Question
QUESTION: hello guys me again !!!! sorry !!!! why does keith doesnt wanna tour anymore ???? i remember they almos disbanded when mick jagger didnt want to tou dirty work back in the late 80 s !!!! please tell me guys why doesnt keith dont wanna tour any more ??? to me he is the master in the group appart is charlie and mick of course !!!!!

ANSWER: Hi Gonzalo,

I have not heard this information. In fact, there are many rumors that a Rolling Stones tour will begin next year!
The usual story is that Charlie doesn't want to tour, but then he changes his mind. I have never heard that Keith doesn't want to tour. Keith will probably die on stage with a guitar in his hand!

BUT! I wonder if Keith is very healthy at his age? You must know that in 2006 Keith had an accident when he fell out of a tree. It is my opinion (and many others) that this accident was more serious than the reports. And many people have said that his guitar playing is not so good after this accident.

Yes, Keith is the master and I HOPE for another tour. But I have more hope for Keith's health.

Answer
Hello Gonzalo,

They officially became the "Rollin' Stones" in late 1962. According to James Phelge (roommate at Edith Grove), Brian was on the telephone trying to book a gig and they asked him for the name of the band. Brian looked around the Edith Grove flat and saw a Muddy Waters record called "Rollin' Stone Blues" and gave them the name Rollin' Stones. At this time, the lineup was complete with Mick, Keith, Brian, Bill, Charlie, and Ian Stewert.

Little Blue & the Blue Boys was the name of Mick Jagger's band before the Rolling Stones.

There is a rumor only of a new CD coming next year, as well as a tour. But nothing has been officially announced.
