RIP Charlie Watts

Post by Pepe »

80 years - not bad for such a crazy life. But a bit sad anyway. Thanks for all the great grooves!

One anecdote relates that in the mid-1980s, an intoxicated Jagger phoned Watts's hotel room in the middle of the night, asking, "Where's my drummer?" Watts reportedly got up, shaved, dressed in a suit, put on a tie and freshly shined shoes, descended the stairs, and punched Jagger in the face, saying: "Never call me your drummer again."
rip charlie you also punched mick jagger and that makes you even cooler imo

Edit: a good read about this story: https://www.vulture.com/article/book-ex ... 1629995902

The Bill Wyman documentary (The Quiet One, I think that’s the name) makes him seem likable.
