Looks more than solid to me. You also have to factor in, the vast MAJORITY of people attending gigs don't want obscure album tracks, they want to hear the so called 'classics' and have a good nights entertainment
It doesn't matter what a few hundred of us would prefer. You have to cater for the majority

TRUE, I think - and unless what I said in the O2 update threat (I was too thrilled and thinking there are mostly hardcore fans at this show) - Stones are professionals and deliver to the mayority - and so is the setlist......! No problem.....the show should be enjoyed and not be analyzed tooo much...!!!

I think we have reached a point where the setlist doesn't matter that much. It's the deliverance that matters. And I'm afraid Mick's voice is a bit of a spoiler these days.
And the pointing and strutting only makes it worse.

Well, at least he hasn't hired allison krauss to sing every word in unison with him and hit his high notes for him like robert plant has.

You can't judge a show based on the set list...

At one point Mick 'joked' it was time to play the whole Satanic Majesties album, so be thankful for small mercies! I must be very non hard core because I loved the set list.

I thought that it was an amazing setlist. I think many people who don't have as much experience attending shows by major artists don't understand that the second half of a show has always been dedicated to the artists' most well-known tracks. It's primarily for reasons of pacing. Smaller bands with a core group of fans have more flexibility.
Why would anyone on this Board care what Paul McCartney (or Billy Joel or Elton John or anyone else) played in concert? Is there a point here?

Most of these songs are no more than 2-3 minutes in length.

Rehashing the same old songs to please the majority is DOA.

Well, the Paul McCartney/Rolling Stones comparison sure didn't take long!
