In the car and WZLX in Boston said that Richards and Wood almost came to blows during the last show. I think he said it was MGM. He said that Jagger had to step in between the two to stop a fight on stage. Any truth to this? |

No.. Actually, there is no truth to that at all.. They were horsing around as usual. Not everything about The Stones revolves around thier supposed conflicts with each other.. |

I don't know about it ever happening on stage, but I've read accounts about the following scuffels:
- Keith swinging at Ronnie
- Charlie belting Mick
- Keith wanting to belt Mick during "One Hit To The Body" video!

I wish Ronnie would throttle Keith.....that'd be funny. He's taken shit from Mick and Keith for so long now just to keep that good paycheck coming. |

All of those are true! Keith actually beat the living crap out of Ronnie on the '81 tour, after Jo ran into his room in tears, saying that Ronnie was drunk and doing lines again.
Charlie whalloped Mick in Amsterdam, I can't remember when. Sometime in the Dirty Work era. Keith got Mick drunk, and at around 12:30 or something in the evening Mick called up to Charlie and yelled "Izzzzat my fuckin' drummer? Git my fuckin' drummer down here right away!" Charlie gets on his best suit, goes downstairs, walks into the room, and hits Mick so hard Keith has to grab him to keep him from flying out the window. He just looks down and says "Don't *ever* call me your fucking drummer again. You're *my* fucking singer!" and walks out.
Keith's comment? It was to the effect of "Mick was wearing my favorite coat, and it was trashed. Blood & food everywhere. I liked that coat."
I hope that's not true about Keith & Ronnie almost whalloping each other. I know they've been a little more distant this tour 'cause Ronnie just can't afford to hang around Keith "Rebel Yell 24/7" Richards all the time anymore. And I know Keith and Ronnie had a little tizzy of some sort playing "Sympathy" somewhere this tour. But otherwise I think they've been gettin' along fine.

Ahhh... Ronnie takes his share of shit stoically, but he'n'Keith when they're on and good buddies are friggin' awesome together. I wouldn't wanna see them fightin'. And this tour Mick's been awfully nice takin' Ronnie around so he doesn't feel left out 'cause he can't hang around with Keith so often anymore.

Aw I don't mean I'd like them to be enemies or anything- I want them to keep making great music and being buds, but even buds "have it out" every so often. I'd just like to see Ron stand up to the Glimmer Twins for once. I wish he'd have punched Mick in the mouth when Mick started licking his face on SNL. That'd been funny. Mick needs to be brought down once in a while. Major props to Charlie for stoically throwin' down on Sir Mickie. |

Well, now that he's sober, I think next studio album you're gonna see a lot of Jagger/Richards/Wood, as Keith + Ronnie get back to workin' together - Mick'll still work on his own and bring in whatever he finds. Hopefully this album'll be nice and stripped down to just the core band plus a bass and a pianist (I won't say Darryl and Chuck specifically - I like Darryl, and provided that they give Chuck a piano rather than a keyboard he's great.). Keith isn't gonna bring in anyone else, I'm pretty sure - he and his Winos buds have had their good times but I don't think they're gonna be doing the same deal they had on Bridges - everyone in a different studio with their own personal entourage of session players.
Give us the weave! Get Charlie to lock Mick, Keith & Ronnie in his kitchen and take the tapes from whoever's still alive after a night and make an album outta that!
I don't think Ronnie's actually hauled off and socked either of the Glimmer Twins without provocation. That one fight with Keith he did give as good as he got, and as neither of them were particularly sober or clean they just ended up sprawled on the floor, laughing as they took half-hearted swings at each other. Then they got up and went to see Mick, splattering blood all over his carpet. When they got into his room and said "Hi guys!", Mick just looked up at them, didn't even notice, and said "How does the middle eight of 'Summer Romance' go?"
(That story and the one about Charlie and Mick are my favorite Stones stories. The one about Keith and Ronnie is from Victor Bockris's book on Keith, the other one has been confirmed by Charlie.)

Sammy Davis said "I wish he'd have punched Mick in the mouth when Mick started licking his face on SNL. That'd been funny. Mick needs to be brought down once in a while."
Hold on there, Sammy. Mick does NOT need to be brought down physically or verbally by any of the other Stones. No one is carrying him and he doesn't try to sabotage his bandmates by giving less than 100%. |

Ronnie got real angry during the Joint show. It looked like he was furious at one of the sound men and was really giving it to him--Keith came over and tried to calm Ronnie down and Ronnie got into a spat with Keith also. You could not hear Ronnie's guitar from many areas. of the Joint.
All the love was back, and even more for the final show at the MGM--It was a love feast among all the band members.
