Wow, ER would have been terrific !

Great setlist- only five warhorses?

In the end, I get a slight feeling nobody really gives a flying fvck about a club gig anymore...and I have the feeling nobody really seems to be that interested in a new Stones tour....

Mathijs

Are you feeling O.K. Mathijs?

This is one of the best pre-Stones tour feelings, amongst fans and press I can remember.

It's gonna be a great Tour this summer and maybe even longer.

You're getting to be ''A grumpy old/middle/young aged man''............no offence.

But you are.

Some people will complain no matter what they do. They can sell front row tickets for ten bucks at Madison Square Garden, play every song in their catalog and somebody will complain because they got a stale pretzel from a street vendor outside the arena.

was the Echoplex building formerly a Mexican restaurant called Nayarit?...

The Echo was. It's connected to the Echoplex, a much larger club downstairs. I think that club used to be a bowling alley.

thanks... the Mexican restaurant / bowling alley aspect makes it an even better thing.

Celebrate 50 years with a few shows,great! Now it's starting to look laughable!

I don't think they're in the right condish' to do a full tour. so its either this or nothing.

The Daily Mail up to their old tricks again. Hope I'm still in as good shape as Mick when I'm nearly 70.



They used to say rock’n’roll keeps you young. Not any more, apparently.

After barely ageing a day in half a century of touring, it seems Sir Mick Jagger is finally feeling his years.

The 69-year-old looked exhausted after his latest gig with The Rolling Stones as the band prepare for the latest leg of their world tour.

Leaving the stage with his entourage, he appeared haggard and drawn with sunken cheeks and a dazed look in his eyes.

Despite his carefully dyed hair and casual apparel, the singer’s true age was betrayed by the lines in his face and neck.

Sir Mick and his band mates gave a surprise 90-minute concert at a small club in Los Angeles on Saturday (27) ahead of their first US stadium appearance on Friday.

The 14-song set was watched by Hollywood star Johnny Depp and actress Amanda Heard, as well as fellow celebrities Owen Wilson and Bruce Willis.

It ended with rousing renditions of the band’s classic hits Brown Sugar and Jumpin’ Jack Flash.

But it appears the energetic routine took it out of the band’s lead singer. Sir Mick is normally used to putting other men his age to shame.

A yoga-fanatic, he exercises regularly with a personal trainer and runs up to eight miles in every training session.


He also tries to fend off the years by going to bed at 11pm every night, using a range of expensive facial creams and drinking special wheatgrass smoothies

The star weighs just 10stone and still fits in the 28in jeans he wore as a youngster.

While on tour, he cuts back on his exercise regime but warms up on a treadmill before going onstage.

In a recent interview, he said: ‘I think I’ve been lucky with my genes, but I carefully look after my body and mind.’

Describing his technique for unwinding post-performance, he said: ‘It’s too debilitating to drink a lot, so I use other relaxation techniques,’ he says. ‘I sit on my own, calm down, take stock.’

One of the filthiest articles I've read in decades. What a groundbreaking and important story!

Unfortunately within all the great reviews,storys and pics of The Stones,there is gonna be one.
They will talk a load of garbage and find the worst pic of Mick on the night, they can find.

Depp and O.Wilson were in as well ??

Wow, there was enough in that concert room to fix starvation in the world for 2 centuries..

LOS ANGELES does not precede the story so most likely the "writer" was not even present for the show.

How convenient.

Even on that pic Mick looks surprisingly fit for a 70 year old, imo

That's what I thought DP, we should all look that good at almost 70.

Disgusting article.

Los Angeles Times reporter relates trying to score Echoplex tickets:

Dispatches from Rolling Stones ticket mania

By August Brown

"Dollar water! Dollar water! We've been told this is by far the best water here!"

So shouted the two budding capitalists who strolled the thousand-deep line on a residential street in the Miracle Mile district, hawking beverages for those plonked on the lawn in the sudden morning commotion. The line snaked from 6th Street up to the front door of the El Rey Theatre. Inside were tickets to see the biggest band in the world play an Echo Park rock club Saturday night.

Most of L.A. music-land woke up to a social media maelstrom, suggesting that the Rolling Stones had booked a secret show at the Echoplex, and tickets for the show were going on sale for $20 at the El Rey Theatre. By 11 a.m., when this reporter arrived to try his hand at scoring one, the line was around 400 deep and bubbling with flash-mob optimism.

