I was thinking about this Erik...first, aside from MT being a w@nker for leaving the band...
For last night's concert, the Stones did not want to incite riot by unleashing MT's full talent. Tumbling Dice and Honky Tonk would have showcased MT's talents EVEN MORE than Rambler. Rambler holds MT in check by its stops, except for the end.
By contrast, what MT was doing in '72-'73 with Tumbling, Honky Tonk, even Brown Sugar was more lyrical. His playing might have STOLEN EVEN MORE LIMELIGHT from the others, perhaps resulting in a riot to reinstate him.

Well, I suppose we can now officially talk about Mick Taylor's "controversial" appearance with the Stones.
The first "controversial" MT guest spot. The second one will be Thursday when he uses that newfound stage movement to even greater effect and completes a walk around the pit circle causing Jagger's jaw to drop in admiration at his shy former guitarist's new willingness to engage. He is 'hired' on the spot to play 6-7 songs a night on the 2013 tour and given immediate access to Stones' security, trainers, tech crew and Chuck's live song arrangements coaching to get ready.
The third controversial Taylor show will be in NJ when he steps up to the mic and nails all of the scraggly harmonies that Keith should be singing. The fourth controversial Taylor appearance will be NJ#2 on the PPV when MJ's mic cuts out again on Miss You and MT runs out onstage from the wings and covers Jagger's falsetto lead vocals flawlessly on Bernard's mic until MJ's mic problems are fixed. The controversies are just gettin' started, 71Tele.

Put Mick Taylor back in the barbands playing time waits for no one. This was a to big show for him or let him play in a Stones coverband in Vegas. Thank god for Ronnie, he is the reason the band are still together.

Was not a prediction.
I was told he is to play the remaining shows that are currently planned.
I know nothing more and I doubt I would say even if I did at this point.
The Stones did make a little bit of a blunder, Thay should of had MT in the King Kong suit face and all had him roll up on the stage in a cage and Jagger take a key and let him out,do his thing and then after it's done let the straight jacket guys take him away that would of been great marketing!Quote
