^^I read that Ronnie Wood was hurting financially, because of his leaving his wife for a Russian supermodel. Then when that went bad his wife sued for Big bucks, and the Russian gold digger got her fair share as well. When he sobered up Ronnie tried to reconcile with his ex-wife but I don't think that worked.
It is about the money and adulation and always has been for a long time now. Mick knows because he said it himself in the article I mentioned.
If people want to see them fine, I saw them years ago and it's in my top ten concerts of all time and I am content to leave them right there.
Totally forgot about Ronnie Wood in my defence, your honour
Making money and having 70,000 go ape shit when all you have to do is walk out onstage? **** I'd even consider reading the liner notes on a Van Hagar album to be able to do that for a living
