hehe - that's exactly what I should do!
Wasn't looking too good, but I was feeling real well.
Guaranteed not, trust me. We bought one of the packages that included dinner, etc. before the show and while there we got to listen to the sound check. They rehearsed 'Dead Flowers' so they knew well beforehand which "most voted" song they were going to play Saturday night.
Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind...
Yep, you nailed it, ironbelly. I was purposely watching Keith very closely for a reaction to Gaga and he did not disappoint. Did you by chance catch where Keith and Charlie exchanged glances after watching her and both were just cracking up? I thought maybe they were looking at her shoes, if that's what you want to call them, while she was dancing and jumping around the stage??? She is truly an oddball but I think she did a great job with Mick and GS, the crowd loved her and she seemed to enjoy herself immensely even after her song spot was long over. Go easy on her, folks, Mick usually knows what he's doing!

flacnvinyl, were you actually at the show? Let me tell you, I was there and the guitars were very high in the mix, the sound was killer and the Stones brought the house down. I came home sick but yesterday I finally watched the PPV that I recorded and it almost sounded like a differend show. I was really disappointed by the way they mixed the show, the first couple of songs were way off and then after GS it got a little bit better but still nothing like it was live. It's a real shame, as much as most of you all loved the PPV if only the sound mix could have been as good as the live show you would have been blown out of your socks!
Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind...
Yeah, this number was amazing live, and sounds great on the PPV. Sound is considerably muddier on other tracks.
Just curious Ross, how did you manage to record it on your DVR? We tried and it was blocked, so recorded it on DVD instead.
I have AT&T Uverse (which usually sux) and I fully expected the recording feature to be blocked. I was quite surprised when I hit the record button and it actually recorded! I guess it just depends on the cable provider. I have certainly gotten more than my $50 worth!

Maybe those are anti-warhorse Stones fans and that is the opening salvo of the end of the show!?

Me too. You can kind of tell, as he asks Pierre for his guitar. Very nice to see. Wish I was there for it. It sounded loud.

Check Keith pose and the look he gave to Lady Gaga at the end of the song. Somwhere around 6.45 and onwards
It seems he is thinking "Who the @#$% is this and what I am doing here?"

Get Off Of My Cloud - Fun track. A little rough but Ronnie was playing beautifully. Guitars too low in the mix.
The Last Time - WEAK. LAME. This is one of my all time favorite Stones songs. The version in 97/98 was FANTASTIC. This was more like the original and had that jazzy/Ringo beat instead of the train-going-down-the-tracks pacing of the 97/98 version
It's Only Rock 'n' Roll - Just fine. Good warmup song.
Paint It Black - Great version.
Gimme Shelter (with Lady Gaga) - All about the vocals. Gaga did just fine but looked stupid and detracted from the song. Bad choice but I'm sure it added a few thousand viewers to the PPV.
Wild Horses - Why not Moonlight Mile? As Tears Go By?
Going Down (with Gary Clark Jr. and John Mayer) - Great performance but they should have split this up! Put Mayer in the set on Respectable!! HE NAILED THAT.
Dead Flowers - I'll take it. Let It Bleed or Around and Around would have been far better.
Who Do You Love (with the Black Keys) - This was a wasted opportunity in my opinion. Almost any other song would have worked better, but atleast they did a blues. Did anyone else find it funny that Mick forgot that they played this with Bo Diddley?? And he said he thought it was the first time they had played it live! HA! Senior moment apparently. Probably one of those moments where fans remember it better than the musicians...
Doom and Gloom - Love it! Need more guitars in the mix! Sound guy loves Darryl more than Keef/Ronnie.
One More Shot - The song just isn't any good. Had It With You, Under The Radar, She's So Cold, anything would be better here.
Miss You - Tired of it. So very tired of it.
Honky Tonk Women - Great song, nothing new here tonight.
Before They Make Me Run - FANTASTIC. Keith, best version of this song I have ever heard. Hats off to ya.
Happy - Where is the Keith solo? Just a little lick, nothing serious. Really wanted him to tear this one up.
Midnight Rambler (with Mick Taylor) - HIGHLIGHT OF THE NIGHT. Nuff said.
Start Me Up - They should open up every show with this just to get it out of the way. I can't even begin to count how many times I hear someone in the audience say "here we go" when Keith hits the opening riff. As if the show hasn't started til they hear that.
Tumbling Dice (with Bruce Springsteen) - Bruce did not add anything to this. Love to see him smile, but he did contribute. The fish dance at the end cracked me up though.
Brown Sugar - Great version, but the guitars are still too dang soft in the mix.
Sympathy For The Devil - The first Keith riff is the highlight. After that I'm bored. I know it remains a favorite for a ton of people, but I wish they'd play something different.
You Can't Always Get What You Want - Ronnie's solo is the only reason I listen to this song. The choir is just fine.
Jumping Jack Flash - Boring.
Satisfaction - Boring.
Seriously guys I LOVE this band, but I'll take the bootlegs of the show on the 13th with Around and Around and Respectable to this whole show. Apparently I can no longer be entertained by the same songs for every single show.
flacnvinyl, were you actually at the show? Let me tell you, I was there and the guitars were very high in the mix, the sound was killer and the Stones brought the house down. I came home sick but yesterday I finally watched the PPV that I recorded and it almost sounded like a differend show. I was really disappointed by the way they mixed the show, the first couple of songs were way off and then after GS it got a little bit better but still nothing like it was live.

