I will say though I would have loved to hear Moonlight with MT had they dropped Midnight Rambler that would have sucked because that was THE highlight of the show.

I know they could have had him on for more than one song but not likely to happen. It would kind of be a slap at Ronnie. Everyone knows MT is a better player than Ronnie and maybe it would upset Ronnie. It was MT's decsioin to leave. I would love to see a four or five song slot of:
Midnight Rambler
Moonlight Mile
Time Waits For No ONe
Sway
Can't You Hear Me Knocking?
Reality unfortunately dictates that is not likely to ever happen.

"I don;t want to start the whole Taylor/Wood debate as I think they are too very different types of guitarist. Taylor couldn't stand in for Ron on a Stones tour and play the wide variety of styles necessary. On the other hand Ronnie can't play the fluid lead work which Taylor is renowned for. Although, I think he is a little rusty and needs a bit more road work with the Stones for him to do MR justice in the way he used to. But hey, we all get old!"

I have no doubt that you will hear it in the upcoming shows. It's just too bad they couldn't add 5 songs to the setlist.
I just think they were trying to fit him in and establish a routine. How they want him to play, where to stand, how to interact with Keith and Ronnie, and how to leave Mick alone sometimes. Now that they have "tamed" him somewhat, they can move on to different numbers.
