1. Saw them live when I was 19 years old. AMAZING!

Love Keith, he never apologizes for who his is and was. Love that in a person.

2. Keith is my favorite, too.

There was a knock on our dressing room door.
Our manager shouted: "Keith! Ron! The Police are here!"
Oh, man, we panicked, flushed everything down the john.
Then the door opened and it was Stewart Copeland and Sting.

Keith Richards

4. Hee hee, I totally believe this one.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

3. I saw them live at the DC Colisuem when I was 13 - in 1966.

My tcket cost $4.50! Also on the bill: The McCoys, the Trade Winds, and the Standells.

I don't have a favorite Rolling Stone now but picked Brian Jones for my 13 year old self.

5. Bob Dylan

Yeah, I know, he's merely "like" a rolling stone....

6. Papa

Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died all he left us was alone

8. At one point in the movie "Munich"..the blond Israeli guy is sitting in the car

with one of the other Israeli guys, singing:
"Papa was a rolling stone, wherever he laid his hat was his home,
and when he died, all he left us was alone"
He sang this verse over and over again until the other guy in the car finally tells him to please shut up.

9. lol, just last night we pulled up some live Stones videos on the TV

to show our daughter. She said "why would anyone even WANT to move like Jagger?" But we did all agree that no matter what, Adam Levine does not have moves like Jagger.

but then as Youtube often suggests similar videos we got to watch some live Queen and that was cool. She liked that better than the Stones stuff.

But as to the original question, I'll go with Keef.

10. Keith Richards' net worth is more than $370 million

Compare that with what Fats Domino was worth when he died a few years back....$4 million.

Or Jerry Lee Lewis, who's net worth is $16 million.

Or....(I could go on, but I won't).

11. Charlie Watts, greatest rock drummer ever. (nt)

14. I've always loved him n/t

13. Ian Stewart, according to Keith Richards there would not be the Rolling Stones without him. When he

was asked by their management to step aside for the good of the band's early image he did so with out complaint and continued to play piano with them, also became their road manager. He remained an integral member of the Rolling Stones for the rest of his life. The band insisted he be inturred in he Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, listing him in the originnal line up of the band.

Inductees: Mick Jagger (vocals; born July 26, 1943), Brian Jones (guitar; born February 28, 1942, died July 3, 1969), Keith Richards (guitar; born December 18, 1943), Ian Stewart (keyboard; born July 18, 1938, died December 12, 1985), Mick Taylor (guitar; born January 17, 1949), Charlie Watts (drums; born June 2, 1941), Ron Wood (guitar; born June 1, 1947), Bill Wyman (bass; born October 24, 1936)

16. I recently read two books about the band, and what you say is true.

It was band manager Andrew Oldham who didn't want Ian Stewart in the band because, in his opinion, he "did not fit the band's image"

He died way too young.
In Dec. 1985, he had respiratory problems and went to a clinic to have the problem examined, but he suffered a heart attack and died in the waiting room....He was 47

15. Bill Wyman because of this

Maybe nobody else on the planet loves this song, but I do. I loved it in 1967, and I still love it.

"And nobody else's hand will ever do, nobody else will do..."

17. Mick Jagger is cringe-worthy. nt
