Fantastic
night at the Half moon really enjoyed it. A big hi to Mark nice
to see you again!

Hello Rollin' Stoned, Just two questions, if you please. Is Byron
Jones the same Byron Jones who was once with the Counterfeit Stones?
I saw the Counterfeits back in 1999, great gig. I also them again
a few weeks ago, and the disappointment there was no Brian! I
thought it was a tribute to Fraggle Rock for a split second! Just
kidding. Also, will you be playing a special tribute to Brian
around what would have been his 66th birthday? If so I would love
to attend, and would like to know where I can get tix?
Mandy

The
Rollin Stoned
- we
normally only allow one question, but as you are recovering from
the effects of a Counterfeit show, we'll allow you a special two
for one offer. Yes we do have your absentee "Byron Jones"
in our custody but he is not due for release yet. Re the BJ birthday
gig's, it is something we have done a number times in the past
but nothing is planned as I write. That is not to say it won't
happen again this year if we pull our finger out, so keep checking
web-site for any news.

Hi
guys, hope you all had a lovely Christmas. Awesome gig at Darlington
the other week - really enjoyed ourselves - cheers! Wishing you
all a Hippy New Year and looking forward to seeing you soon...the
countdown is on!!! All the best

ANOTHER
fabulous night. My work buddies (including boss) are now great
fans. All said how great you were and there was a lot of excitement
when I informed them you were returning to Forum in June/December
08 so 2 nights out then (though hope more gigs appear striking
distance for us before then - otherwise gutted at the long wait!!)
Needless to say Gabe and I once again had an unforgettable evening
- thanks so much.
Jan
& Gabe - Saturday, December 15 |
I
am horrified to say that in Sheffield last night, Sir, I noticed
you were wearing black underwear with white trousers. I would
not have expected such an elementary mistake from a rock legend
of your calibre, and would have thought you would understand
that white trousers, especially tight ones, elicit the need
for flesh-coloured, or at the very least matching white, underwear.
I do hope that in future you will endeavour to rectify this
mistake. Yours in disgust, p.s. Fatastic show, though.

Another
cracking night seeing you guys at The Studio, Hartlepool, 7 Dec.
You were absolutely superb (as always!!). So glad we are going
to see you again on 14 Dec at Forum, Darlington. Thanks for another
thoroughly enjoyable night.
Gabe
& Jan - Saturday, December 8, 2007 |
Hi
Chaps ! very good evening at Acacia Hall recently even though
Biff Bam Pow went on a little longer than anticipated. The Williams
'posse' enjoyed the night all the same so much so that we will
be seeing you again (nothing new there then) at Half Moon Putney
on Fri 21st for some more intimate Woo Woos ! Any chance you can
include on your set list Wild Horses and Off the Hook and if you
are really feeling generous at this giving time Little Queenie
that would make us 'ol fans Ed and I being 50 in particular feel
very happy (" Keiths going to sing Happy for you ")
Festive cheer to one and all ! Cheers Guys

Hello
to one and all, Another wonderful evening's entertainment from
'The Band. I'm also rather pleased that the audience has at last
started to join in, and let themselves go. Some could actually
sing too!! I need more volume from the rest just to cover my own
singing. It's one thing to know the words, but a singer I ain't!!
The sound management was good and I just loved the snow, very
festive, should have brought my ski's. Bill was a better look-a-like,
than usual, is this a permanent change? and is Nick on the keyboards
another change? Whatever the reasons for the change in line up,
you are still number one on my Christmas Card list, and my brother
has promised to be down at Kyps for your next visit. (or is that
a threat?) Thank you one and all, looking forward to seeing you
again soon. Possibly at the Half Moon in Putney.

Are
there any plans in the future to come close to Peterborough or
within a 20-30 mile radius of Peterborough? Last saw you in Stamford
and was bowled over by your performance, so would love to see
you again.

