I'm glad he didn't pull any punches either.  He put those crappy bands in their place.

LONDON, England (AP) -- Little known musician Chris Jagger had been saying for years that his famous brother Mick would one day join him on stage. When it finally happened, the audience numbered about 40.

Grainy footage of the gig late last month at the Bull's Head, a riverside pub in southwest London, was available on YouTube, posted by someone who captured the event on a cell phone.

The Rolling Stones kicked off a European tour in Belgium this week and will be headlining at the Isle of Wight music festival on Sunday.

Mick Jagger, 63, had been visiting his former wife Jerry and their children in nearby Richmond when he slipped into the pub wearing a purple jumper and joined Chris's Atcha! blues band.

In the impromptu performance, Chris, 59, plays guitar, and the brothers use a single microphone to sing "Dead Flowers," a track from the Stones' "Sticky Fingers" album.

Chris told the Daily Mail newspaper that he persuaded his brother during a break in the Atcha! show to take to the stage.

"At first he didn't really want to do it, but I said to him: 'You've got a tour coming up. I think you need the practice'," Chris said.

From Best Buy?

[thunders]

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

I think I'll pick it up over the weekend, I've been looking forward to it for a few weeks now.

[thunders]

it's good..it's like 29.99 i think and you get 4 discs. I had to buy it the day it came out because I went to the concert in Austin and I wanted to see if I made it on the dvd

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

I'm a little disappointed that they included the Rio show, since it was broadcast everywhere and just about everyone has seen it.

But I guess not EVERYONE can put out a DVD where they played in front of a million fans. 

Can't wait to see the duet with Eddie Vedder.

[thunders]

haha yeah..i've only made it through the first disc but I figure i'll get through the others within the next few days..I just wish someone would put it on youtube because I don't know how

[Malcolm]

I plan on picking it up over the weekend

I will definitely pick this up as soon as i can. I like the four flicks one. I wish this one had more then two complete shows like the four flicks one.

[thunders]

well on the first disc..the Austin show...towards the end of "She's So Cold" there's a girl that mouths it along with Mick and that's me..haha. But all the discs are fucking good, definitely worth the 30 dollars

MADRID, Spain (AP) -- Two workers dismantling a Rolling Stones' stage at a stadium in Madrid fell to their deaths from a metal scaffold on Friday, officials said.

Two other Spanish workers were injured in the accident at the Vicente Calderon stadium, one critically. Police said three of the workers fell about 30 feet from the scaffold, and landed on the fourth worker.

The Rolling Stones, currently on the European leg of their A Bigger Bang world tour, performed in the Vicente Calderon soccer stadium in the Spanish capital Thursday night. They are due to play in the soutern town of El Eijido this weekend.

The dead workers were indentified as Benno Goldewijk, 44, of the Netherlands, and Alfredo Pecina Matias, 38, of Spain, said Javier Ayuso, a spokesman for Madrid's emergency rescue service said.

Mick Jagger will release a "Best Of" album in October. Along with the tunes being the best of his solo work it will also have 3 brand new tunes on it.
