January 25 - Darryl Jones talks Stones
Darryl plays together with two mates - Jean Paul Bourelly (g, voc) and Will Calhoun (dr) - they call themselves Black Stone Raiders. They are playing some gigs in Germany, like today in Kassel and next Tuesday in Mainz [=> tickets!]. They play grooving JazzFunkRock with a lot of Hendrix influences, so go and see them if possible.
Darryl was interviewed by a german newspaper, the Thüringer Allgemeine, and of cause asked whether he knew anything about a Stones tour. He declined - he knows about all the rumors, but as long as he doesn't get a call, he doesn't think about it too much. Speculation is not getting us anywhere, he said. The Stones are Blues for him, first of all, and it's really great fun to tour with them. What he doesn't like about the Stones? Well, they have a weird accent, he said.
