I'm in Groningen rn, saw the Unzipped exhibit today, was really amazing, so much cool stuff to see! If you haven't been yet and can make it until January, you totally should, it's worth it

We also randomly saw a flyer saying that a Stones cover band called The Happy Stones are gonna play in Groningen tonight, so hopefully they'll also play something from the new album like that other cover band I saw some weeks ago Cheesy

Ha and before that they were in London together as I pointed out before and when I wondered whether they're up to something people just said they sure aren't gonna rehearse for 4 months LOL I called something was up^^

tbh tho with Macca there, could it be some overdubs for the soon to be released Racket CD? (or possibly also DVD later on?) idk...

McCartney has been touring in South America for the last couple of weeks. He wasn't anywhere near Italy

Neither was Keith from what I understand. There were never any sightings of him.

Reply #181 - Dec 12^th, 2023 at 2:07am There's hope for me yet. I'm finally appreciating as many as three (3) of the tracks. The first two singles plus Whole Wide World... Still my least loved Stones album of all time, but thankfully closing in on Satanic Majesties here's a good fan-made vid:

The album cover is a little creepy. I would have chosen a cover more along the lines of that original Hackney ad, that was a cool concept. Could have been witty as fuck. This is exciting...

It may be. And cutlery
And it has been suggested that 'Driving Me Too Ha'' began as' 'Driving Me To Hartlepool', a reference to Ian Stewart taking the band in his van too far up North for their Middleborough gig on the 1st RS National Tour in 1963, causing an early example of weak bladders on the road and MJ to say "I give the band another 2 minutes".

Agreed!!

Not getting tired of this album at all...its been 2 months and still the only CD I play these days...of course it the only CD I own, but that's beside the point.
It's in the Jeeps player and has remained on constant play since.
I recall not even caring about ABB by this point...I listened to it a few times before the tour/shows I attended,
and Im not sure Ive ever listened to is since.

Rev- this entire album is Stones Greatness 2023! Get on board.

While my overall feeling about the album is still "Rolling Stones Lite" or
"Rolling Stones Vanilla", the new vid has caused me to add a fourth
song to my list of HD's Stones-worthy tracks. And until now I could not
possibly imagine ever accepting "mess it up"

Yet here we are, its happened

Good idea really. Coming in February. With your purchase of a Big Mac
