my moment with Mick:

Don't know how to embed videos here, so I'll have to just post links to youtube. I apologize some of these are a little shaky (which I always hate and try not to do) but my excuse is there were a lot of people pushing past behind us and they would hit my arm or my purse and the camera jostled. Most are about a minute; some shorter. I had a lot of clips and just wanted to link a few examples.


Mick's arrival and him adjusting the speakers:

This is Mick doing his "Reverend Mick" thing. It's a bit hard to hear:

Mick saying the sound at the Tacoma Dome seems better:

Some lady had a photo and asked Mick to bless it or something:

At one point they stopped playing FM on the stereo system and Mick noticed and said, "Which of our albums is this?" and joked a bit more:

A couple longer clips:

This girl for some reason didn't want to take a photo with Mick and he was trying to cajole her:

And finally this is Mick as he was leaving talking about the band's break before Europe and how it's shrinking (Oh and this is where you can totally see his bony bum quite close as well )

Oh, Bombaysaffires I saw the video of Mick walking in. You are right. He is SO thin.

Lovely picture. Ha. You probably wore that yellow sweater around your neck to coordinate with the yellow scarf he sometimes wears .

check the video of him leaving…. you can really see how thin he is… his pants just droop.

as for the sweater, i wish i was that clever. I just have to dress in layers these days……

Thank you for taking the time to share all of this! Love all of the details.

I remember someone told me, around the time of the last London shows, that Micks g/f runs yoga retreats. He is so slim--

Your clothing observation was of interest as Mick always seems well pressed and turned out. (I often wonder how many stage outfits they each have as they seem to have impressive laundry turnaround times).

His clothes may honestly have just been a bit rumpled from the packing and all. It surprised me too. He seemed reallllly tired when he got there, so maybe a rushed morning (he definitely picked up steam as time went on)

thanks for sharing and a detailed write-up, pics and vids bombaysaffires!

too bad you couldn't get your album questions in. takes some watching of the process and how it works with people before you and mental prep to be ready to jump in and get whatever question you have in really fast, in a sec you have! makes it even more impressive what all Hellomonster managed to get from Mick in a similar situation this spring!!
