Title: Saw Blondie Chaplin last night... Post by: matt-zeus on August 23, 2006, 02:20:04 AM ...At the Stones gig in Twickenham. Only the second BB i've ever seen (after Brian) and it was good to see him though the sound wasn't great so I couldn't hear his voice too much. He also played a bit of backup guitar (at the same time Mick was on guitar - so there were 4 people playing guitar at the same time! and to be honest I couldn't hear any of it).
Anyway thats it really. Title: Re: Saw Blondie Chaplin last night... Post by: c-man on August 23, 2006, 04:49:16 AM Did they play Dennis' "River Song" over the PA before the concert like they sometimes do?
Judging by your comments, even if they had, you may not have heard it! In the past year I was fortunate enough to see both Blondie (with the Stones) and Ricky (with Bonnie Raitt). I'll be seeing the Stones again on October 1st. This time from the 15th row! Craig Title: Re: Saw Blondie Chaplin last night...

Title: Re: Saw Blondie Chaplin last night... Post by: matt-zeus on August 23, 2006, 08:43:40 AM I didn't hear River Song but I could make out 'Upside down' by Diana Ross and a Franz Ferdinand song.

Well, there was a CD out some years ago, where the Stones compile all their favorite songs and the only song which wasn't something from the early days of blues (like Robert Johnson and all those great guys) was "I just wasn't made for these times". I guess "River song" has something to do with Blondie but who knows... Title: Re: Saw Blondie Chaplin last night...

Blondie did part of the lead-vocal on The River Song ("I Was Born Into The City life...") when it was played live a few times in 1973 Title: Re: Saw Blondie Chaplin last night...

Whoa... for a minute there I thought you meant they did a cover version of "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times". Now THAT would be something to hear... Title: Re: Saw Blondie Chaplin last night...
