STONED STONE'S ADVICE TO SON

April 15, 2002 -- The son of Rolling Stones guitarist Ron Wood says his
rocker dad - now in rehab - knew he was shooting heroin at the age of 14
and merely advised him: Don't overdo it.

Jamie Wood, now 27, says his wildman father told him, "I know what you're
doing, man, what drugs you're taking and I only have one thing to say:
Don't let drugs rule your life or become everything in your whole life.

"Make sure you have something else . . . to balance it out with."

Jamie told London's News of the World, "People used to give me drugs
because I was Ronnie Wood's kid. I certainly never had the money to pay for
them."

Big-boozing Ron, 55, is currently being treated at the Meadows Clinic in
Arizona as the Stones prepare for their final world tour.

"I told Dad that I thought it would be a very good idea if he checked into
a rehab clinic and sorted himself out," Jamie said.

"He's 55 and about to do 120 shows. It's essential he gets match-fit. Mick
[Jagger] came round to the house, had a chat with Dad and suggested the
rehab, too.

"After all, there are millions of [dollars] at stake with the tour and he
can't afford for anything to go wrong."
