Stop dreaming.
Apart from the theaters, the Stones are mostly playing to "tourists". I know that we all crave for some rare stuff to be in the set, but please remember that they need to balance the needs and desires of everyone at the gigs.
Here is my formula:
Put in a few greatest hits- e.g. Brown SUgar, Street Fighting Man, Honky Tonk Women, Jumping Jack Flash, Tumbling Dice etc.
Put n a few classic album tracks - e.g. Midnight Rambler, Gimme Shelter, Dead Flowers etc
Put in some new stuff - e.g. Oh No Not You Again
Raid the back catalogue for classic but rarely or never played songs- e.g. Sway, KYHMK, Let it Loose
Put in an early 60s song not often played - e.g. Around and Around, Carol, Route 66, Walking the Dog
And finally, find one very rare song as a feature (like they did with 2000 Light years on SW tour).
