Mick repeats the phrase "I think we've got a problem" several times during Live With Me, what was that about?

I think Keith's guitar went awol, as his solo was supposed to be there. He could have stepped on his guitar cord and pulled it out. That used to happen alot. No wonder they went wireless! Or maybe the cord went bad or his amp blew. Sure was a problem though. Cheers

Right. This was after all the first tour with PA systems. And the guitar amps were constantly overheating. (Mathijs might know the details better) but I read that on this tour Keith's technicians rotaTED Keith's amps constantly becasue they overheated so bdly.
Must have been a nightmare early on when they didn't have the right mikes for drums, or lowend Bass amps etc. Or as far up as 72 we still see Jagger just adjust his own vocal mike for Bobby's sax solos.

"I think we got a problem", was from the second set when Bill Graham and some crew member were duking it out onstage. Don't you people know Stones history?

No, close but.... that would ACTUALLY be Michael Cohl and the arena owners fighting over a couple of misplaced quarters.......
