I catch myself trying to be like Keef, while playing with my band, a lot... I am pathetic

Steel Wheels?!?! Which songs in particular? That's my 2nd favorite Stones album of all-time and one of the few that I never skip ANYTHING.

"Can't Be Seen" is Keith's best all time lead vocal.

Steel Wheels came out in '89 right?

Well I love Sad Sad Sad, Terrifying, Rock And A Hard Place, I agree that Can't Be Seen is a pretty good track, it just sounds so, well, 1989 but pretty much the rest of the album i skip.

Call me crazy, but I'd have to say Little T & A, You Got The Silver, and Before They Make Me Run were keefs best performances. Take It So Hard from Talk Is Cheap is probably, THE best vocal, in my opninion.

I love this place is empty and I think Infamy live is better than on the album and a stones concert is not a stones concert without a slow keef tune My favorite member is Mick. BTW...I'm not sure if that seattle show was the best...you should have been at Radio City...that was keith's best... He walked up all the way to the mezzanine during sympathy and started leaning on the walls on the stage during dice...he was great at that show...so was Mick!

I HEARD ABOUT RADIO CITY!

It was supposed to have been the best show of the tour. I meant Seattle was the best show I've ever been to, not the best stones, just the best concert I've been to. But, yeah the energy was supposed to have been like never before. And I heard about the walkin', leaning against the walls... Classic Keef As for the slow necessary Keef tune, he played The Worst from Voodoo Lounge, in Seattle.. it was awsome... Infamy is better live, too bad I dont have good quality version. It has become one of my fav Stones songs. All of Keith's songs are keepers to me, I really wish they gave him more space on the albums

Oh yeah, the Worst was great...I love Vooddo Lounge at my garden show this year...they brought out LOVE IS STRONG!!! Mick was great on harmonica but my fav. keef songs are Slipping Away, Little T & A, Happy, Infamy, This Place Is Empty, and the Worst.

Oh coolness! I really want to see them some day. Roland Orzabal is a genius as far as I'm concerned. Tomcats is extraordinary...

I missed them in concert on the Everybody Loves a Happy Ending Tour. I had my ticket but only later found out it was strictly over 18s at the venue. I huffed and puffed but was told I wouldn't get in. So I got a refund since we weren't given that information when we bought the ticket.
Looking back it was sort of a good thing. Since then I've gotten way more obsessed with the music and I know I'll appreciate it more when they come back.
