You know what I mean, the concert versions of his songs are extremely watered down elevator music type knockoffs.

I suspect you haven't actually followed Clapton, right? You should take a look at some setlists; very little elevator music.

I soured on elevator music since the last time it left me hanging in between moods.

Not to take anything away from him, but Taylor plays nothing like the way he did when he was with the Stones. His version of CYHMK is very jazzy. I am very curious to see how this sounds but I fear anyone expecting a Brussels version of "Shelter" will be disappointed. Hope I'm wrong.

Not to take anything away from THEM, but Ron Wood and Keith Richards aren't exactly in 1973 form either. Maybe you haven't noticed.

Good lord, I'm sitting here in Amsterdam, with a flight booked for Seattle in the morning. So tempting to hop one to London instead and see the real Rolling Stones. I am suddenly envious of all you folks with London tickets. If they confirm Taylor and Wyman for the NY area shows I'll definitely be going, but I doubt they'll get Bill to fly.

And they only "approached" Taylor yesterday? What up with that?

Very exciting to hear that it has been confirmed!!!

•••••••••••••••••••

The only caveat is that Taylor's amp won't be plugged to the PA system, so he's going to have to turn up to 11.

I hope he does, someone has to make the noise.

You actually PAID what we charged you? That's how our little country get all our income....multiplying the price with 50 for all tourists. Thanks for the dollars! HA!

Absolutely I have noticed. Doesn't change a thing in my original statement. In my human opinion, based on seeing Taylor at the Iridium and Ronnie in Atlantic City,Ronnie is at present the stronger "Stones" player. I very much look forward to seeing a healthy, focused Taylor.

Maybe you should send a complaint to BV and to The Rolling Stones company instead?

Maybe you should?

One song apiece is my bet:

Taylor: "Can't You Hear Me Knockin'"
Wyman: "Happy"


That's All, Folks!

Holy crap, it's really happening!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE

It didn't seem like the "not paying" option was available, Erik.

Will be cool to see the six of them together. 3 days to go...

This is how they sounded the last time they played together. Taylor loud and clear from 03:00:

I was 100% sure that MT and BW would be joining on stage. I mean, it was the obvious conclusion of all the things I read here in the past year.

What is suspect is the timing of this "official" news.

I am quite sure that it has much to do with the tickets yet unsold ...

Apparantly, Taylor wasn't asked before yesterday if he would guest...
