Absolutley. And not because of some faute de mieux feeling. But very enthusiastically.

Yes - Mick Taylor is a bonus, but he's not the only reason these shows have been worth seeing.
Regards the question of "are they playing better than in the past" - it depends which bit of the past you're talking about. Certainly much better than the recent past of ABB.

I have heard the European fans complain about Keith on the 2007 leg of the ABB tour. I heard him in 2006, after the accident, and he was fine, although I don't remember much about his playing. I saw them at Dodger Stadium and it wasn't as much about the music as it was about the show. I've seen them on every tour since '89 and No Security is the best I remember Keith. I definitely don't think Keith is playing great on this tour, although there are moments. People seem to be satisfied when the guitars are right on a song.
Personally I think there's a lot of nostalgia on this tour, although they pulled it off better on Steel Wheels. We're a quarter of a century down the road from that tour. The 60s are even further back in our collective memory. Emotional Rescue feels like a long time ago now.
