Rolling Stones Rehearsing in Studio - Gear Watch Alert

57Deluxe

Maybe some of you have seen this clip already?? Stones in a near-recent rehearsal studio mode...

What is interesting is the approach  - I am sure we have all aimlessly made nothing out of nothing too!  But more importantly a sneaky preview into the gear used... some loved classic amps in there - especially Keith's Magnatone M10 Estey... who'd have thought...!

Interesting.

But at 2:53 and 5:54 for a few seconds you can see one of the cameramen and he's had his face digitally blurred out... 

I want to know why.  [/nosey mode]

Probably a Rights Management clause - as he could use the footage to self promote himself by using his connection to the Stones. He probably had to sign a waiver or pay them royalties...

Grunfeld

That seems to sound good and make sense.  Ta!

I should go show that clip to every drummer I've ever played with. I'm not a big Stones fan by any means but you get how he really is the important bit of their sound/ feel.

Maybe he worked at the BBC in the 70s and they were just future proofing the film.
