I disagree. While I liked the FF and I think it meant a lot to them to play with Jagger; the medley was cool. But w/ the Arcade there was an overall brilliant sound; the whole song rolling at you.
The FF segment was more like a study in rock.

In the manner of Jimmy Page touring in 2000 with the Black Crowes, how about a Mick and Foo Fighters tour?

I'd go. It would sound better than the Stones.[/quote

if you call yourself a stones fan you are an imposter!!!!!!

Perfect publicity for the Stones' music.

Well Foo Fighters were better than Arcade Fire. That's the best I can say about it. Let's hope the improvement continues with Jeff Beck. Overall it seems a bit forced when not being backed by the rest of the Stones.

I disagree to your disagreement. I thought Arcade Fire had a bland sound, it didn't rock me.

Agreed. AF is a much better band, as should be patently obvious to anyone not hung up on '70s cock-rock.

Well after watching SNL and seeing Mick being Mick Jagger, I'd like to thank Keith for keeping the Stones rock and blues based since the '80's. We just saw what direction Mick would have taken the band had he gotten his way when he was trying to become the next Thriller with She's the Boss. Nothing wrong with that mind you, but it's not the Stones.

I can't agree with your double disagreement. Arcade Fire vs Rock 101

You hit the nail on the head. that was exactly the point of tonight's episode, in my opinion. To drum up support from a younger audience.

I'm thinkng Mick could have at least quickly thanked Keith for writing tonights closing number for him and the cast to sing.

I look forward to finding out what the hell happened the past couple of weeks between Jagger and Richards.
No Stones? No Keith? Something happened, and whatever it was, it wasn't good.
Were the words "Rolling Stones" ever even mentioned once? I can't remember.
I sure heard a bunch of their songs.

Funny, since the 80's everybody says they lost it.

You people are not only delusional, but adolescent.
You sound like you've been shut off in your room listening to the Stones, reading about the Stones, obsessing about the Stones for the last 30 years. And you're still 14 years old.
The Stones will go on no matter Mick, Keith or Ronnie do when they're not together...at some point.
Lighten the @#$%& up. They don't live for you and they are five different people...
Sheesh!

Yeah, you had 3 tunes referenced during the karaoke skit including a MJ droll take on Satisfaction, you had the gospelly acapella verse intro by 'group 1' leading into group 2, Arcade fire rocking Last Time. You had the Foos (group 3) doing both Nervous and the first version of IORR in a long time with the 'breakdown' version like the studio cut. You had group 4, Jeff Beck with Mick, doing an off-the-cuff contemporary-themed improv and you had the house band plus some AF-people (group 5) with the She's a Rainbow sendoff for Wiig. A Stones' reunion playing SMU, JJF and whatever would NOT have been a better publicity promo for the band's music and in no way precludes them from announcing something later this year, which they have ALWAYS done as it's own event, not shared with a tv show. Very effective.
