Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood paid tribute to their late Rolling Stones bandmate Charlie Watts on Sunday, which would’ve been the drummer’s 83rd birthday. Keith posted on X two photos of the two of them together and one of Charlie behind a drum kit, with the caption, “Thinking of Charlie on his birthday! Miss you!” And Woody posted one of him, Charlie and Keith looking at a birthday cake for himself and Charlie. Woody turned 77 on Saturday.

IN OTHER STONES NEWS....
Mick Jagger urged fans to get the vote out this November during The Rolling Stones' show Thursday at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts -- the 100th concert at the Boston-area venue.
During the portion of the show where they perform a song voted on by the fans, he said, “Now we’ve got the vote song for you, which everyone got really involved in, I wanna thank you… So many people voted... And what’s more important than that is, November, there’s a presidential election, so don’t forget to vote in that. Don’t take anything for granted!”
While Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood can't vote in the U.S., it's safe to say that if they could, they wouldn't cast their ballot for Donald Trump, who they objected to when he played their music at campaign rallies.
As for the fan vote song, it was "Emotional Rescue," which they last performed in 2014.
Up next is Orlando, Florida tonight.
