People always ask me, "Why do you give scarves to Keith?" and "Where do you get the scarves that you give to Keith?". So many people have asked that I decided to create a separate page to explain the idea behind the skull scarves.


In the summer of 1997 I bought a black scarf with white skulls on it at a local "world" store (now out of business) called Macondo. I bought the scarf because I thought it was cool and it reminded me of Keith. I wore that scarf to my first show on the Bridges To Babylon Tour in September of 1997 in Columbus, Ohio. I had no intention of giving it to Keith until a security guard broke my camera for taking pictures of Keith. I was so angry, but determined not to let the broken camera ruin my first show of the 97-98 Tour. Then it dawned on me that since the "Bridge" was not yet built, the Stones would be walking right by me on the catwalk. I was 20th row last seat next to the catwalk. This was the closest I had ever been be to the Stones. Maybe I could give Keith this scarf? Not bloody likely as they say, but worth a try.
