It's kind of hard to get excited about shows from an era that is well documented on DVD. I kind of thought the spirit was to illuminate well known boots in a higher quality. I would definitely pass on this one, enjoy the many 'lovely things' we've already received, and hope that the August release is more tasty.

The band that started off the ABB tour and the band that ended the ABB tour were two different bands and a lot had happened in between with what eventually was captured in those DVDs. We are looking at a relatively healthy Keith coming off the Licks tour and ready to go on this new tour so we should be in for a nice snapshot of the band before everything was lost forever (Shine A Light, in particular).
I saw them twice, in 2005 and at the end in 2006 in America. Excellent shows. But again, well documented. And we've got Get Up, Stand Up, and Mr. Pitiful as bonus material on The Biggest Bang. There's just not enough ooomph there, especially sinc the preceeding boot releases were so marvelous. Maybe this is for the younger fans, who may not be as judgmental about the Stones sound. I can hardly take Daryll's thudding bass on some songs. And that's my problem.
I'm looking forward to it and there's no reason to assume it won't be just as good as any of the other releases, they've showed no signs of releasing any clunkers. The performances can still be amazing on this release and people here will still crap on it just because it wasn't a vintage release. It's the Stones...it's the vaults..I'll take it.