Howdy

anymore of your gigs local to me. Saw you at Dartford last weekend
and Biggin Hill a few years ago. Thanks for a great night you
really got me goin (stage banger at front Hope you dont mind
we filmed what we could, the dvd of which is currently being
passed around Swanley on our jam nights. So expect our prescence
to have trebled on the next one. My usual scene is Hawkwind,
Space rock, Sabbath, Southern rock and Delta Blues and favourite
gigs so far have been with Hawkwind and Gomez.... and now you

Thank
God I see your back at Crewe next year for the Xmas gig on Dec

missing you !!!!!! We're even having to go up to Sheffield in
December - see you there !!! PS - Can't you get back to the LL
before July 08 ???
Clive

Hi
you Krazy Kat's, Well seeing as the Mohamed, (you) never came
to the Mountain (Me / Ireland) in March of this year, I am forced
to come to your prodical return to the Dartford Delta on Saturday
24th. Any chance of playing Memory Hotel? especially for Fred
Williams and Ed Gook who will both be celebrating their 50th
Birthdays with you youngsters!!! Also any chance of a shout
to the Slane Castle warriors? I know it's only rock 'n' roll..but
I like it. Woo Woo! ps Any news of any Irish gigs?
Friend
of Fred - Thursday, November 22, 2007

Long
time since we last saw you or I dropped you a line. Looking forward
to Saturday as you are on our local manor and we will have an
excellent turn out on the night. Ed (The Mex) and I are celebrating
reaching 50 and thought no better way to start celebrations then
a night out with you boys. Any chance we can hear amongst your
set for the evening Wild Horses, Paint it Black , Off the Hook
and Miss You which would be really appreciated. Ooh and if Mick
wants a hand on the chorus I will be only to willing to join you
all on the stage .That would top a great evening.
Chris - Sunday, November 18, 2007 |

Hey guys when u got any plans to play a gig in Linconshire again....went
to your gig at the Drill Hall at Lincoln a few years back and
then more recently at The Sands, Gainsborough. We thought you
were great at both of these. Recently went to see the Counterfeits
when they played at Lincoln a few months back, but they are not
a patch on you guys. Give it some thought guys about making a
return trip to the land of the cabbage. Best Regards from the
Lincoln Stoned Posse
Colin,
Sarah, Greg, Lisa, Andy and Sharon - Mon, 8 Oct 2007
The
Rollin Stoned - Sorry
you've been cheating on us, but as we've been neglecting you I
guess you're forgiven, you're not to first to be be lured by their
bogus charm. Nothing in the pipeline for Lincolnshire at the moment
I'm afraid, but I'm sure we'll back before too long. Charley enjoys
communing with cabbages, although he can find them a bit challenging
intellectually.

Hi guys, Saw you at Half Moon, Putney last Saturday. Without exaggeration
it was the best night I've had in ages. Thats how live music should
be - stuff stadium gigs, Rollin Stoned at Half Moon wins every
time ! Converted fan see you at the Boom Boom Club in December
, I've spread the word... Once again thanks.
Brian,
Pete, Mark & Stuart - Monday, October 8, 2007 |

Hey fellas, I have assembled to come and watch you at the Half
Moon this Saturday, one of life's pleasures. I'd love it if you
could play the Dillon classic Like a Rolling Stone, that puts
an enormous smile on my face and you carry it off so well. Take
it easy...
Bryn

Hello to One & All, Just a brief word of thanks for the Gig
at Mr.Kyps last Friday. You never cease to amaze me, with your
show. This must have been your best yet, certainly that I have
seen at Mr.Kyps. The whole set was superbe. I particularly enjoyed
Sir Mick cajoling/forcing Mick Waylor to the front of the stage
to show off his skills.
You really are one hell of a Tribute to the Stones. Thank you,
will be seeing you in December, or perhaps sooner, if we can get
to the Half Moon. All the Best. ps.my brother did not help with
the washing-up. But his thoughts on All of you, match mine.
David

Looking
forward to your gig this friday at MrKyps in Poole. My brother
was so impressed with your last visit here that he has decided
to come on down to the Deepest Darkest Dorset Coast, to stay with
us, AGAIN!! and take in your gig. So thanks a bunch you Guys!!
David

