It's like the show has a warm-up guy or a studio man that tells the audience before the show starts, to react by clapping or laugh at certain points. Like when Jimmy approves or tells something that is witty/funny or important.

[@EvelynRobinson22]

that's how it works on TV...I have been to a few different shows' tapings and they're all the same (no mater what the show is). Before the cameras start rolling, someone will come and tell the audience to enjoy themselves and makes lots of noise/laugh/clap etc. when prompted (normally there will be someone off camera gesturing for these things). They do it to 'fill' the silence and keep the show moving...too much silence and the viewers at home may get bored or become uninterested in what they're watching. It's a natural human response to mirror what we see or hear. Not always, but many people laugh when they hear someone else laughing...even if they don't necessarily find it that funny.

[@NAHAJI133]

Keith was born when the Germans were bombing London. He grew up post war Dartford. In his book LIFE he speaks of the horrible treatment of kids back then when going to the dentist. National Service Dentist. His dentist was an x-army bloke. He said there was no mercy. The red rubber apron, like something out of an Edgar Allen Poe horror. They had rickety machines in 49 , 50, belt drive drills and electric chair straps to hold you down. They got more money extracting a tooth than a filling. . The children were given no sedation. He had such a fear following his experiences with going to the dentist. Poor little chap. The fear he developed lasted until the mid- 70's. He said that when he was young they ruined his teeth badly. I am pretty sure that he had dentures made for him. What a nice smile he has now. I know if it were me I too would have been terrified. Keith , Charlie and Mick among other famous musicians grew up during a really rough period in Britain. Not to forget all the people that inhabited the land. Let no one jump to judgement.

After sound check the crew drew straws to see who would go tune Chuck's guitar because we new the wrath that would follow if we got caught. Luckily, one of the grunts picked the straw that put him in harms way and the mission was accomplished without Chuck ever knowing it.

Keith Richards is amazing. From point of view it's not him being one of the best guitar players ever if how you rate them is how well, or complicated they can play, but rather you know it's him playing in almost any song. He created his own sound which I think it's a big reason or even main reason The Stones music is so iconic. He is the Chuck Berry of his own brand of rock music.

[@manchesterexplorer8519]

People often rate guitar players by complexity which is ridiculous. For example Eddie Van Halen was an excellent guitar player that had a very complex style , but in the long run somebody like Keith Richards had the better riffs and a plethora of great unfrogettable Rolling Stones songs while Van Halen as a band has maybe 3 great songs and a ton of filler.

They were at a club in Connecticut at the time, and they played a set of old blues tunes together, and a photographer just happened to be present at the time. The first Stones tune we ever heard together was their version of Chuck Berry's "Around and Around'. One of the things I remember about my brother is that he hated to be called 'Chuck'.

Just Keith an inspiration wonderful to see this

[@rflmda5262]

A legend in his own world but what a character with a warm heart in another. Makes him feel like a person off the stage if you know what I mean.

[@raycrow1949]

I don't think Jimmy got it: ''I ate Chuck Berry with CREAM on it '' and Jimmy says "mustard" ...... what?

[@inocente106]

Right!! that's one way to kill a fucking joke.. Thanks Fallon.. you POS..

[@alabamaworley1707]

Awe, come on….He's nervous…He's sitting next to Keith Richards!

[@thebrazilianatlantis165]

"Awe, come on….He's nervous" Guess he's in the right line of work then.

[@randybradley4151]

Usually you do put mustard on a sandwich and Chuck gave him a knuckle sandwich.

[@vincepetrovic8700]

Not unlike when the Stones were on Shindig and the guy asked what’s a Howlin’ Wolf?

[@Boddah.]

You gotta love Chuck Berry

[@cliveedwards2958]

Kieth always makes me smile and feel good about life..he

[@soundwavs1961c]

He cracks me up always! :D

[@Silirion]

Hard to not get the picture of a pirate captain in mind when seeing him now.. =)

[@frederickyoerg7220]

Keith actually died 14 years ago, but the Grim Reaper is not going to bug him about it. As long as Mick can still sing and pay his child support....rock on

[@josepharmeni8040]

He forgot.to.lay down!

[@josepharmeni8040]

I read ,or heard a story ,that every couple.of months, Richards would fly to France to get blood transfusions, and he didnit,have an airplane! I did hear that.

[@josepharmeni8040]

Some of my favorite stones songs, are.by him! All about you,walk before they make me run! Of coarse,I have no idea, what he is singing!

[@richochett404]

I thought he was executed with Hillary at Guantanamo.

[@onlywayhenrique623]

This guy is simply AMAZING !!

[@rebeccawagner4167]

Keith Richards is a very kind,charming, intelligent, classy,no glitz no frills type of man.I love him he's such a sweet soul and his presence will llast forever and ever 🎉🎉

[@listener84]

Jimmy missed the “berries and cream” joke Keef made 😂😂 “Jimmy, nobody puts mustard on berries you facking yank”

[@listener84]

Agent J you put the tard in mustard if you don’t see the irony in all this. The joke was lost on you

[@Fuq2]

Jimmy can't cut the mustard

[@davektver2863]

Makes me wonder.... with all the environmental damage we're doing to our planet, what kind of world are we going to leave for Keith Richards? (The man's gonna live forever if death ain't got him yet).

[@robertopinci]

Love him and the greatest Rolling

[@sartainja]

He is such a cool down to Earth person.
