I saw the Stones in concert over the weekend - amazing show - and only just realised they're on Instagram.

So I started following them and spotted this shot of Keith, aged 29 in 1972 and bloody hell! He was a bit of all right wasn't he? Who'd have guessed??

Was it at hyde
park ? I’m there this weekend . So excited

IcedPurple · 28/06/2022 20:10

Yes he was fine back in the day.

The miracle is that he is still alive.

Looks like Ian Brown.

Yes it was and they were ridiculously good. I saw them a few years ago but they were even better last week. Mick has the stamina of a man a quarter of his age! Mind you there was something about him back in the day too, and to be honest there still seems to be!

Yeah he was gorgeous in his youth. Way sexier than Mick ever was. As a PP poster said he's bearing up alright for someone who spent two decades addicted to heroin and still smokes and drinks heavily.

All I see is a skinny gaunt rocker not my cup of tea.

BeckyWithTheAverageHair · 28/06/2022 20:20

Now see I've always been partial to skinny rockers so that's ok with me! And clearly hundreds of other women over the years 😆

Keith Richards, like cockroaches, could probably survive a nuclear explosion.

BeckyWithTheAverageHair · 28/06/2022 20:21

Oh Keith will outlive us all, I'm convinced of it!

They haven't always been gnarly old men!! They were quite acceptable when they were young 😅

Allegedly Mick Jagger got to Glasto a couple of days early and went clubbing. I'm in my 30s and k can't stay up past 9pm

He elegantly wasted!!

Gorgeous…

Came on to say this.

He will always be a cool cat and the human riff ❤️ Love him ❤️

TwoMonthsOff · 28/06/2022 20:33

@Squills
that was the pic I meant to upload ❤️

CredibilityProblem · 28/06/2022 20:33

I love the Stones (except Bill, obviously) but in terms of eye candy they're hardly A-ha, even when they were in their twenties.

Elderflower14 · 28/06/2022 20:33

My late Uncle was in the legal system and was involved in the 1960s case when Jagger and Richards were prosecuted for urinating in a public place!

Looks like Ian Brown.

Ian looks like Cliff Richard these days …..

IcedPurple · 28/06/2022 20:35

He had terrible teeth however. Mind you they all did in those days.

He has a blinding white set of Hollywood gnashers now.

Lots of live '60s Stones on YT :) e.g.

Early Stones songs are best Stones songs 😆

SpongeBobJudgeyPants · 28/06/2022 20:35

Have a look at pics of Ozzie Osbourne in his younger days. Now, that's a treat.

BeckyWithTheAverageHair · 28/06/2022 20:36

@IcedPurple Have to say I noticed the teeth on Saturday - I could see them gleaming from where I stood!
