Patti Hansen Instagram – Repost from @stonesdata using repost_now_app – IT WAS 60 YEARS AGO TODAY…
At the time the plaque was installed in 2015, Bill Wyman complained that it was inaccurate, saying guitarist Brian Jones created The Rolling Stones and enlisted the other members. Later on in an interview, Keith said he “can’t understand why” he took offence to it as he was not present when the band was formed. Speaking to Esquire magazine, Keith said: “I actually don’t know exactly what it said, but Mick just the other day came up to me and says, ‘do you believe this s***, man? Bill Wyman is complaining about the plaque at Dartford station.” “I said, ‘A plaque? I thought we had a statue.'”
“I think Mick sent a note saying – because Bill comes from a town called Penge – ‘Bill, if a plaque went up in Penge station that said you were the founding member of the Rolling Stones, do you think we’d complain?’
“But Bill – oh, we love him dearly, and he was a hell of a bass player. We didn’t tell him to leave.”
