The Rolling Stones' most "Spinal Tap" moment

lol

I found this quote online, but I'm not sure what year it's from. Anyway, I thought this was hilarious.

Ron Wood on the Rolling Stones' most "Spinal Tap" moment:

"We were doing drugs in the dressing room [at a concert in the early '80s]. Suddenly the tour manager stuck his head around the door and said, 'The police are here!' We all panicked and threw our drugs in the toilet. Then Sting, Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland walked in." (from Guitar World magazine)

falloff clapping

I accidentally forgot to get Stones tickets and now I'm sad sad


But that story is hilarious. Reminds me a little bit of "Footloose".

Ren: Oh no! What about the Police?
Willard: What about 'em?
Ren: You ever heard them?
Willard: No, but I seen them.
Ren: Where, in concert?
Willard: No, behind you.

"Cocaine is a helluva drug."

The Un-Tap like ending to the story is that Ronnie and the boys were probably able to replenish their lost resources in a matter of minutes. disbelief

Once again it proves, as Samuel Clemens/Mark Twain said, "Truth is stranger than fiction...".

Nothing funny about not seeing the stones... sad

But I was only going to be trying for the nosebleeds anyway because those tickets were expensive.

Lucky for me I've seen them before.

There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently

He was on TV at the weekend doing a live-in-the-studio version of When The Levee Breaks (on Later With Jools Holland (BBC2), if you get that where you are)

He sounds like he's in good voice at the moment, despite looking a bit old these days.
