The China Bigger Bang renditions of both Bitch and Gimme Shelter are poor, poor, Keith performances imo. I played around with my TV in ordrer to get Keiths channel out of both speakers: it was shocking, to be frank.

Most if not all of his BB Tour performances are not note worthy. The man just can't play anymore. He became a poser, a parody and a victim of his own legend. People (and media) expect to see some sort of the Keith they think to know from the 70's but forgetting that all these stories are 35 years ago and that he is in his mid 60s now. He tries hard to fulfill all these expectations but its just sad seeing him acting like he does nowadays. He's old and cannot play the guitar anymore. He and anyone else should accept this eventually.

IMO the only possibility is to slow down, forget the big stages...downsize everything...and record something in the style of cashs american recordings...

Yes - but would result in better guitar-work by Keith?

Can't agree with that. The man is out of the limelight entirely except for Stones-related matters. I.E, tours, promotion etc. Aside from the odd guest appearance or sighting at a premiere, when is he in the tabloids? Falling out of cocunut trees and snorting his fathers ashes being notable exceptions!
