Soldatti, you're 22? Wow. I always 'pictured' you older. I guess your dedication seems beyond your years if that makes sense without offending.
No offence.
I have many friends, one of them is a Billboard subscriber or member and he always is sending information to me because I like the stats and I'm interesed (when I can) in Stones' numbers around the world.
Another of my friends works in Telam (news agency in Argentina) and my mail is always full of news with Stones' content.
BTW, I work in a photo studio building web-sites and retouching photos for magazines, my big brother is one of the bosses and he gave me the job  |

mid 80's-ish I was heavily into the counter-culture, underground music scene: punk, thrash, industrial...all that noize. I also had an ear for the "classic" shit -- Sun rockabilly, Zepplin, Hendrix, Doors, Bowie, VU, Beatles, Byrds, The Eagles (yes asses, THE EAGLES)...then one day a friend brought over Beggars Banquet, and what I heard fly outta those speakers I can't quite describe, but it caused me severe, irrevocable brain damage, becuz I was never quite the same.
Next thing I knew I was all Beggars B, Hightides & Green Grass, Hot Rocks, and the hits just kept coming, stacking up like empty, discarded beer cans -- GHS, LIB, SG, ER, NOW!, SW, SF, Aftermath, Tattoo U, Ya-Ya's, Exile ect..ect...I'd never heard such a wealth of greatness from one band.
Eventually my interest in other acts dwindled -- I'd sold my soul, for the Stones brand of rock n' roll...
...and I've never looked back

Listening to Brown Sugar whilst holding the zipper cover of my older sister's copy of Sticky Fingers in my hands. I was 11 or 12. |

First fell in love with them by looking at their pictures from a magazine article around 1988 with poster of the Stones - some of their live shots - too hot to handle....and this was even before hearing a note...very visually enticing...always admit that I'd still love them even if I were totally tone deaf
Curiously, the magazine cover story was titled "The End of a Mega-Group?" (around that time 'Talk is cheap' was set for release or something)....could not preserve that mag, though the memory remains.
The first album was "Dirty Work" - which has still remained my #1 thru and thru...that mag also had lyrics for the Dirty Work songs...and I finally found a hell... |

I thought this thread was about "hooking up" at a Stones gig or to an album or something. Anyway I was quite aware of them around 81/82. Cousin had Tattoo You and they were rock radio staples. What really did it though was when my mom took me and my sister to see Lets Spend The Night Together at a movie theatre. 20 years later I took her to see the Stones in a theatre too (Wiltern) |

Fond memory... seems like yesterday, but it was a hot summer day back in 1972. I was listening to the radio with my cousin. I was 9, he was 16 and a total Beatles freak. Brown Sugar came on the radio and I loved it. He said Brown Sugar had been out for a while, and he diidn't really care for it. I said something about it being better than Let It Be. He just laughed at me. On my 10th birthday, he gave me a copy of Sticky Fingers. Nice guy. That's one of the reasons Brown Sugar will always have a certain effect on me. |
