I can't help myself - although I still listen to their music occasionally - I find it hard to muster any reverence for either band's music knowing what absolutely pretentious morons the members of each have proven themselves to be over the years. Overlooking that for a moment - I'd have to go with the Stones. Not overlooking that - I'd say the Stones are the least pretentious of the two by far - but the whole lot are equally as moronic as individuals. That said - Mick's definitely the pitcher and Roger the catcher. At least Mick graduated high school and attended the London School of Economics - Roger couldn't even bring himself to graduate high school. Jagger has more acting credits. I can easily imagine (fantasize) Keith (despite his frail appearance) kicking the shit out of Pete - never even bothering to remove the cigarette from his lips. Where Pete was giving it everything he had up there on stage - Keith barely exerted himself in comparison. Also, Keith could handle his heroin a lot better. -- Sam Nicolary > > Ross Bender > http://rossbender.org > > In a message dated 3/15/2004 11:25:48 AM Eastern Standard Time, > [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > The cat hanging psycho is an actor named Eric Thal, who was my > babysitter when I was 5-10 years old.
