Has Keith Richards mellowed out?! Legendary Rolling Stones hellraiser says he ‘stopped drinking a year ago’ and stopped the ‘other stuff’ because he ‘wasn’t feeling right’ (and his bandmates couldn’t be happier!)
He’s been abusing sex, drugs and alcohol for more than 50 years and he’s still here. It just doesn’t seem fair.
Richards, who turns 75 on December 18, will embark on the U.S leg of the Stones tour next year with bandmates Mick Jagger, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts.
But this time, he told Rolling Stone magazine, he will perform in front of one million people in 14 cities completely sober.
Bandmate Ronnie Wood said he is ‘a pleasure to work with’ since cutting back.

Some wag suggested that stopping drinking is a requirement to get in line for a liver transplant.
Someone else suggested Keith has a new girlfriend, or wife, whose Christianity may be an influence.
I don’t know, nor care enough to look it up. Just passing along rumors.
I liked the 12X5 album. December’s Children was one of the first albums I had of my very own. I guess the Stones did some stuff after 1965, too? 🙂
