bunch of my RO buddies.
One of the thins I aspire to have, is have my photo cut into the Rocks Off family photo. The  photo take off of SGRT Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band collage. That would be neat!
One Last thin I feel I can finally say it now, with only some 1000 post (counting the ones not counted from the old House, I mean site,........Fuck off Gazza .........I love you dude. Did I just say that!
Thanks again you guys Gazza, Voodoo, and all, I feel like I owe you.

I got kicked out too at kkeennoo's board too because I wouldn't say sorry.

I still like kkeennoo and have called him many times on the tele aftermath...

He just doesn't like freedom of speech.

Yeah and I posted at the Gasx3 board around the same time but I was even younger, I think 15 when I started. Alex and I were the junior posting regulars back then!

dudes are olde

Well it seems like you certainly got the better end of that deal huh?

I don't remember well (I hope someone here knew about it) 
but there was a "Mick Jagger Message Board" run by a girl named Martha, It was in  98-99
everyone used to post a Mick pic.
I was young, I was foolish, I was angry, I was vain, I was charming... anyway
Anyone remember this Message Board?

Oh dear, I look a little unbalanced in that photo

That was Martha Packard (aka MarthaMyDear) - who was a regular on here until about five years ago and who occasionally returns for a cameo appearance.

Dont remember her running THAT site, though - the one she ran (a couple of years after that) was called therolling-stones.com

Yeah, Martha was over in London for the Twickenham/Astoria/Wembley Arena week in 2003. Couldnt believe it that night at Sticky Fingers when she brought a gift for EVERYONE. She was on facebook a lot but deactivated her account a few months ago - I'm sure she'll pop up again at some point. She was one of a few people on here, Gasland and Shidoobee who bailed me out with tickets and good company when I went to LA for the shows in 2002 and my initial 'contact' had let me down. That week was a riot.

I lost contact with Chrissie (AzQb) a few years ago. I know she moved home and her and her husband started a hired car business which last time I spoke to her seemed to be doing well. She seems to have changed e-mail address. She was a hoot - and she spoke the same crazy way that she posted!

The hanky panky dancin' time dearest Luxy, here the winners Nanky and Voodoo!

When I think back, it was all pretty bizzare. I mean, we spent the entire afternoon socialising in a parking lot - maybe it's an American thing, but we don't do that here! In reality, I don't suppose there was anwhere else we could've gone. Great day, great evening!

Well, the reason was simply because (1) No bars close to the venue to fit so many people and being real close to the venue to go crawling and (2) of the big amount of people as we join with the Shiddobeelanders

Absolutely, and I thought the Cabbage Patch and Pilot Inn gatherings proved to be very successful!
