Topic: Chuck Leavell predicts Stones world tour next year Return to archive
December 15th, 2004 02:44 PM
GimmeExile From NEW YORK DAILY NEWS:

Stones to keep rolling: That was longtime Rolling Stones keyboardist Chuck Leavell predicting over breakfast the other day that Mick, Keith and the boys will stage a world tour next year. Besides 61-year-old Jagger and Richards, that includes 57-year-old Ron Wood and 63-year-old Charlie Watts. "What are they gonna do - sit home and watch TV?" asked the 52-year-old Leavell, who's just published his memoirs, "Between Rock and A Home Place," about his life as a musician and forest conservationist in Georgia.

gotdablouse If only Chuck could take his own advice (in reverse) and stay home to watch TV!

Soldatti Now Chuck is the tour agent too?

And his *TIGHT* shirts are gross. That is reason enough for him to get booted outta the Stones.

Yeah, the ``TIGHT shirts`` factor is important, but i think he should get booted outta the Stones for his Heavy-Metal face after doing the T-E-R-R-I-B-L-E ``solo`` in Honk Tonk Woman, in Four Flicks, MSG.

THESE are reasons enough.

Lazy Bones Wow. Mentioning that the Stones will tour and his publication in the same breath...

What would they do without him?
December 16th, 2004 08:05 AM
Pierre Well, they play with him since 1982, we have to believe that they dont't want (or they can't ?) play without him...

And when Ronnie dont' play... he does.

FotiniD Welcome aboard Pierre! Love your avatar.
IMO the Stones can and should play without Chuck. It's only a matter of laziness and habit, I suppose.
December 16th, 2004 08:35 AM
UGot2Rollme agree - the Stones should lose Chuckie for their next tour. I think we'd hear alot more guitars without him - it's great that he's buried in the mix of Live Licks.
December 16th, 2004 08:47 AM
Pierre Yes, his sound presence is too important...

That's why I prefer the blues, rock and boogie sound until 1978...



PS : thanks FotiniD

luxury1 well if Chuck says they are touring, then I guess we can take it as gospel--I suppose CHuck is keeping Charlie's cancer in check also.......

I am secretly excited by all the recent words from Mick, Don Was and now Chuckie Cheese (he does resemble that chubby mouse thing, dont he?)

I hope we are all starting a Tour Fund so the RO gatherings can commence. Did someone say a summit in Chicago this tour?

Not really. If anything, if you put a yellow jumpsuit on him and painted his face, he'd look like Ronald McDonald with a beard.

FotiniD I insist.

Chuck = but in a really wicked and twisted parallel universe.

Very good! I wonder if Chuck -- er, I mean -- Papa Smurf ever played the organ.

Pierre I've got holes in my shoes
And I'm way overdue
Down Payment Blues!!!




Bon Scott and Chuck, not really the same rock school lol !
