Keith Won't Appear With Sir Mick On US TV

Jagger is to host Saturday Night Live this weekend

Published 15th May 2012

Last week rumours suggested that the Stones would reunite on US TV as Sir Mick Jagger hosts the final Saturday Night Live of its current season.

However, those rumours were unsubstantiated and are now dead after Keith Richards revealed that he won't be appearing on the show.

"I spoke to Mick and he said it's something that he said yes to many months ago, so he's just doing it," Richards told Rolling Stone Magazine. "He's on his own."

Mick won't be lacking in musical backing on the night, though. The Foo Fighters, Arcade Fire and Jeff Beck are all thought to be playing with the Stones frontman.
