Why did he climb that tree, anyway?

He said: "I really think the quality's gone down. All they do is try and take the high out of everything.

So true, Keef. The stuffed shirts are always taking away our fun.

I'd say "shut up and play," but he's got a good sense of humor. And he's the godfather of rock and roll, imho.

wish he didn't look so scary...kinda hoping he's getting his act with God right...

"I really think the quality's gone down..."

He probably just has too high a tolerance level for opiates now to ever recapture the euphoria they could give him when he was younger.

Instead of blaming his worn out endorphins on bad drugs, he should be thanking God he's still alive.

This looks like an article from the Onion. Funny as hell.

Rolling Stones star says he has finally given up drugs - because they are too weak to give him a high.

I'm speechless( <----- except for that part )

Libertarians all need to chime in to verify Richards claim as being true or false.

I dont know why they made Mick the lead singer ;)

Actually I like Keiths gutteral rock and roll voice L0L and he is without a doubt the best rythym guitarest on the planet (Todd Parker Mohr gets second place) Make no mistake

I saw a film documentary about blues singer Muddy Waters last night (called "Muddy Waters Can't Be Satisfied"). In it were several excerpts from an interview with Keith Richards. Keith looked goofy and weird but not particularly strung out, and he was perfectly coherent, if banal. The funny part was when he told a story of the Rolling Stones going to the Chess Records studios in Chicago to record. There, Keith said, they entered a hallway wherin a man was up on a stepladder painting the ceiling. Presently the man came down from the ladder all covered in paint and introduced himself, and it was the Stones' idol Muddy Waters! (Keith told the tale with much detail, and dramatic pause, and incredulousness at the outcome. You could tell he had told the story many times before.) The very next scene in the documentary was Marshall Chess (son and nephew of the Chess brothers who founded the company) laughing hard and saying "That did NOT happen!! I know Keith loves to tell that story but no way!" He went on to point out that Muddy loved his fancy clothes which he always wore, had little use for manual labor, and had plenty of money, etc. It was really funny because one could plainly see that the real story about Keith is one of arrested development.
