They "kissed and made up"? What a bunch of whores!

Guess you're pointing to the right direction.

It was a feud that threatened to end a 50-year friendship – and break up the world’s greatest rock band.

But last night Sir Mick Jagger and Keith Richards revealed they have kissed and made up – and are looking forward to getting back together for a Rolling Stones reunion tour.

The fiery rockers finally settled their differences during a heart-to-heart meeting in New York.

The row began after Keith made a series of attacks on Sir Mick, 68, in his tell-all 2010 autobiography, Life.

It included a claim that the superstar singer had a “tiny todger”.

But now the pair, who met at Dartford railway station in Kent as teenagers have agreed that life’s too short to let the rift continue.

Sir Mick said last night: “Looking back at any career you are bound to recall both the highs and the lows.

"In the 1980s, for instance, Keith and I were not communicating very well.

“I got very involved with the business side of the Stones, mainly because I felt no one else was interested.

" But it’s plain now from the book that Keith felt excluded, which is a pity.

“Time, I reckon, to move on.’’
Keith, also 68, added: “Mick’s right. He and I have had conversations over the last year of a kind we have not had for an extremely long time and that has been incredibly important to me.

“As far as the book goes, it was my story and it was very raw, as I meant it to be.

“But I know that some parts of it, and some of the publicity, really offended Mick and I regret that.

“What some of our detractors forget is that although we look like old codgers living an ocean apart we are still at bottom the boys on platform 3 at Dartford station.’’

Mick gently corrected him: “Er... actually, Keith, it was platform 1.’’

In his best-selling autobiography, Keith, accused Mick of being “unbearable” and claimed they had not even shared a dressing room for 20 years.

He also triggered the “Todgergate” row – which led to Sir Elton John and Pete Townshend leaping to Sir Mick’s defence, insisting he had much to be proud of in the trouser department.

The pair’s bury-the-hatchet session now virtually ensures a 50th anniversary tour.

Original bass player Bill Wyman, who quit in 1992, was involved in secret jamming sessions in London last December.

Keith revealed: “On the third day, Mick turned up, which was a real joy – I set it up really as a magnet, you know.”

Sir Mick added: “It went very well. We played a lot of blues and out takes of Some Girls and things like that.”

The duo are even talking about studio sessions, starting as early as next month. “I’ve got plenty in the locker here, but it’s not on tape,” said Keith.

“We’ll just get the boys back together again then and maybe cut a side.”

Both say they will be living in New York “for a while”. Keith added: “We’re planning to get things going... again.”
But they insist the Stones’ “real” Golden Jubilee won’t be until 2013.

Keith explained that drummer Charlie Watts, 70, didn’t join the band until 1963.

He said: “We look upon 2012 as 50 years since the inception, but 50 years since the birth is actually next year.”

The Stones’ last album Shine A Light was released in April 2008. Their last tour, A Bigger Bang was in 2005-2007.

The band have collaborated with the Mirror to produce a photo-book, Rolling Stones: 50.

They are also planning a documentary including previously unseen footage.

Jumping Jack Flashpoints: Mick and Keef's rows
Keith and Sir Mick have been arguing on and off since the 80s.

Their spats mainly revolve around who is in control of the band.

Describing the start of the latest row, which he dubbed “World War Three”, Keith said in 2010: “It was the assumption that he was bigger than the Stones which started to annoy, then enrage me.”

He added: “Sometimes I miss my friend. I wonder, ‘Where did he go’?”

In his book, Keith mocked Mick’s manhood, saying Marianne Faithfull “had no fun with his tiny todger”.

Sir Mick angrily hit back, branding the book “bitchy” and “tedious”.

same thing another take........

Keith Richards has paved the way for a Rolling Stones tour by patching up his differences with Sir Mick Jagger after poking fun at the frontman in his memoir.

The guitarist made a number of unflattering references to Jagger in his tell-all 2010 autobiography Life, likening him to an annoying mynah bird and suggesting he has a small penis.

The bickering rockers have now agreed to end their rift and they are looking forward to working together again.

Jagger tells Rolling Stone magazine, "Looking back at any career you are bound to recall both the highs and the lows.

"In the 1980s for instance Keith and I were not communicating very well. I got very involved with the business side of the Stones, mainly because I felt no one else was interested, but it's plain now from the book that Keith felt excluded, which is a pity. Time I reckon to move on."

Richards adds, "Mick's right. He and I have had conversations over the last year of a kind we have not had for an extremely long time and that has been incredibly important to me. 


"As far as the book goes, it was my story and it was very raw, as I meant it to be, but I know that some parts of it and some of the publicity really offended Mick and I regret that."

Both stars are preparing to head into the studio as early as next month in the hope of reuniting the iconic band and hitting the road again next year.

Richards explains, "I've got plenty in the locker here, but it's not on tape. We'll just get the boys back together again then and maybe cut a side... We're planning to get things going... again."

Well, people are about having a funeral for you at IORR, so I decided to chase you here...  it wasn't so hard, since there was so much so blood on the tracks..

Anyway, you being more a romantic kind of guy tou prefer talk the Stones in terms of marriage, but I find the terms of wars and peace more apt. There is one particular political term to describe the post-80's Glimmer Twins relationship. It is from the cold war era, and used as a formal definition to describe the official relationship of Finland and Soviet Union (which was, to say the least, quite extraordinary in those days, between West and East). Unfortunately I don't know the exact translation to English (if there is one), but is goes approximately like "a peace-like co-existence" (rauhanomainen rinnakkaiselo). That is to say that there was not actual peace, but the parties just refrain of showing open aggressive (real) attitudes in order to keep the business going on, etc. The deal was also politically and economically good for both parties. There were lots of public occasions were the leaders were smiling, hugging each other, sharing drinks (especially vodka). Like Mick and Keith in SHINE A LIGHT the mic for "Faraway Eyes"...

Okay, the political realist in me interptets the recent output of Mick and Keith stating that they now now formally "bury the hatchet", that is, skip the bad publicity caused by LIFE, in order to do something in together in near future (and they did it as minimally as they can). The pawn is now publicly cleaned for The Stones to do something again. So no matter how "genuine" or "fake" their feelings (or their re-discovered brotherhood) are, it doesn't pragmatically speaking matter anything at all. The aim is in Stones activities. Like always. So damn good news in this sense for us, the fans!

Makes sense that this is what the sticking point was all along. Keith had floated phrases like "very careful diplomacy" at the time these conversations apparently were occurring. It stands to reason that Keith was publicly trying to coax Mick into touring, while, privately, Mick was pushing back.

I still think that the health issue is real, though.

Maybe they think it's manageable, which is why they're going to limit travel. A very smart and understandable choice, if so.

how many burrried hatches makes this now?
they could open a hatch store!
