Mick Jagger admits to voice coaching
Thursday Aug 10 08:06 AEST
For 35 years Rolling Stone frontman Mick Jagger has famously strutted his stuff and belted out the hits without ever once having a singing lesson, until now.

"Better late than never," the 63-year-old rock star revealed on Virgin Radio ahead of the band's London gigs on August 20 and 22, part of their "A Bigger Bang" world tour.

"I did a bit of voice coaching a couple of years ago, after 35 years with no voice coaching," he said.

"A bit of voice coaching and warm-ups ... really helps. I always tell these younger singers: 'I never used to do it either but you should'."

"I mean, you sing a lot. Every night you are singing for hours and hours and your voice gets tired, like anything, like running every night. That's why you have to warm up properly. I just learnt that so that's probably helped me."

In the same interview, guitarist Ronnie Wood admitted that he has yet to see Kasabian despite the fact the young, hard-edged English band is supporting the Stones on their ongoing tour.

"If I get time I may check them out," Wood said.

I wonder if Ronnie will be asking them for the money for their tickets if he gets a chance to see them?

Think he is planning the future, in other words, start to record American songs albums, as those fuck Rod fuck Stewart. Fuck!
Wondering now if one day I'll still hate Mick!
