I saw the Stones once at the old Vet in Philly in 1989 on the Steel Wheels tour. Personally I don't know why anyone would go see them in a massive stadium to play the same repetitive hits.
I do like the fact that they are focusing some of their show on the Sticky Fingers album which IMHO is second only to Let It Bleed in terms of thier best album.

I'd rather have a beer with Mick at Basil's in Mustique.

I'd have to choose a night out with Keith to be honest. Better stories, I'd guess.

You may never be sane nor seen again !
Remember that SNL Point Counterpoint where Mike Myers was Jagger and Mick was Keith ?
That was a classic. When Keith (Jagger) starts talking gibberish, Mick (Myers) says he didn't understand him because he must have been speaking Esperanto or something. Definitely cracked me up.
