wishful thinking and conjecture, mixed with delusional desires of a super fan, make for a great read and high hopes, reality it… wee get what they give us, and after a while, if you can't see the patterns, mixed with what we know to be fact… go back and look up delusional.. it's a lie you believe… at least try denial, it's an improvement, that's just a lie you tell...

First off, nobody's .."lying".. about anything here bro. There is nothing concrete about whether Keith is 100% releasing a solo album or not.. after all... there have been reports he's been working on this since 2011 .. .. .. Until it's announced or Keith Richards, or someone representing him says he's firmly releasing a studio solo album at set time frame or date ...or at least working on or planning on one (from someone representing him) there is nothing 100% set in stone. I'm not saying he hasn't done some solo recording or screwing around because we all know he has. I am saying I see no strong, concrete work in progress... or any indication this is a 100% sound objective for the year ahead (not even close in my opinion)... Much of this is largely due to the fact he's been supposedly working on this thing for years (...at least 3 that we know of...) I'm certainly not going to hold my breath for anything in that regard from him.
2. Not saying A Stones album is going to occur without a doubt. I'm saying I .."think"... they plan on recording another album in their future. I'm not sure when (though time is most certainly of the essence) ... As far as "patterns" or using a "pattern" in relation to The Stones or a member in The Stones career is every bit as odd. There are no patterns to look at in order to see exactly what is the next step or is to occur next on The Stones career path.. .. For Example: Mick Taylor and Bill Wyman just rejoined The Stones on tour for shows after everyone thought that was only a dream concept as little as three or four years ago. Three years ago many doubted Keith could even go on tour. Ya can't say lets look at the "pattern" to determine what the next step the band, or someone in the band is going to take.. or what step they aren't.. .. that's not something that is reliable at all.
