Olé Olé Olé!

An electrifying movie about the Rolling Stones recent South American tour has awesome concert footage, and some reflective thoughts from all the band members after 55+ years of working towards excellence and mastery:

“At the start of a tour, it’s like being on a tightrope, that once you’ve set foot on it, that rope widens and becomes a bridge that you can run across.”

~ Ronnie Wood.


“I felt I’d been given a very complicated puzzle to solve. And that I could just figure a little bit more out every time, then there was another big of the puzzle solved. I’m still doing it, it still mystifies me, the damn thing.”

~ Keith Richards, talking about his relationship with guitars.

“I’m just doing the best I can.”

~ Charlie Watts.

“You’ve got to be ready in life for unpredictable things to happen.”

~ Mick Jagger.

“The rain stick is not infallible.”

~ Keith Richards.

“I think one of the great gifts for a long life is that you’re always learning and always discovering.”

~ Ronnie Wood.
