Rolling Stones tell young bands not to take drugs (NME)
MS: Sir Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were at the premiere in Berlin of Martin Scorcese’s documentary on their band, called 'Shine A Light', when they made the warning. Jagger said: “When we were experimenting with drugs, little was known about the effects. In our time, there were no rehab centres. Anyway, I did not know about them.”
The singer explained his feelings about Amy Winehouse, who guested with the legends onstage at the Isle Of Wight festival last year.
He said: “I'm worried she might die if she goes down the road that she has taken.”
Ricky Wilson: 'Everyone knows 'Ruby' is the best single' (NME)
MS: The singer told BBC 6Music: “Everyone knows 'Ruby' is the best single, if you are gonna whittle them down to five, you'd think 'Ruby' would be in there wouldn't you?”
The five tracks that were chosen are by Hoosiers, Mika, Take That, Leona Lewis and Mark Ronson.
The frontman explained: “They've all got their merits, but I am just a bit annoyed.”
The itty bitty video (Boston.com)
MS: It's an era of shrinking budgets and exploding technology, a time when once-dominant MTV has morphed into reality-show central and the Internet has turned the entire planet into content providers. Size matters when cellphones are viewing screens and labels are staring down bankruptcy and a grass-roots, interactive culture is burgeoning in the music marketplace.
Small, for so many reasons, is the new big.
