Mick was awesome.

(BTW Bob Dylan was awesome too)

The Band that backed up the Jag was Raphael Saadiq's band with Raphael on guitar.

Just saw it on TV in California time, and LOVED it!!

One thing came to mind that has before: Mick is a great performer; the entire audience tonight was on its feet, and Mick did his thing of showing incredible energy without it looking coldly choreographed. Most other performers either stand dead still, or they move with very unspontaneous-like dance moves. Since Mick is so effective why don't more performers emulate what Mick does?!

"Since Mick is so effective why don't more performers emulate what Mick does?!"


Easier said than done.

Mick was great! I would have loved to see more; 'I've Been Lovin' You Too Long' would have been fantastic.

Fantastic job Mick!

As Soloman said at the LA Licks gig - "The Crown Prince of Rock and Roll". Mick rocked the house like no one else can.

It's my recollection that he said to mick he was the "true king of rock and roll" ? am i wrong? there's even a bootleg with that title...

at the Wiltern 02, while solomon placing the cape on mick (obviously unrehersed)....mick looked flabberasted and shot looks at everyone like "oh my god" almost trying to give the cape back. tonight he thought it appropriate to wear....

i didn't notice but a friend pointed out that he was wearing a "Burger King crown" beltbuckle...

Oh, please, please, who can - share the video of Mick`s performance! ( with Megaupload or something ) It`s already damn blocked today on youtube and Brazil site

Thrilled to see Mick. At the end, he looked like he just remembered how f-ing great crowd appreciation feels. He did his Bigger Bang bow.

Bieber was robbed. That was a shame. I love that kid -- should've gotten Best New Artist.

The Grammys had that video blocked before anyone had time to blink.

Gee, thanks Sicilian! I know we who are out in the wild wilderness of the west don't have electricity or this whole tv thing. In fact, I'm on my computer via steam-powered generator. But at least let me know what Mick sang!!

Sicilian is just jealous cause he's been shoveling snow all month (or is it 2 months now?). Out here in LA it was 80 degrees and blue sky's yesterday (but we're so used to it that it almost get's boring.... then all the hot babes walk around with not too much on, it's all so hard to handle....)

All month? How about since November non stop. Anyways most of them are probably trannys

Naw man, no where near trannys.... dumb as f*ckin' rocks (I'll go with that one) but definitely not one tranny in the whole group - good comeback on that one my man ")

I dig living where there are actual seasons. Having the same weather all year round would be dreadful, even if it meant 80 and sunny every day. There'd be nothing to look forward to.

Fantastic performance - Mick rocked the house! He never ceases to amaze us. Brilliant

the highlight of the night for me was the fact that Mr. Hot Shot Insider aka. mitchflorida was wrong

The Stones' London office is closed right now, but they will be getting an earful from me later today! I am pissed off like you are .

This is MUCH better than the versions of the song played in 2002-03.
Methink Jagger holds the burden of the Stones and looks forward to the day when he can play with diff. younger musicians.

Face it most of the RS are disabled in one way or another (Keith : finished Charlie : bored Ron : well...) while Mick still has energy and youth.

He might have welcomed the todger incident as a blessing from the sky.

Woooooooooooosh, man alive!!!

Damn he's good!!! Walking miracle, whatever it is he still has it!

Inspired performance, hot band, wonderful!

Here's a few more just because....

,!!!!!

Did not like it all. Jagger seemed a walking parody of himself. Oh my god, now i will bad things said to me. come on guys, this was a waste to see. running and shouting? let him act his age. Burke would not have liked it at all.
bye jeroen

Thought it was great. He's still got it. Let's tour, guys!

I disagree. Why is he a 'parody' of himself. There's no 'parody' involved, all he's doing is actually being himself. The performance is pure Jagger, he's pretty much doing what he's always done. Perhaps you're of the opinion that he's simply too old now to be 'behaving' like that ? On the strength of THAT performance, I'd say absolutely NOT, I thought it was great, it was him being the Mick Jagger the world has always known, and doing what Mick Jagger does best. I imagine the good reverend would be looking down fondly and nodding his head with 100 percent approval. Ten out of ten Sir Mick.

+1

I found Mick exciting to watch, kvetching about his voice aside (dude is a senior citizen, we all lose it in the end).

Looking at how excited the audience was, it was as much a tribute to Mick Jagger as it was Solomon Burke.

wow, wow, wow, @#$%& brilliant!!!
