The Rolling effing Stones

[singlemalt]

so i'm going to see the stones tomorrow night at the united center in chicago. because it's not always about me, i decided to share my good fortune with ten questions for you. . .

1. the last time i saw the stones, i sat in the 6th row (i kind of have a ticket connection -- classified stuff so i can't say much more). will my tickets be as good?

2. will keith feel compelled to play "happy" again?

3. as you are watching a rerun of "the biggest loser" tomorrow night, will you say to yourself, "i wonder how fantastic the stones are right now?" or will you simply dig your hand back into your bag of frito scoops and wait for the commercial to be over to see how much weight fatty lost this week?

4. what could you be doing that could possibly be as cool?

5. will you be kicking yourself if the stones never tour again and you never saw them live?

6. on a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being very jealous and 10 being stroke-out-on-the-floor-right-now jealous, how jealous are you that i will be hanging with the glimmer twins and you won't be?

7. will the stones end up being known as the mozart of the 20th century, or only the beethoven of the 20th century?

8. percentage-wise, how much of my hearing will i have lost as a result of the phenominal show?

9. on a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being terribly bad and 10 being i-want-to-slash-my-own-wrists-for-a-good-bloodletting-kind-of-bad, how badly do you want to go with me?

10. admit it -- i'm cooler than you.

okay, well number 10 wasn't really a question, so much as a statement of fact, but i think you get the idea.

see you after the show, losers.

1. the last time i saw the stones, i sat in the 6th row (i kind of have a ticket connection -- classified stuff so i can't say much more). will my tickets be as good?

another good reason to hate lawyers.

2. will keith feel compelled to play "happy" again?

keith always plays something. i think he'll play "little t&a"

3. as you are watching a rerun of "the biggest loser" tomorrow night, will you say to yourself, "i wonder how fantastic the stones are right now?" or will you simply dig your hand back into your bag of frito scoops and wait for the commercial to be over to see how much weight fatty lost this week?

i will be watching "house" to see if they play another stones song, further demonstrating how far the stones have wandered.

4. what could you be doing that could possibly be as cool?

working on my book.

5. will you be kicking yourself if the stones never tour again and you never saw them live?

seen em twice.

6. on a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being very jealous and 10 being stroke-out-on-the-floor-right-now jealous, how jealous are you that i will be hanging with the glimmer twins and you won't be?

10.

7. will the stones end up being known as the mozart of the 20th century, or only the beethoven of the 20th century?

in 500 years, mozart will be known as the mick of the 18th century, and beethoven will be known as the keith of whatever century he was in.

8. percentage-wise, how much of my hearing will i have lost as a result of the phenominal show?

just enough.

9. on a scale of 1 to 10 with 1 being terribly bad and 10 being i-want-to-slash-my-own-wrists-for-a-good-bloodletting-kind-of-bad, how badly do you want to go with me?

10.

10. admit it -- i'm cooler than you.

only keith is cool. everyone else, including you, is not cool.[/b]

I miss the multi-instrumental talents of Brian Jones. Too bad he so frequently got so stoned that he couldn't contribute properly.

Without his piano & recorder on "Ruby Tuesday" and mellotron on "She's a Rainbow" and sitar on "Paint It Black" and other such moments, I wouldn't give two tugs of a dead dog's cock about the Stones.
Well, I'd still groove to "Shattered" every now and then.

brian jones indeed.

after his death, the stones have gotten by on a good deal of attitude. but who knows what they would have become if he had hung around. they certainly would have no question surpassed the beatles as an influential band.

Now that we're on the topic of Brian Jones, what do you think about that murder theory? The guy (what the hell was his name?) supposedly confessed on his deathbed, but the reliability of witnesses is suspect

have a good time!

They will came here too. I like them!. I also like U2 and The Who but I decided not to go to their concerts and keep listening to them in pirate versions at home.
