My Dad has Vascular Dementia and Alzheimers in the early stages - it's different for everyone - he knows what things look like, but sometimes needs prompting to remember what things are called!! He remembers words to songs and how they go, and he laughs and smiles a lot which really is the most important thing.
Keith's said recently that he doesn't practice as much as he should, that his fingers remember where things are even if his brain doesn't quite remember - playing tunes on the guitar is in some ways similar to touch typing - your brain might be saying "what's next?" and the fingers simply go there as if by magic!!! I'd guess that's what Keith's referring to - if Mick doubted in any way that touring wouldn't be viable, he would not go ahead with a tour - he wouldn't want to risk it on many fronts - not just as a business, but more importantly, it's the band's reputation - the whole band would want to be remembered in a good way - isn't that the reason why they've recently been rehearsing with Bill Wyman???
