Gorda...i am not debating this...you are not a fan...though i can tell you have not listened to his radio show...i have been listening to him since the day before he was fired from NBC...
literally, that was my first day....I am a fan...and I have great respect for him...his battle against censorship, his forthrightness, honesty and his commitment to his family and friends.
This thread started out saying that he would be a great interview w/ Jagger & co...I actually disagree with that, I think Keith would be a greeat interview...Ron Wood has been in the past...but Jagger, not so much...I don't think Jagger knows how to have fun and drop his act and be real...it is always a performance w/ him...always about the product ...ALWAYS... and never about the person...NEVER
Stern would probobly end the interview after 20 minutes because it would go no where...
He really is one of the greatest interviewers...I just wish if he did get Jagger on there, that Stern show announcer, George Takai, would be on there as well...that would be great radio!!!
OH MY!!!
george was great this week... almost got me to want to see Les Miserable... but!!! the Stern show musical idea sounds funny as hell... you're right too, Jagger would probably stay stiff, but if there is a person who might get him to open up, it is howard!!! That is why i wish the attempt be made. I love how Keith is a fan, even though Stern rips him for bashing Jagger, shows keith gets it!!! The real irony is, ho everyone thinks he is racist, homophobic and exploits the disabled. In fact he has done more to show these people are not different, and has made many disabled people famous, given them opportunities at careers, and done more as a public figure to help get equality for gays than almost anyone I can think of... when it comes to race, I'm not even going to defend him. Only an ignorant person would think he is racist, showing how much of prejudice those have to him, contempt prior to investigation. to say he is perfect, or hasn't said stuff I think was out of line would be false, but I do know this. Being on a Stones site, and saying howard may be immoral or whatever is a joke. Jagger alone, has exploited women in ways that anyone who claims Stern is mean to women makes my head spin... people that don't like Stern, wouldn't like being around me. I have the same sense of humor and identified with him, at the age of 13, just like I did with The rolling Stones and punk rock... I thank allah everyday, that all are still huge parts of my life!!! rant over!!! rock on!