High
Guys,You put a brilliant gig on on Friday night At Killerton
House in rain drenched Devon. It would take a lot more than
the heavy rain to kill the enjoyment of your performance. We
thought that you should have headlined the show !! We will look
out for you again in the South West. Thanks again for a brilliant
show.
Stuart
& Lin - Sunday, July 15, 2007
Rollin
Stoned - That truly was a Wimbledon Week of rain got dumped
on you brave souls, still it could have been worse, at least
you did'nt have to join a cmomunal sing along of "Congratulations"
with Sir Cliif.. |

Hi,
Just to say a big thank you for playing Angie for me last night!
I was having one of my 50th birthday celebrations at Killerton
with friends. We all thought you were fantastic and could have
listened to just you all night - even though we were dancing
knee-deep in mud!! Thanks again for helping to make it a special
evening.

Hi,
Came to see your show last night at Honiton Motel, I went for
my birthday with my 2 sisters and we thought you were outstanding
and the Rolling Stones would be extremely proud to have you as
a tribute band. Well Done!!!
Sylvia
- Friday, July 13, 2007 |

Your
Honiton gig was excellent having seen the real thing a few years
back you are just as good and should be so proud of all the
effort you put into a performance. A great bunch of musicians.
My wife thought Mick get her under a cold shower. Keep up the
good work will definitely see you again sometime
David

Alright chaps, Just wanted to let you know how good that was yesterday
at Wellington Country Park! Me and the misses thought it was brillint.
We were having a chat with 'Byron' after the set, hoping to get
a photo with all of you but you'd already got changed!! We'll
catch you next time you're in or around Reading. Thanks again!!
Matt & Lucy - Monday, July 9, 2007 |

Hi there, We had another GREAT night at The Boardwalk last Saturday
(well worth the 2 hour journey!!) LOVED the music. The only complaint
we have is that there are not enough gigs in north-east. Look
forward to seeing you all again in December at Hartlepool.
Gabe
& Jan - Monday, June 25, 2007 |
What
a brilliant night at Sands Gainsborough. Would love to see you
guys at our little pearl of a theatre in Retford. Keep on rocking.

Dear Rollin Stoned... A group of us are attending the Killerton
Rocks gig to celebrate a good friends 50th Birthday and as you
were 'The Band' that we wanted to see perform, what better way
could there be but to see our number one band 'The Rollin Stoned'
Angie will be celebrating her 50th Birthday....I was just wondering
if there was any way we could get you to do a dedication for her
on the evening and will you be singing 'ANGIE' cos if you were
that would be a double whammy? I am really hoping that you can
come up trumps for us on this....I know that your appearance on
stage will just be incredibly exciting for us...and this would
really make Angies night....... Please can you let me know if
this will be possible............. Can't wait to see you on stage.
Katrina
- Thursday, June 21, 2007
Rollin Stoned - So glad
your attending the show. We'll do our best with your request,
it is not always possible, but on the other hand, "Angie:
is pretty much a fixture and fitting in most sets they perform
so it's a fairly safe bet. |

hi, just wondering when we'll be seeing you at Springhead,if at
all,have you lost the directions to hull?
Graham
& Becky - Thursday, June 21, 2007
Rollin Stoned - I'm afraid
The Springhead have pulled The Rollin Stoned gigs as they were
apparently unable to cover their costs. The Truck Theatre, likewise
are not booking the band at the moment so I regret the road to
Hull is paved with no intentions at all at the moment. The best
I can offer is the vague possibility of something happening later
in the year at new club in Grimsby called the Yardbirds although
I'm not sure how convenient that would be for you. |
Hello,
I enjoyed your act at Whitehaven, hope you come again, and the
weather is a little kinder to us all. I was around at St Petersburgh
when I new it was a time for a change....great. thanks
Steve

hi there , loved the gig at whitehaven last night - shame about
the weather ! can't wait to see you all again for a full length
set . I now know why you get the rave reviews - the musicianship
was quality , coupled with plenty of theatre and FUN on stage.
I'll travel to see you again but how about another show in cumbria
sometime soon ?
Pete

Hi! from Saint Louis Missouri in the USA! I have heard so much
about you from my friends and checking out your sites. My friends
Jan and Gabe and Kelly love you as much as I do! Maybe one of
these days in the very near future you will be able to come
to the US and play for us. I know you will be outstanding! Plus
you are all absolutely gorgeous!! Wish you all a great deal
of fantastic success and may your fame spread far and wide!!
Love You All!

