Any opinions?

I saw DC, Charlottesville, and Charlotte....I haven't heard most of the boots from this leg yet, either, so I can't make a very objective opinion...BUT....

C'ville was definitely the best of the lot that I saw...Sweet VA, All Down the Line, No Keith Tunes, Sympathy-Midnight Rambler-Paint it Black all in a row....

youngest and most energetic crowd I've seen at a Stadium Show....

Charlotte crowd was quite good as well....DC crowd was average....but "Back of My Hand" was INTENSE....SOOOOO GREAT!!!

Stones rule.

I saw Durham and both shows in Philadelphia.
The 2nd show in Philadelphia was the best one.

chicago was damed good!!!

I agree...Chicago was awesome!

In my opinion Chicago was great....

i think hershey show in pa..was one of their best.....better than philly 1...and better than any show that i saw since 1975

Chicago. Soldier Field.

Bjornulf

Atlanta as usual!

I'll second that.

yeah, fine....but WHAT made Chicago so great?

set list?
crowd?
band energy?
free weed?
Girls Gone Wild filming on location?
lots of drunks?
no drunks?


what's the scoop?

all of the above plus great weather

Durham was my fave.
After an average DC and the very HIGHs and LOWs of Charlottesville
Durham was a great time all night. Nice crowd. They sold beer! (Charlottesville was dry!) And the security was almost none. People pretty much just having a great Sat. night. You could almost sit where you wanted and i saw no one checking seats to get on the floor.

did hartford , giants , hershey , philly 2 , & the easy winner is hershey ,, although hartford had the very loud croud

Lucky bastards!... For the time being i can only hear the boots...

I have seen nearly every show and ALBANY was the best, hands down!

I saw Hartford and Durham. Both were great, but Hartford was the better of the two.

I saw the first 3 shows of the tour, and I thought Hartford was really kick ass.

i saw msg,giant stadium,aND FIRST PHILLIE SHOW.msg was a killer show,they were on fire.msg by a landslide.

COLUMBUS was the best. We had Sway and an overall great setlist. The band was amazing and the opening act was superb.

albany was the best out of my three times so far...

For me, after 8 shows,

Stadium - Charlottesville (listen to the boot!)

Arena - Columbus and Philly 2 (tie)

anyone else see giants stadium or was it just me?

Only 2 shows

MSG and Giants

Giants was the better show (for me)

But arena and stadium shows are difficult do compare.

MSG was a hot show indeed, but Ronnie messed his solos on the 2 1st songs.
Satisfaction also sounded weird, but the rest of the show was really great, especially 19th NB and Get up Stand Up, which put the house on fire. We we under the impression of seeing a club show.

Giants was great IMO. Hard to explain, but there was something in the air.
Sympathy just sounded awesome to my ears.

Best - the one(s) you attended

Second best - the one(s) you didn't attend

Third best - the one(s) with the boring setlist(s) that annoyed you

Fourth best - the one in which Ron ostensibly messed up a faithful repro of Sway and annoyed you

Fifth best - the one in which Darryl looked at his chubbiest yet and annoyed only thin people

Sixth best - the one in which you didn't approve of Keith's wardrobe

Seventh best - the one in which you didn't approve of Mick's dance moves

Eighth best - the one in which the guy next to you drank too much beer and kept on disturbing you on his way to/from the toilet

Ninth best - the one in which the corporate couple behind you kept on tapping you on the shoulder asking you to sit down

Tenth best - the one in which a Dutch guy who until recently used to play in a Stones tribute band leapt up on stage, confiscated Ron's guitar and paint brushes and helped the band finish the show by playing Ron's part properly - just like the record

thats funny.......the dutch guy!!!!

Hershey Park the BEST by far! Awesome set list, near flawless playing, Charlottesville, a close second...
