Okay - hold the phone - I have NEVER been let down by the Stones! Never. All I was saying is that it would be PHENOMENAL to see what this band could do if Mick loved the blues like he once did, Ronnie and Keith were sober etc. That's all. Whether anyone like what CSN&Y are doing - they are on the top of THEIR game, THEIR music. Something that everyone here has basically agreed that the Stones have not been for awhile. The same goes for the Allmans - I don't give a shit if their music doesn't do anything for some of the people here personally - to their FANS they are currently running on all cylinders - Tell me you wouldn't like to see the Stones do the same? The die-hards here continually bitch about the inconsistancy of the Stones live - well - that's all I was confirming...They are NOT on the top of THEIR game. Yes they're still better than the alternatives out there - but they have the potential to be in another league - not just better. We'll never see it, but Keith and Ronnie may see it in double vision.
