The Problem
Jun 11^th, 2013 at 6:57am

I knew it would be as soon as I got the Philly 6/18 tickets.
I have suffered with it all my life.

Like one of those programmable reminders on your cell phone calendar, my brain is wired to send a reminder of a Stones show exactly one week from the show.

I wake up, and my brain says

" Better seen on weed!

Hey no need to go to work this week....the Stones show is almost here. Let's go get drunk

Crack a cold one"

But a week is too far out.
I have too many things to do.
Can't allow my Stones alarm to take full control.

Somehow I need to reprogram that whole reminder for like just one day out from the show.

But the real issue this time out is that the day before the Philly show, I will get the reminder for the 6/24 DC show. So Monday 6/17 I will be under both reminders.

That's when my brain says "go ahead, take some more clothes off, you actually look good for your age Kiss my undercover ass

"

I know you well enough by now to know that from this point forward you must give up all good intentions of working and being responsible. It is out of your hands. The Band has taken over. You are in full blown Stones mode and there is no cure except to . See you on the 22nd!!!!

I'm sure there is a name for it in clinical psychology circles.
Nolte - The Rocks Off patron saint

Stones Assisted Concentration Knockout or SACK for short.

You know, like "I can't work this week, my SACK is acting up"

"Sure I'll be in just as soon as my SACK loosens up some"

"Boss, I'm having a SACK breakout and I need some time off"

"Hey nank, you okay....someone said your SACK was flaring up again"

My SACK gets worse at night.

you made a grown man cry

I did relatively little today.
Noticed that the stage set-up this tour is kind of a hybrid between 1978's studium tongue and the stripped down look of No Security.

Obviously, the aspect ratio of the length vs. width of the structures varies depending on the venue. And the electrical requirements for a stadium show in 1978 are far different than those of 1999. The flow and the dynaflow, and the ballast are all different. Audio anomolies and physical protruberances aside, the general configurations...very similar. Hints of reverb and overdrives..

I should make a drink...

This a very common problem associated with having chronic Stonesitis. This flare up or problem as you call it is quite common, happening occasionally and periodically more often. Fortunately there is no cure but taking in a live Stones gig will calm the symptoms quite dramatically.

As you know, along with this comes "the tingle". If you haven't experienced it at this point, hold on cause it's coming.

That was unusual since the sleeve rarely had anything going, but Let It Bleed had all the notes on the sleeve. That was purple on the flip side.

Did you ever notice that on Get Yer Ya Yas Out, between Midnight Rambler and Sympathy you can hear that girl....or a very feminine guy... say "Keith, Paint it Black" Have you heard that?

And then on the live release Flashpoint, between the songs Ruby Tuesday and You Cain't Always Git What You Want, you can hear the same girl ... or very feminine guy.... they dubbed it in, it's not the same person at a different show.....have you ever noticed that??

And I have been listening all night, tonight, to ah.......albums.
And you know that part in Love You Live, the El Mocambo part, where the guy yells "Hey Mick Jagger - common let the good times roll!"'

Yeah I can hear that everywhere.
Anyone else hear that?
