What’s odd is that when people think of drugs and music, they always point to Keef and never Johnny Cash.

He quit while he was ahead.

I recall Charlie saying he got on junk (heroin) long after Keith had been causing the band problems with it (because Charlie was “bored”).

Guessing Ron has fallen off the wagon hard. Hope he pulls it together

The Stones won't go out on tour with a drunken Ron Woods
They've done it before and he was useless
I think the Stones even had a guy playing guitar behind a curtain to pick up the slack

The Stones can go out on tour and leave Ronnie at home
Not that I would pay to see this geriatric lot with Mick Jagger leaping around

Charlie Watts....he was on heroin for a while. Ten years IIRC and then he kicked it

[a fool in paradise]

Ian's feeling left out...

[Night Hides Not]

That's a hard 61.

The only rock star that I’ve seen recently that’s aged reasonably well is Ringo Starr. He’s almost 70.

What about Big Jay McNeely?

(1951)

(2009)

Age 72

[a fool in paradise]

MATH Error - 82

Sure that’s not Rod Stewart?

And what was he thinking, stripes are never flattering ;-)

[a fool in paradise]

Was he going to a Zombie March?

I would too if I had to sleep with that....oh what the heck.... m.o.n.e.y.!!!!

Oh, to be a 61 year old billionaire with no morals.

Or even a 54 year old billionaire with no morals.

Ronnie’s supposed to place some Faces dates with Ian and Kenny next year (they played Royal Albert Hall last month).

[Revolting cat!]

Actually, Bill was almost broke. He left just before the megamillions started to roll in. Well, he’s got his pub.

Money isn’t everything. Especially when band politics (like office politics) make work no fun.

I’m sure Ian and Kenny can use the $$$
BTW Ronnie’s divorced him and only got 5 million Pounds. She expected more but said Ronnie had blown too much of his wad. I had heard his wealth quoted at 70 million USD

it isn’t true love on her part. In fact she looks like she’s ready to puke in that pic.

From what I've read in the tabloids it's her mother who's encouraging the relationship for the financial comfort it now brings to her family. I know Russian girls. I married into that culture and good ones will do anything for their mothers.
