The Rolling Stones

Yeah I am talking about smack, junk, horse, china white, chiva, H, tar, black, fix, speed-balling, dope, brown, dog, food, negra, nod, white horse, and stuff of which Dionysus’ dreams are made. The little white angel that sits on your shoulder and rocks you to sleep, returning you to the soft, pillowed encasement of the womb, warm, satiated, arms jelly, thoughts fluttering, creative synapses trickling like sweat down your forehead. I'm not talking about the cluttering in t... MORE

Legendary Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards offered a little advice to struggling singer Amy Winehouse this weekend. "She should get her act together," the former addict said during an interview at the Berlin International Film Festival on Friday. "Apart from that, I have got nothing to say to the bitch." WELL, let's not overload her with compassion and care now Keith!! Didn't this guy snort his dead fathers ashes last year?

Rating 9.2Summary The most necessary unnecessary album of the year. For all the Rolling Stones have accomplished, and that list is as extensive as the items Keith Richards has personally injested, none is more impressive than what Scorsese's Shine A Light makes clear: the Stones are outliving and outperforming their critics and chroniclers. Their peers had the good sense to be canonized: The Beatles went out in ego and flames, Dylan went reclusive - but the Stones, th... MORE

The Rolling Stones have left EMI for a deal with the Universal Music Group, the same label behind their most recent release -- the soundtrack to the Martin Scorsese documentary Shine a Light. While EMI struggles to get into a groove under the new control of private equity firm Terra Firma, it seems the Stones were happy with the way UMG handed the soundtrack's release. It debuted at Number 11 on the US chart and sold 100,000+ albums (those are big numbers these days). ... MORE

His close family and friends say he is seeking help and look forward to his recovery."   Wood's wife Jo, 53, left him after widespread reports of his binges and liaisons with Ekaterina Ivanova, a 19-year-old Russian-born waitres...

More advertising ? Rice Krispies (radio) by the Rolling Stones...

  Here are the Stones extolling the audio qualities of Rice Krispies.  

So I'm sitting in a hammock down by the old mill stream, reading 'On Chesil Beach' by Ian McEwan, and I'm pretty immersed in the troubled, sexually awkward courtship and wedding night of the two main characters, and then I hit this sentence on page 127: "He played her 'clumsy but honorable' cover versions of Chuck Berry songs by the Beatles and Rolling Stones." What? He might as well have written, "He took her over to the 100 Club to see The Clash," because if something... MORE

The Rolling Stones' soundtrack Shine A Light for the Martin Scorsese rockumentary of the same name will be available in two version: a two-disc, 22-track live album and a 16-track soundtrack. Both albums, recorded at New York's Beacon Theatre on October 29 and November 1, 2006, contain Stones classics and not one track from the band's most recent studio album, A Bigger Bang, which the Stones were touring behind at the time. However the expanded double disc album includes... MORE

You know that rule of thumb, the one that goes -- some things are better left unsaid? Well, Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts should have taken notice of the saying when talking to BBC 6 Music about the Martin Scorsese-directed rockumentary Shine A Light, starring his band. The media have been feeding like a pack of hungry wolves on Watts' blunt review, and somewhere out there Marty Scorsese is crying. Watts, it seems, was expecting an Academy Award winning biopic, and ... MORE

Ethan Russell traveled with The Rolling Stones during their legendary 1969 tour that ended with the historic Altamont concert in San Francisco. Many of the photos that Russell snapped along the journey have never been published until now, with the release of a collector's book of glossy photographs titled "Let it Bleed: The Rolling Stones 1969 U.S. Tour." The limited edition book contains hundreds of pictures of The Rolling Stones tour and, according to the SF Weekl... MORE

That climatic scene in 'Bottle Rocket'...when Dignan is making his ill fated getaway. The Stones '2000 Man' comes blaring at ya,...and it is just perfect.    This was THE scene that made me a Wes Anderson fan.

go see shine a light perhaps you're apprehensive because you think their days are done and it might be boring. HAHAHAHAHAH. that they're just a bunch of old guys playing songs they wrote 20 years ago. i'm here to tell you: EL-WRONG-O. the stones simply tear in up in this movie. it's totally a mind-blowing thing to behold my take away: the stones in this movie embody "perseverance" and "drive" - about having a fire inside that burns so hard you refuse to let any precon...
