Groningen June 2

Day 5: Wednesday June 2 - Groningen

Review by Oeds Jan Koster

I saw and heard a fantastic concert last night. After Catantonia who opened for the Stones and recieved some undeserved heavy rainshowers, at a few minutes after 21.00 the video started. Jumping jack flash was a great starter. You allready know the setlist. For me there were three highlights: Paint it black, Thief in the night and Midnight Rambler.

Overall it was a great concert with Stones who gave their best. Charlie's 58th birthday was heavilly celebrated, Keith played at his best and Mick jumped aroun as in his younger days. I clocked Midnight Rambler, not exactly, at 9 minutes. It was played very good and was followed by Sympathy for the devil, a nice thing to see those songs back to back after the Bstage.

Last night we had a wonderful concert under the one and only Babylon building - the Gasunionbuilding - witch was a perfect decor. Heavy rain, just before the concert started made the audience get in an even better mood then they already were. The Groningen audiance were most of so proud that the Stones were in this city, amazing to see! One great party, before and long after the concert. Groningen wil remember this concert for ages.

The setlist was allmost the same as in Imst changes were Angie, Thief In The Night, Like A Rolling Stone, and Satisfaction as encore.

Day 6: Going to Edinburgh

Driving with friends to Utrecht in the night, then a night train, I had my breakfast 4am in the morning in Burger King Schiphol, then found my way through some strange flights up to Scotland, where hundreds of fans were all around the Balmoral Hotel, to may be see the Stones. Never seen such a big crowd!