Hi guys, Billy and Helen Crawford-Your Scottish fan club-are
making the trip to Crewe on Saturday to see you again. If possible
could you play " Love In Vain " failing that "Midnight
Rambler" will be great. Looking forward to a rocking good

When
will you boys be heading to the US? You need to come to St. Louis.
I'm friends with Jan and Gabe and live in St. Louis. Mark and
I have emailed one another a couple times. You are a great group
of guys. Spose I'll have to come to England to be able to see
you. Who can we contact to get you a gig here? Good On Ya boys.
Kelly - Tuesday, May 15, 2007 |
Thanks
for another wonderful night at The Lancastrian, Gateshead on 27
April. Again we had a truly brilliant evening. The Rollin Stoned
is the BEST tribute band around (even better than the real thing
for us). Your music is FIRST CLASS and we will endeavour to travel
to as many venues as poss. Look forward to seeing you all again
in Sheffield on 23 June.
Jan and Gabe - Monday, May 7, 2007 |
Yo!!
Sorry we haven't been in touch earlier than this....hope you all
had a good Easter. Thanks for a brilliant night at the Forum in
Darlington the other week - you guys always make it a special
night for us! Really appreciate your kindness! You rocked the
place!!! We eventually made it back to the B&B after taking
the taxi driver on a mystery tour...none of us could remember
what the place was called - ooops!!! Anyways, might catch you
guys in Gateshead at the end of this month...those 'golden circle'
tickets are calling us...! Tek care, huge thanks once again.
Mick, Angie & Mitch - Saturday, April 14, 2007 |

Hi
Guys, I met you all last night at The Venue London.Very impressed
with what you have got together.I am a director and actor musician
so I know how much work goes into this. Check out www.oggimusic.com
sometime and I'll come and see you all again when you next play
London.

McGaw - Saturday, April 14,

Once
again, thanks so much for taking the time to come to the bar and
give your autographs, for me and the two USA girls. It was really
appreciated...........
Im still recovering from such a wonderful night and have
managed to get booked for me and long suffering husband (who I
managed to convert to Stones music in the last 2 years!!)
to see you again on 27 April at The Lancastrian Suite in Gateshead.
CANT WAIT!...........
Hope for another dance and fat kiss with you then!
Gabe (the husband) was also very impressed with the band and said
if you closed your eyes you would think it was the real thing.
Jan & Friends - Monday, April 2, 2007 |

Hi guys, I had a truly great time seeing your performance at The
Forum, Darlington (30.3.07). You are all absolutely amazing and
as my mate in the States says, better than the real thing!! I'm
going to forward her email onto you. I was the one that asked
you for autographs for two American girls in Missouri. Thanks
so much for supplying these, the girls are thrilled. I also emailed
them the photos I took last night. Your music is first class and
the only problem was that time went too quickly. You are fantastic
lads and I was totally bowled over with the songs. My husband
and I are applying for tickets for The Lancastrian Suite, Gateshead
on 27 April so look forward to seeing you then. Fondest regards
to your all.
Jan, Ferryhill - Saturday, March 31, 2007 |
Hey
guys! Great to see that your gig at Darlington has SOLD OUT! tomorrow
night. Just wish we had of 'wound our necks in' earlier than this
and bought tickets in advance
.GUTTED! Never mind though,
I'm sure we'll catch up with you guys very soon. Have a great
gig!
Angie, Mitch & Mick - Thursday, March 29 |

We came to the Botley Hill Farmhouse on Saturday night (24th March
2007) and you were all absoloutely fab. We had such a great night
and would love to come again and wave our bras above our heads.
The dancing on the stage was great and apologies for the butt
slap to Mick but I couldn't resist. The Afterlife of Brian was
also great and his banter was hilarious. A brilliant night.
Sharon & gang - Monday, March 26, 2007 |

