moy JAGGER & RICHARDS DON'T KNOW THEIR OWN SONGS
Movie & Entertainment News provided by World Entertainment News Network (www.wenn.com)

ROLLING STONES guitarist RONNIE WOOD has to teach MICK JAGGER and KEITH RICHARDS how to play their own songs - because they often forget them. The 60-year-old musician joined the band in 1976 but insists he is more familiar with the hits than his bandmates.

He writes in his new memoir, Ronnie, "Even these days while rehearsing for a tour, Mick or Keith will play something and I'll tell them, 'It doesn't go like that, it goes like this. Come on guys, you wrote the f**king thing," and Keith will shout back, 'Just because I wrote it, that doesn't mean I know it.' So for me, the music was the easiest part of becoming a Rolling Stone."

Saint Sway beyond ironic coming from the guy that spends most of the show waving to fans during songs he cant remember how to play

Not the stuff -- the band.

gotdablouse Good point! Too bad he has such little style and class, I was listening to B2B the other day, where he was UNINVITED, and marvelled at the way Benmont Tench carried "Already Over me".
