Was up late the other night when i came across "Freejack." It was only the last half-hour, but it still was kinda cool. Mick makes it worth watching, though Anthony Hopkins is good in just about anything.
I've been watching Stones movies for the past week or so. I watched the Rewind video the other night, and it just keeps getting better and better. She's So Cold is absolutely fucking hilarious, and I don't even like the song. (My hand just froze! [Ronnie shakes his hands like a dumbas] Oh, and the part when Mick grabs Ron by the throat.) She Was Hot, Too Much Blood, and IORR are all also funny. Angie is just breathtaking.
Gimme Shelter is the best, hands-down. The versions of Under My Thumb and Satisfaction on there beat all others by 2000 light years. "Either those cats cool it man, or we don't play." Yeah, Keith, let's start another riot... Who the Hell is that dork behind Mick during UMT? He's so zonked, he's resorted to mouthing ou the vowels of the alphabet. "AAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEUUUUUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAAAA(and sometimes Y)."
R&R Circus is awesome, but I still think the Stones are dicks for editing out Brian's guitar bits on everything but "No Expectations." The Who RULE!!!!!!!!
After the recent string of posts, I'm reluctant to watch LSTNT. Should I really give it a try?
I want to get Sympathy, but I will have a remote handy for fast-forwarding.
I tried watching Performance once, but I couldn't get past the first 15 minutes because it was so fucked up. When does Mick come in? That way, I can cue up the VCR to just tape him.
I want to see 25X5 again. I want a copy of Cocksucker Blues and Ladies and Gentlemen. And I want their last three tour movis (Max, Voodoo, Babylon). The version I have of Bridges was taped off of PBS, and has several songs cut out. Oh, well. At least Wanna Hold You is in there.
Keith Richards, Brian Jones, and Charlie Watts are gods. Hey, I'm starting to post like Maxy. Guess that's what comes with being a Gas Gas Gas Kinkily Coat Mafia member.
Well, I'm done. GHS is playing softly next to me. Silver bells is a rining', ringin' all around the house. Ah, yeah, ah yeah. And I did not know her name!
Slowly rocking on...