Hi
Guys, I seen your show last night in Derry and loved it thankyou.
I work in a bar called Sandinos in Derry (www.sandinos.com) next
time you come to Derry you should play here instead you would
pack the place. We have a fantastic venue and sound system (tec.
spec. on the web site)
Kitty
- Saturday, March 17, 2007 |

Just wanted to say thanks for an AMAZING night at Mr Kyps, probably
the best time I've ever had. And thanks for letting us dance (I
use that word in its loosest possible term) onstage, that was
awesome! Really looking foward to your return in July!!
Kirsty - Saturday, March 10, 2007 |

Well, 2007 has got off to a blinder chaps ! We really enjoyed
ourselves recently and a big thank you for a great set list which
included 'Wild Horses' and you even managed to 'Jam' some 'Hey
Negrita' as you promised Keef when I caught you at the bar and
to keep in some gems from 'Exile' made it a great night. Having
'Brown Sugar' at the end was the icing on the cake, I nearly found
meself clambering to get on the stage but some other dude beat
me ! We hope you include ACACIA HALL and /or MJC on your gig list
for later this year - wdyt ? 'Everybody got to go ....' Cheers
guys , hopefully seee you soon
Chris - Tuesday, February 20, 2007 |

Hi Mick, hows Keef, Ive not seen you since he fell outta the coconut
tree! Lookin forward to Friday at the Komedia in Brighton, taking
the gang from work down there, some weren't even born until after
Brian went for his last swim! What about unusual numbers, I mentioned
before anything from Between the Buttons, and no Mothers Little
Helper was not on the original album, Complicated or Amanda Jones
were! Hay another one that springs to mind is "You Gotta Move"
I think from the film and album of the same name "Gimmie Shelter"
Lots of nice slide if Keef or Mick's (Taylor) up for it! Another
one, I know I keep banging on about it, is Memo to Turner, yes
you've told me before, its not a Stones number, but nor is Run
Rudolph Run! Anyway it would look great on stage if you had the
florescent tube, remember it in the film? Make sure its well earthed!
See you Friday
Pedro - Tuesday, February 13, 2007 |

Hi there I've never heard you play, but my friend has seen you
loads of times and reckons you're better than the real thing.
Anyway, here are some suggestions for additions to your very impressive
playlist: Winter & Dancin' with Mr. D from Goat's Head Soup Hand
Of Fate from Black & Blue cheers
Julian Penfold - Monday, February 5, 2007 |

2007 already and we are gearing up for our first RS gig so we
are hoping you boys will continue to impress and play those requests.
Any chance we could hear Micks dulcet tones on 'Wild Horses' (one
of my favourites) and to hear for the first time the totally different
'Hey Negrita'. Now that will be worth looking forward to chaps.I
have rounded up the Williams posse and we are gonna be with you
at The Half Moon on Sat Feb 3rd, fingers crossed my requests will
be welcomed. All the best
Chris Williams - Wednesday, January 24 |

you are brilliant! can`t wait for next gig
mad mike - Sunday, January 21, 2007 |

Hi, I saw you a few years ago at the now sadly closed Torrington
Arms, North Finchley, London. It was brilliant- great instrumental
technique played playfully with high caricature showmanship and
a healthy boozy disrespect for your own musical talent, banging
the noise out of those instruments as if they were kids toys whilst
still confidently producing those driving rhythms we know and
love.- er... anyway- I would like to go to another gig and this
time bring some more mates. I live in Finchley with wife and 2
baby daughters which is lovely, but its not easy to get out -
and mates are in same kind of North London situation.- Please
can you find a North London/ North West London venue for gigs
. The place that was supposed to have taken over from the Torrington
was the Tally Ho Arts depot- but this may lack atmosphere as it
is a seated theatre. Here are some suggestions: Various size venues
in Camden Town, Lauderdale House in Highgate, Lorenzo's Ahir in
Finchley Central (great for me - bar with back room -but may be
too small), Old Bull in Barnet (maybe seated but worth a check)+
the established gig venues in Harrow, Watford, St Albans. I would
imagine some of the Camden venues may have policies on tribute
bands but from what I've seen - you guys create your own different
and in my opinion superior performance- and therefore should not
be hidden in the category of 'another tribute band'.
Martin - Mon, 8 Jan 2007 |

