Maybe the real reason was John didn't have the strength to go through the travel and rehearsal. Covid was a big story in February 2020 too so maybe John was advised by a doctor not to travel. Mick may not have wanted to put that out there out of respect to John's privacy so he used money as the factor.

Could also be the same for Billy Burnette too. I've read here that he's not in good shape. Rick is in fine shape.

I don't know why Stevie wasn't there. She could've done BMW! I think she mentioned wanting to do Rattlesnake Shake in RollingStone back in 2018.

God, don't make me hate Rattlesnake Shake, too.

If your life wasn’t good to you ....

She’d probably have to change a few words in Rattlesnake Shake to make it more optimistic.

I would like to hear Mack’s exact words. I do not need the writer to paraphrase, here. Being “thrifty” is not the same as being greedy. Thrifty indicates that John did not want to spend his own money. Was he being called upon to do so in some way?

If she thought Tusk was vulgar, there's no way she could handle Rattlesnake Shake...

Haha right. She was so repulsed by Come also. I guess she isn’t aware of what happens to conclude a rattlesnake shake.

Please, like she even knows what she's singing about anymore. That passion of being in the moment is long gone for her. She doesn't create, she regurgitates.

Maybe John didn’t wish to join the concert as he saw it as a typical Mick money making scheme.
And didn’t wish to travel half the way round the world just to line Mick’s pockets ..
I am sure John didn’t turn it down because he’s tight.
His health isn’t too good, And he’s as Scottish as Rod Stewart....both born in London..

I agree. I haven't seen the entire tribute concert but from the clips it looks really lame. I'll wait until it's steaming for free.
