According to the Sydney Morning Herald in an article entitled The New Stones Age, writer Patrick Donovan says Keith Richards will be a bloody pirate after all…

For most shows, Richards has been singing the new song This Place Is Empty as well as his classic, Happy. How does it feel singing that joyous song each night?

“I love it. People don’t usually associate happiness when they think of Keith Richards. But I’m a very happy guy. I’ve had my f—ups – but who hasn’t?”

Once Richards finishes this tour he will take up a new hobby – acting. He’s playing the father of Johnny Depp’s Captain Sparrow character in Pirates of the Caribbean 2 – a role he was born for.

“Johnny Depp came over the other day with 3000 pirate costumes, which we tried on all day. I wanted to keep some tall boots.”

Johnny Depp explains his special relationship with Tim Burton

The Guardian – Many a moon has passed since the days of my brief brush with TV stardom, or whatever one might dare call it. I mostly think of them as the do-or-die years: picture, if you will, the confused young man hurtling dangerously towards the flash-in-the-pan at sound-breaking speed. Or, on a more positive note, forced education, with decent dividends in the short term. Either way, it was a scary time when so-called TV actors weren’t eagerly received into the fickle fold of film folk. Fortunately, I was more than determined – even desperate – to break away from my ascent/descent. The chances were nearly impossible, until the likes of John Waters and Tim Burton had enough courage and vision to give me a chance to attempt to build my own foundation on my own terms. Anyway, no time to digress… this has all been said before.