Hello! Just wanted to wish you all a belated 'Happy New Year'
and thank you for yet another truly awesome gig at the Flowerpot
- loved every minute of it! We all had sore throats, bad heeds
and ringing ears the next day!! I see your playing Darlington
in March, so that's our next trip sorted already! See you all
soon, take care. The mad geordie bunch. x x x

venue for gigs . The place that was supposed to have taken over
from the Torrington was the Tally Ho Arts depot- but this may
lack atmosphere as it is a seated theatre. Here are some suggestions:
Various size venues in Camden Town, Lauderdale House in Highgate,
Lorenzo's Ahir in Finchley Central (great for me - bar with
back room -but may be too small), Old Bull in Barnet (maybe
seated but worth a check)+ the established gig venues in Harrow,
Watford, St Albans. I would imagine some of the Camden venues
may have policies on tribute bands but from what I've seen -
you guys create your own different and in my opinion superior
performance- and therefore should not be hidden in the category
of 'another tribute band'.

Stoned - Thank you so much for your message and colourful praise,
shucks we hardly know which way to look. North London has become
somewhat neglected sadly but you've certainly done a lot of
homework, well do our best to chase up a few of the leads that
you've found.look.

Hi,
Thanks for the mail. Re the pics, I'll gladly burn them all onto
a CDR........ Meanwhile, don't know if you're aware of this site
(I'm sure you are) - IORR ? I started a thread on it around mid
December alerting folk to your December 22nd/23rd Xmas shows.
Link below: http://www.iorr.org/talk/read.php?1,600443
As a matter of interest, do you guys ever play "Stop Breaking
Down" ? Happy New Year, all the very best to you, and see
you at the Half Moon in a month or so.

RollinSroned - Thanks for
the link, I did not know about it (although I guess I should have
as I notice the Stones FC Europe site is on our link page)....
There's a whole world out there in cyber space that passes me
by - so they were right, people have been talking about the band
behind their back all along, and to think I put it all down to
drug induced paranoid fantasies. As for 'Stop Breaking down' not
so far... although horribly appropriate... for Keiths Guitars.....
Keiths Amps...... Keith for that Matter.....the Band Van.... in
fact you name it..... could be the band's anthem. |
Thanks
for a great evening (I was the drunk bloke in the Peckham t-shirt)-
I ues to work for two separate newspapers(one national) writing
about music and your gig was the best I've ever been to! I shall
round up my colleagues at an un-named Indian beer company for
your gig at the Half Moon next month - they can't work out what
all the fuss is about! Best wishes

Hi
and a big thank you for such an excellent night last week at Sutton
Football Club. We last saw you September 2002 when you did an
absolutely fantastic show at Newcastle Opera House. Last weeks
gig at Sutton lived up to our expectations, meeting Charlie at
the bar, Mick giving us a mention half way through the night and
absolutely spot on music, well worth our 320 mile drive South.
Thank you all - hope to see you again. HAPPY NEW YEAR
Nicola and

- Many thanks for the message and all your great support - beyond
the call of duty, we should be giving you air miles - although
I fear the Brits have been upstaged by the Germans again, a couple
of girls came over from Stuttgart. |
Hey,
Im a big stones fan and saw you at the limelight in december.
You,ve probably heard this many times, just wanted to say how
much we all enjoyed it. Im hopefully going to book you for when
I get hitched, and im single at the moment, so thats forward
planning for you. Take it easy, thanks a lot

- Thanks for the kind message - and don't worry when it comes
to complements, this lot just can't get enough. You do seem to
have an unusual set of priorities in your life plan - No 1) Go
out and find a band I would like to perform at my Wedding reception,
No 2) go and out find a girl to date (preferably a 'Stones' fan
or deaf) we salute your initiative and wish you luck in your quest,
you old romantic you, rest assure the Band will be awaiting your
call. |
