...at LaGuardia on Friday. As we passed I said, "Next year?" and he replied over his shoulder, "I'm hopin'." |

Next year what? That you two would get together? That he would lose ten lbs, that he would finish construction on a house?
I agree with nanker - your new look is swell. |

Thanks for the avatar compliments ... I figured it was time for me to get into the spirit of things around here.
And, for the record, Cohl and I were talking world tour, 2005. At least, that's what I was talking about, and I'm pretty sure Cohl is in tune with Stones telepathy. |

Damn!
That was potentially great news going by the headline..
when I read "ran into Michael Cohl" I thought for a second you meant whilst driving a ten ton truck....!
How do you know though he knew you meant the Stones? Doesnt Cohl promote other acts too? I know that both the Stones and U2 use similar road crew personnel so I guess he does something for them too. And THEY are supposed now to be touring in 2005. |

You didn't use the opportunity to flush out info about a possible new tour...very disappointing effort on your part... |

He wouldn't reveal any details to a stranger at the airport, even if he WAS sure you meant the Stones. |

Gazza, I remember saying something about the Stones, like, "Hey, you're the Stones guy..."
Sorry to not fulfill the 10-ton-truck scenario. I saw him in the lobby of the Barcelona Hotel Arts last summer and noticed he walks around with a limp. So maybe someone tried and just missed.
JB, I hate talking in airports and on airplanes, so I didn't want to break my own rule. |

Is that REALLY a picture of Mel Belli ?
It looks like Marlon Brando ( circa 1991 )

I think he looks a little bit like the actor George Gaynes (Cmdt. Lassard in "Police Academy"). |

Well, that's some good news. I mean, the part about Cohl knowing that you were talking about the Stones, not the limp and its possible meaning!
I remember a friend of mine talked to Cohl last September and used the opportunity to ask him about (what else!) the Stones next tour. Cohl said something about an 18-month delay between Licks and the next. So from the beginning, there were plans for a 2005 tour... |

I saw him at one of the Bowie Wiltern shows a few months ago. But it was very loud and I was rolling tape so I didnt say anything. |
