Right, because he never did that with The Stones.Quote

Mick had to call them back into the song. Amateurs.

There's more to music than just "swinging". You can play rockand not swing and it's still good. Enough already with using "it didn't swing" as an excuse to downplay the Foo Fighters' performance!and roll

I swear, if Keith hadn't said what he said about "a lot of people rock but don't roll" or whatever the hell it was he said, a lot of you wouldn't have the mind to be able to come up with your own thought.

I just watched it on Daily Motion.
I think that's pretty great!!.
And that IS the groove that the Stones should have played it live in (although I think they nicked it from Get In On - T Rex).

Are you kidding? Do you really believe Keith has anything to do with it?
Go through your history books, and find out when the term rock music started.
Christ, they played rock´n´roll in the late 40s already. It is a unique musical style - and has a lot to do with rhythm, you know...
Keith´s "roll-remark" is really a humorous take on it.
Agreed totally!Quote

I saw a nice kind of chemistry between Mick and the band. They appeared to be enjoying themselves
with these great songs and their enthusiasm infected me. I was quite amazed to see a band perform
these songs so close to the original and NOT become a slave to a note by note delivery.
The performance had a very natural atmosphere, the artists playing relaxed, yet very focused.
I liked it, yes I did.

Have not heard Mick sing with this much commitment or passion for YEARS, it's wonderful to hear Jagger sing the song in its "original" arrangement, high notes, quiet sections, change in tempos, and to hear the full blooded cynicism that the song can deliver.
Who was the musical director on these?
Also loved the other performances!
Wish he would tackle the Stones in the same way!

You seem to have missed the point entirely. And I'm talking more about the way people interpreate Keith's remark and use it as a way to elevate the Stones and put other bands down. I know damn well when the term "rock music" entered the lexicon, but that has nothing to do with anything.

....My question is, how many of you can actually define "swing"?
