    Everyone counted Richards out time and time again. Yeh the jokes are endless about him and that’s all good but from what I see here we are in the 21st century and here we are listening to his views and still finding him relevant enough to do so. Keith, quite simply your a ‘rock and roll God’. Thank you for the amazing songs and the amazing journey. Keep them ‘guessin’...

      The thing about Keith is he's not a rhythm guitarist r a lead guitarist he is just a guitarist. If Keith or may goes the stones are gone. Especially with Keith nobody can play his part even if they practiced 100 years. He plays every song different in his head. Then again he plays them the same. Only a true Keith freak knows what I'm talkin about
