The Rolling Stones were good and they don't have dead members

The Stones can actually get along with one another. John was getting too involved you Yoko. George and Paul didn't like each other. Paul often made it hard or George to get his music in. Infact, George even said that he would do a runion with Ringo and John, but never Paul. Ringo was just sick of never being able to contribute to the band. He actually left for a short time during the production of the white album.

this is all true, but allow me to add my comments on a more intimate level, not comparing them to any other band, although i completely agree that the above comments shaped The Beatles' breakup along with some other factors. the Rolling Stones could live with each other, and they do have dead members, but they slugged through and i really think that mick and Keith love each other dearly, and therefore Ron and charlie too. this and they enjoy what they do. they are constantly asked this question and they say because they like their job.

What was the difference between The Beatles and The Rolling Stones?

The Beatles began life the same way as the Rolling Stones, a few years earlier. They both started as teen R&B cover bands. The Beatles began to write their own songs, and eventually hit it big in 1962 with a Lennon/McCartney song. The Rolling Stones came to popularity the following year. While the Beatles had moved out of the R&B style to a more pop-oriented one, the Rolling Stones were still R&B. The Rolling Stones' second single was a cover of a Lennon/McCartney song, "I Wanna Be Your Man". If you mean strictly in musical style, it would be best to listen to the two different versions, though they are very similar. Overall, the Rolling Stones stayed in the heavier, R&B style, while the Beatles experimented with several. The Rolling Stones were regarded by some (including John Lennon himself) as constantly one step behind the Beatles, though most Rolling Stones fans would protest. The Beatles also had immense tensions in the group, beginning around 1965, until their eventual breakup late in 1969. The Rolling Stones have suffered through similar tension, but have remained together up to this very day.
