Good song selection, tight band, polished professional performance: the Stones did well what they had to do. That said, JJF had truly a wicked groove. The greatness of this band is that even an ordinary "polished professional performance" is something else.

It was both a joke, but UK has also been damaged by some heavy floodings. Happens all over the world every year - both too much rain and water and too little rain and water with the same or even worse consequences.... just take a look at Africa or South East Asia...Quote

That's what he thinks Sandy was? Just some rain? I'm not sure he's taking this thing very seriously.

Jagger Sparks Controversy With Comment At Sandy Relief Concert: ‘If It Rains In
London, You’ve Got To Come Help Us’
NEW YORK (CBS New York/AP) – Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger irked some fans
with an attempt at humor during Wednesday night’s 12-12-12 Concert For Sandy
Relief at Madison Square Garden.
During his set with The Stones, Jagger told the crowd that there should be a
benefit show the next time it rains in London.
“This has got to be the largest collection of old English musicians ever
assembled in Madison Square Garden,” Jagger said. “But I’ve got to say, if it
rains in London, you’ve got to come and help us, OK?”
Many fans quickly took to Twitter after hearing the remark to express some shock
as victims of Hurricane Sandy in the tri-state were still reeling from the $70
billion in damages caused by the storm.
“Anyone else think Jagger’s ‘If it rains in London, you guys have to help us’
line was a bit out-of-bounds?” wrote Twitter user @OakParkVandy.
(as i posted immmediately after, not only did i think the remark not out of
bounds, i actually thought it was about the only note of reality in the
whole freakin shebang.)

People offended by his comment need to quit being such pussies.
It was kind of like funnily reminding friend you are bailing of jail, helping move or taking to the airport that "I am helping you here, so when I need help I expect the same".... people tend to forget when it is time.
New York got another bail out ..... and they need to appreciate it, not copmplain like spoiled brats... was there a concert like this for Joplin tonadoes?, Tuscaloosa Tornadoes, North Ridge Earthquake?? No there wasnt...
NY is spoiled rotten from charity shows.... get over yourself NewYawk.

By the way, having listened to Paul MacCartney on the show, while writing, he seems to have real troubles with his voice. Does he have a cold or hoarse? Didn't he sound a little bit hoarse during the Queen's celebrations already?
He sounded the same a couple of weeks ago at the Vancouver show. Great voice, just an older voice, that should avoid certain songs that require too much. He must know that but opts to soldier on.
And he sounded the same in St. Louis before that, and at the Olympic closing ceremony. I think age is finally starting to catch up to him. That's not to say it's bad or he should quit, just that his voice has been so good for 45-50 years, every minor things gets noticed now.

All in all it was a fun night. Very enjoyable. I didn't even know the last 12 songs
If anything it gave you a look at the condition of most of the major players in classic rock. Too bad Zeppelin couldn't be there. I'd love to see this show on tour. Kind of like the old Motown Revue.
I hate to say this but I really think the Stones have allowed themselves to become trapped in this hole of no change. They can't climb out of it. They are locked into this set performance with no deviations. Like a bunch of stubborn old men. Look at all the compliments on how good they sound...at playing the same songs. Satisfaction was great, JJF was the best yet. People, they have been playing them since 1969. Enough said.
You talk about the Stones like they're a vibrant young band that has aspirations and goals to concur the world. They've been on cruise control for 30 years now...not sure why people are still breaking them down like there's still time for them to save themselves or change as a band. These 70 year old dudes came out of semi-retirement for a few shows this year. Some people are asking (and expecting) way too much.

They're hideous Lol, WHAT a stupid comment! These Guys, my/our friends since 1969, are still playing, and why we can't others enjoy the music, if you dont like it, why not?, My elderly advice to you, shut up! If you can't afford it, it's because you aren't earning enough. WE dont care. I'm working my tits off to see a concert next year that's important to me in my life! Your moaning sounds small to me. If you want it here it is, come and get it! You're only ever gonna be what you believe you're gonna be. Right? Don't put your small thinking on us... Ok? Keep it to yourself, be small, don't tell us, we don't care if YOU don't want to go to a show, rather than moan to us about it,how about YOU be better. Learn more Earn more, get on board.... There's plenty $ to go round! If you want to complain, go to the complain thread.... Let the the rest of us enjoy this time, our time , after all, the Rolling Stones won't be here in 10 years, will they?
BV, hey, why not set up a moaners thread so we can be done with this crap! Let's enjoy The Rolling Stones 2012 -> forward
