ROLLING STONES VOODOO LOUNGE TOUR:
The Voodoo Lounge Tour was a worldwide concert tour by the Rolling Stones to promote their1994 album Voodoo Lounge.
"Would you let your daughter marry a Rolling Stone?" The Rolling Stones were positioned as bad boys as opposed to the goody-goody Beatles. Though at the time, The Stones were illustrated as being the anti-Beatles for publicity, the two bands were on very good terms.
Jagger and Richards did a lot of drugs. Brian Jones did enough to kill him in 1969, but Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts stayed mostly clean.
The Stones were named after Muddy Waters' "Rollin' Stone Blues." Blues artists like Waters had a strong influence on The Stones.
Most of their songs were credited to Jagger/Richards. This angered Mick Taylor and Bill Wyman, who did not receive writing credit for their contributions. Ron Wood got occasional credits.
They are the highest earning rock band in history. Their concerts have grossed over $750million.
Jagger was knighted in 2002. Richards thought it was very hypocritical of him to accept the honor, since the Stones have always been critical of the British monarchy and English law.
Jagger (on their music): "It's a noise we make. That's all. You could be kind and call it music."
POKER (1977-) :
In 1977, before the existence of even the concept of 'officially licensed' merchandise,' Poker' came into being as a small range of 'solid lead' punk anti-jewellery for the Sex Pistols. Impressed by these pieces, several band's agents including the Rolling Stones went on to commission Poker, (which was later to become Alchemy), to make 'official' pins and pendants for their tours and record releases. These were made using a much higher grade of metal, latterly, fully compliant English pewter.
BROCKUM (1974-):
Brockum (originally Krimson Corp.) was started in 1974 in England, later moving to New Jersey. In 1984 it was purchased by Toronto-based Concert Productions International (CPI). Brockums roster include British titans like The Rolling Stones, Def Leppard, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, Michael Jackson, Guns N Roses, and Metallica. In 1988 Brockum was sold to Labatt Brewing Company.. The Black Worldwide logo was first seen in 1991 and would be used until 1994.