I couldn't agree more Thru and Thru, the guitars were absolutely incredible, the live show was electrifying. I have the PPV on DVD and haven't watched it yet, I am a little hesitant now as it seems that it wasn't mixed very well. I'll take a look at it over the weekend.

I heard that often the PPVs are remixed for better sound after the DVDs are officially produced for sale later on.
Is that anyone's experience? Hope so, from a lot of what I'm reading about sound quality thus far.

The sound on the PPV was disappointing as expected. I never expect those things to sound perfect. And why does it always sound like they hired some guy off Craigslist to come in and mix it? It never sounds like it's their OWN guy at the mixing board---the sound is all off during all the wrong places.

Believe me, if you turn on your volume with the ppv/dvd it is absolutely ok (surely you need a good subwoofer).
As I saw it live in the night (germany), I had the volume to low in the first couch row. So on sunday, family was out, I turned realy on, ask the neighbours, and it was all in all a f§$%&&ing great tv concert.
But nothing compares with see them live, so I did in London 2.

The PPV-mix was good, but a bit uneven.
It didn't surprise med that it took a couple of songs to get the soundscape adjusted.
My only complaint would be that the mix was a little light on guitars at times. It was very bass-heavy, though.
Sometimes Mick was very high in the mix, at other times he was barely audible. That is a bit unprofessional, imo.
Overall, it was ok.

DP, for me it was the same, but as I said, high volume and it is ok 
And the bass-heavy imo was fine for me.
Listening Going down really loud is brilliant, the guitars ... wow ... it blows me away ... but surely it never compares with the live feeling and the guitarsound directly in your ear.

I would guess Bob Clearmountain will be involved in the DVD, so the mix on the official release should be just fine! In the meantime, my DVR recording is decent. I ripped it to CD and have breen cranking it in the car, pretty good at high volume! I like being able to actually hear Darryl for a change.

Been catching up with the PPV, and some observations:
Gimme Shelter was just great all round, and Lady GaGa did an excellent job, vocally & visually. Those of you getting sniffy about her attitude & look are just confirmation of the great circle of life, and have forgotten the Stones' origins.
Doom & Gloom. Not bad, but I think Mick's vocals suffered from him playing the guitar. Forgettable.
One More Shot is just completely dire, and has nothing to commend it. Lowlight of show in my opinion.
Rambler is my favourite bit. Still seems under-rehearsed, but exciting to watch. MT clearly enjoying himself immensely. It's Ronnie's generosity which strikes me. MT seemed to take a backseat later on to let Ronnie have a go, yet Ronnie swept him back into it. Lovely to watch!
I was struck at how Honky Tonk sounded like a poor pub band doing a cover. Best left out if it sounds like this.
Miss You (a song I really like) is OK. Darrell's bass solo reminds how much Bill is missed. No criticism, but Bill is a higher level on this song. Shame he didn't do it in London.
Ronnie plays excellently throughout. He & Keith are not overly 'refreshed', and have great focus. Mick seems slightly out of breath sometimes, but who can criticise that? He is still a superb performer.
I can watch until mid January when it auto-deletes from my Sky box. not bad for a tenner methinks. I do hope for a blu-ray release, with pieces from all the shows.

PS the out of tune crowd singer mentioned previously is disappointingly prominent in Miss You!
