What you may need to know:

1. Charlie Is My Darling is the ‘lost’ Rolling Stones movie, shot on a two day tour of Ireland in September 1965 and rarely seen since. It’s being exhumed on DVD for the band’s 50th anniversary.

2. The Stones didn’t play Ireland again until Slane in 1982 (supported by J. Geils Band, George Thorogood and The Destroyers and, you guessed it, The Chieftains), then two shows in The Point in 2003 and Slane again in 2007.

3. The other great lost Stones movie, Robert Frank’s Cocksucker Blues, remains officially M.I.A. save the occasional gallery – no, wait, it’s on YouTube.

Release Date: November 2

But…

I know you don’t normally do this but my bike that I love and built back into a usable bike was stolen from Capel St [Dublin] over the weekend. It was left there from sat afternoon until this morning. I shouldn’t have left it there for so long.. I know. I’ve gone to the Guards, but there isn’t much they can do about it. It’s an old red Peugeot racer, about 1980s,  as in the photo (above) but with white drop down handlebars instead of black.

Anyone?
