That is just fantastic.
I've never been a big fan of that song live (too draggy).. but that does it justice.
Mick's vocal is spot on.
Beautiful.

Re going to the fence. Forget it! We tried 3 times and got threatened with expulsion. Even during the encore you could not do it. On our side (Keith side) the only people standing at the fence were those who had seats in the front row.
I could not believe how docile the crowd was in A3, even compared to 2007. If lots of people had moved into the aisle for the last few numbers it would have been OK, but everyone stayed absolutely in their pre-designatedplaces...

I've never liked the song. But in all honestly, last night the performance of that song last night made the hairs on my neck stand.

Hey Johnnythunders, we were a bit more laid back over in A1 where people could go to the rail but not in front of the aisle. Things were reasonably animated too, probably more due to the group of French twenty-somethings who had blagged their way there from the back of the arena and were totally in to their first Stones gig rather than the others with VIP badges stuck to various parts of their anatomy.

From the Clash Music review:
"The return of ex-guitarist Mick Taylor - whose exit from the band in 1974 paved the way for Wood - proved the highlight of the whole gig. Always their best guitarist, and the player who contributed to the Stones' peak era of 1969 to 1972, his effortless weaving of 'Midnight Rambler' alongside Ronnie and Keith injected the song with an authentic bite of its original, and every bit as good as the scathing 'Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out' live 1969 version."
Damn. Someone, anyone, please post a video
i think most people were stunned and stopped filming.
He was great, playful almost, took center stage, which seeing the old clips he never seemed to do. I'm not a huge guitar solo fan, so it did go on a bit , but that's just a personal thing anyway. As he walked off stage he just shrugged his shoulders at Lisa, which was funny, a bit like, "well, hope that went OK!".
