You are a good person with a positive attitude and that is a good thing. Keep on rocking and having fun and doing it your way. Rock on.
Thanks relms, that's very nice of you to say, and I feel the same way about you. If you're a single woman, maybe we should talk...
But anyway, this is an incredibly fun tour, with the periscoping, it's truly amazing to be watching and listening to these shows as they're going on. It tops a lot of the other geeky stuff us fans do on the internet.... And thanks to apple, too! I'm just happy and grateful to be watching and listening to these shows as they're going on. So, the internet is proving to be good for something other than selling products, actually... Long live the Stones!

Haha. Oh great, We're two ugly dudes. It's getting worse for me on this website. I'm getting my ass kicked at every turn here. I should've never picked the name "SackofBrokenEggs." What did I expect.... Cheers, relms. Here's to you, loves...
why don't you two go get a room...and play pool or cards or something while listening to Tattoo You (side two).
Do you have to try to be a dick, or does it come naturalust to you?

Or I guess download a book, proper interneting is hard.
Agree. I will quit bitching if and when they release the Fonda show on CD and blu ray. Not until then!!!!!Quote

I think there's been a lot of positive reactions and comments to this tour along with legitimate complaints from some. Pretty well balanced from what I've seen, although I don't read every single thread.
Exactly. Many of us who voice complaints also voice strong positives of what we enjoy. Being a passionate fan is one of the many reasons I enjoy coming to this forum. And as someone who paid $740 for two tickets to a show this tour, I think I am entitled to gripe about the setlist a bit!

Look relms you dragged me into this. In the interest of keeping the board civil and not to get personal, I suggest we both just delete any offensive posts. I have done so. If you want to keep getting personal I imagine you will find yourself looking in from the outside in pretty short order.
peace
You got very personal with me today, and now you talk like this?
You came at me. Stop doing that and and we will have no issues. And drop the peace line, it is a lie. And try to add some actual content sometime, not just your baseless opinion.

Listening to the periscopes and Youtubes I am flabbergasted how great they are sounding. It is magic!

IORRians...It's 2015. The Rolling Stones are not the same band they were in 1968. There is nothing wrong with that. They gave us a rich legacy of music that will live forever and they owe us, their fans, nothing. Fortunately, we have pristine studio versions of their timeless compositions (the warhorses) on multiple types of media so we may enjoy them at our leisure from now until the cows some home. And thanks to the fact that in spite of their numerous behavioral detours along the way, they recorded and preserved their live shows back in the day so may enjoy them now as well. Brussels, LA 1975, Leeds, Hampton Roads, etc. I'm sure there are more to come.
Bottom line is that the Rolling Stones are not as hungry as they were in 1968, 69, 70, 71, and 72. They persevered and they achieved success. Enormous, world wide success. They should not be punished for this. We should be thankful they are still putting on great shows for enthusiastic audiences. Shows they take seriously and that they stage so the greatest numbers of fans may experience and enjoy them to the highest degree. The Stones have nothing to gain and everything to lose if they tried to write songs like they did 45 - 50 years ago. That simply ain't gonn'a happen.
Beatles fans can't buy tickets to see them perform live. Stones fans can. We should stop all this bitching and moaning about set lists and warhorses and enjoy them while we can. It ain't going to last forever. Wake up!

Almost spit my coffee on the computer screen when I read this.If the 1965 version of Mick Jagger saw himself today, he'd kick his butt for mailing it in!

Really? I watched the Gimme Shelter video from Pittsburgh and Mick sounds flat. Maybe it is just the recording quality.
