For those of you who remember i was the guy who put on a Stones concert everytime the Stones did a show on the A Bigger Bang tour, where I would build a stage play the same setlist they did and play the role of Keith on guitar.

1) For those of you who remember i was the guy who put on a Stones concert everytime the Stones did a show on the A Bigger Bang tour, where I would build a stage play the same setlist they did and play the role of Keith on guitar.
2) Well I was getting bored so over the summer i put together a new Stones idea. I took a 60 inch plasm tv screen that was on my wall and built a stage around it. used a long table as a stage and build vertical supports on each side of the table and then used planks of wood to build rafters on top. I used the raftes to hang all sorts of lights raging from LEDs to christmas lights to fire truck red lights to color disco ball lights. I built microphones and key boards out of legos, a drum set out of spools of yarn and i used all the stones cds as amps. I found pictures of the stones online printed them out and proped them up on the stage. For sound I used a 7.1 surround sound system, 3 speakers above the video screen, 2 above each each side of the stage and 2 in the back of the venue, I put a subwoffer under the couch for the VIP seats.
I have done this before but nothing this insane. I had The Oak Ridge Boys and Paul McCartney as opening acts.

I don't get it at all. It is really obscure
What is this you did (1) during the Bigger Bang tour ? You built a stage in your apartment ?

Maybe I'm missing something here... Isn't printing up cutouts of the band, building a stage out of tables and drums out of spools, and mics out of legos... a bit... obsessive...? I love your enthusiasm, but this is way out there for me.
I don't worship the Stones, I just love the music they produce...
Help me out if I'm missing something.

I do not have any video clips of it because i did not want it on youtube. This is because i wanted people to actually come see it without sitting at home and watching it on a computer, I watched the people watching the show making sure they did not record it.
I do have photos of all 3 sets of The Oak Ridge Boys, Paul and the Stones, I just need to figure out how to do the url thing to get them posted on here.So if anyone knows please tell me how so you can see them.
Redsock - Your right I do it because I love doing it and plus I get to listen to and watch songs being preformed by my favorite band. No matter how crazy things are that I do, I have gotten people to see how creative I can get, My goal is to get as many people to watch or listen to the Stones as posible so if they tour again they will take the oppruitunity to buy a ticket and go see them.
And with everyone who came to a show I would put everyones name in a box and pull out a name and you could win a Rolling Stones Greatest Hits cd that i made. When we did the Hershey PA show you also won a Hershery bar,For The Darien Lake show which is out side of buffalo, We gave away 2 free tickets for the winner and a friend to go to the park and spend the day. For Las Vegas we gave away a deck of cards.
Everyone wants me to do it again next year, its a lot of work but will see. Doing that and balancing 4 other jobs is tough.
