Oh Mick's a Leo I never knew that. Not that I believe in that stuff but some people take it very seriously. Happy birthday to your son SR, how old is he now? You buy him anything cool?

When I watched Fear Factor many years ago I thought Rogan was just a run of the mill pretty dumb car guy so when I a couple of years ago stumbled upon his podcast where he's discussing everything from politics to science and health and philosophy I was if not in shock then half way there.

Yeah Joe Rogan has had a very successful career. Started out doing stand-up. Then he was on News Radio with the late great Phil Hartman. Fear Factor after that. He's mostly known to me for being color commentator of the UFC for the past fifteen years. Now he has a whole new audience who know him from his podcast.

It's funny, sometimes Joe Rogan posts on twitter what he's eating followed by something like #healthyasfuck. It's always a huge pile of eggs.

Maybe he thinks eggs and shitty photos of them are funny. If he's serious, then he's even dumber than I thought. :lol:

Hope Mick is okay.

I'm glad I decided not to spend $200 for a general admission, standing tickets at some field 90 minutes out of Toronto.

The Rolling Stones postpone North American tour due to Mick Jagger medical condition

The Rolling Stones have been forced to postpone their entire North American tour as Mick Jagger needs medical treatment for an unspecified condition.

The rock legends issued a statement at 1pm today (30th March) confirming that they won’t be going ahead with the US and Canada leg of the No Filter Tour on doctor’s orders.

They wrote: “Unfortunately today the Rolling Stones have had to announce the postponement of their upcoming US / Canada tour dates - we apologise for any inconvenience this causes those who have tickets to shows but wish to reassure fans to hold onto these existing tickets, as they will be valid for the rescheduled dates, which will be announced shortly.

“Mick has been advised by doctors that he cannot go on tour at this time, as he needs medical treatment. The doctors have advised Mick that he is expected to make a complete recovery so that he can get back on stage as soon as possible.”

Unfortunately, as these legacy bands get past retirement age, it becomes a big role of the dice to commit to seeing them tour. It's troubling that it's Mick who's the issue this time around, he's incredibly fit for his age and they're not saying what his ailment is.

Whatever it is, it can't be too serious since the tour isn't cancelled. Mick is known for a very strict pre-tour fitness regimen.
It's amazing that those guys are still doing live shows. Charlie will be 78 in June, Mick&Keith turning 76 this year.

Who would have ever thought that it would be Keith Richards wishing Mick Jagger to get well soon

Rae Dawn Chong says she had sex with Mick Jagger at age 15
"He did nothing wrong. He didn't make me do anything I didn't want to do"



Actress Rae Dawn Chong has revealed that she had sexual relations with Mick Jagger in 1977, when she was 15 years old and he was 33. Chong divulged her relationship with The Rolling Stones frontman in a pair of interviews published on Sunday.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter discussing her career, Chong mentioned that her appearance in Mick Jagger’s video for “Just Another Night” led to her breakout role in 1985’s Commando. When asked how she knew Jagger, Chong “accidentally blurted out that I’d had sex with him when I was 15. It just slipped out.”

Chong later sought to clarify her comments in an interview with The Daily Mail. The actress maintained that their relationship was consensual and that Jagger was unaware of her age at the time.

“He never asked me how old I was and I never told him. It never came up. I remember thinking he was really cute. He had tousled hair. I thought, ‘Oh man, he is beautiful,'” she told The Daily Mail.

“He did nothing wrong. He didn’t make me do anything I didn’t want to do,” Chong added. “It was the 1970s, a different era. I wasn’t a victim. I don’t want him to get into trouble about this. It wasn’t traumatising. I knew what I was doing. I wasn’t an innocent schoolgirl. I always acted a lot older than I was. I was a grown-up at 15.”

Chong said she is only speaking about their relationship now because of her accidental slip-up in The Hollywood Reporter interview. “I feel incredibly bad about it. It’s me and my big mouth. My family and friends knew about it but it’s not something I have ever dined out on.’

“He’s probably going to lose his shit because I was a minor,” Chong said of Jagger’s potential reaction to her revelation. “He’s going to be so mad at me.”

Chong said she and Jagger had relations on two separate occasions, first after she was invited to a Rolling Stones recording session, and a second time after attending a Fleetwood Mac concert with Jagger. “I will tell you that it didn’t traumatize me, it wasn’t a #MeToo moment, it was something that empowered me, too,’ she commented.

“I could have said no, I wasn’t forced. I thought he was adorable and I was just new at the whole thing [sex] and he grabbed me and said ‘you’re it’. I wanted to be it.”

Following their brief fling in 1977, Chang said she later ran in Jagger at a party in 1983 where she asked if she could be in his next video. He obliged, leading to her appearance in the video “Just Another Night”.

It's a perfect example of one of those tracks you'd hear on a low-budget show on the Discovery Channel or something when they transition from one scene to another, where it's clearly written as a sound-a-like of something but they don't want to pay the fees to get the real thing.

Looks like this will be the first run of Fall shows that Charlie Watts won’t be drumming. Apparent recovering from some surgery.

I read that as well. Apparently he hasn't missed a show since 1963! And, he said he expects to be back on the road next year for the Stones' 60th anniversary!! :yikes:

Steve Jordan is a fine replacement; he and Keith Richards get on well from what I've read.

In the 90s I saw Charlie Watts solo in the mid 90s "Charlie Watts Quintet". Such a good show, he was really in his element, smiling the entire concert.

I pre-ordered some stamps from the Royal Mail special issue...with shipping just over £100 worth. Since I haven't been spending any money on anything, I figured, 'Why not? " :lol:

I'm not a serious stamp collector but I get ones for musicians, I have some Elvis stamps, Hendrix, Beatles, Buffy St Marie, Leonard Cohen, and some others.

Happy 79th, Keith! Crazy that he's still alive and still playing! :bday:

This is a snip from a music site on FB. I literally laughed out loud.
Many happy returns to Keith Richards! What's your favourite Keef story?
And what's your best memory of seeing him play live?
Our favourite yarn is probably the one about the longest time he ever went without sleep:
"Nine days without a wink. I fell asleep standing up eventually... I was just putting another cassette back on the shelf, and I was feeling great, and I turned around and fell asleep. I fell against the edge of a speaker. Woke up in a pool of blood, wondering 'Is that claret?'"

I like it also. I’ve probably listened to it 5 times in its entirety. It’s good for new music coming out now. Nowhere near the classics though. Just a different time now days. I’m interested to hear what Andrew Watt does with Pearl Jam. Supposed to be some good drumming on the new album.