At the very front, some seasoned Stones-watchers had been camped there since the day before. One woman, Nyoro, was in the first dozen spots and certainly earned her place in line - she'd flown from Osaka, Japan, two days ago just based on a rumor that the Stones would play a secret L.A. club show. She was right. "I'm kind of cuckoo for them," she said.

In our spot in the middle of the line around noon the crowd was a mix of Echo Park regulars making up for lost Stones-at-Coachella wishes, KROQ bros and a few hearty middle-aged Stones fans comparing eras of Stones tours (Consensus? The return of Mick Taylor makes this round a must-see). One young fan said that upon hearing the news around 10:30 a.m., he jumped into his car and drove from the far Valley alone in the carpool lane. The risk was worth it.

As noon passed with no word of the plan - how many tickets were open, who would get them, were they now $40? - the rumor mill churned. One very polite and very beleaguered young man walked around with a trash bag collecting water bottles and swearing he had no secrets to impart. Finally, a rep walked the line handing out six-digit blue raffle tickets, saying there would be a lottery and that the system would be "very clear" once it got started, but everyone should stay put.

A few folks scampered off to feed the parking meter one last time - they might still be here a while. Overhead, an LAPD chopper turned circles above the crowd. I wondered if Nyoro was having a heart attack up there from the news that her place in line wouldn't matter at all.

Finally, a slow but gathering stream of dejected fans slunk from the front towards 6th Sreet. "Only people with 312 numbers can get in," they said. Our small line-buddy-posse looked down - all our tickets read "311." We held out hope - no word was official yet, and it seemed fishy that a random lottery would have bypassed our whole swath of the street.

Then a megaphone-wielding venue rep confimed the grim news - anybody under a certain number should pack it up and go home. That number began with a 312. Nearly four hours in line and we only had a nice hangover and the beginnings of a sunburn to show for it.

Oh well, the Stones giveth, the Stones taketh away. On the walk back down Wilshire, however the crowd's mood darkened. Some said they spoke with friends who arrived at the last minute at the end of the line - and that seemed to be where most of the winning "312" numbers wound up.

The venue reps on site swore the lottery was entirely random. But after we got back home to sulk, one of our line-waiting-friends called to say he'd gone back, just one last time, just in case he still had a shot. He said the venue, after having sent everyone in line home, was again selling tickets and weren't even checking lottery numbers anymore. He got a ticket and could barely speak from the emotional roller-coaster of it all.

What did we learn from our thwarted day in the Stones line? That secret shows of this caliber are like taking home a date that's way, way out of your league. Don't expect it to happen for you, but if it does, just enjoy it and don't get your hopes up for the future.

They must try to find at least something. typical Daily Mail. But one thing is true. In Stockholm in 2003 when we saw them at the Circus you frankly saw Mick getting worn out after a tremendous two hour show. It was unbelievable how he was sweating. He gave us everything he could offer with his voice and body. Remember clearly when Ronnie came up to him after the final tune of Sympathy to indicate for another encore when Mick nodded NO. I don't blame him.
Today 10 years older he must pace himself very thoroughly to get through the shows like last year in London or Eastcoast US.
Hats off to this MAN

Agreed. I was in the pit last Autumn. Even when he's not the center of attention (say, Keith is doing a solo), he's fully into the song, like shouting without the mic and outside the camera's focus, and the energy gauge is still at 100%.

You do not need seven years of education on the human mind in understanding that the Daily Mail journalist Alasdair Glennie is simply envying Mick's lifestyle. Also I see a sign of fedar of age. Alasdair Glennie may be young and beautiful, but by 69 or mno most of us will have wrinkles. But Alasdair Glennie is a journalist, and this was a concert. Music was played. I do not se one single word in the report about the actual show and the music.

Tired after the show? Sure. Any performer, football, music, anything high performance, being 19 years old or 69, should be tired and exhausted after a performance, mentally and physically.

I don't see the point in this report. What is Alasdair Glennie trying to tell us? Is age bad? Should the Stones wrap it up? Did the Multiplex crowd got fooled? Did we see an old man performing, while we expected Justin Beaber? Was it all fake?

I started uphill running some five years ago. We run uphill 4-8 km i.e. 2,5 - 5 miles or more on steep large mountains with 25% or more ascent. I am not that fast, but I have learned something. Age do matter, but not dramatically. When I started age 54 or so guys age 80+ were faster than me. Now after 5 years of hard work I am faster than them but Alasdair Glennie would have been parked in the first hillside. So what is most beautiful - a fast strong wrinkle or a yip yap who hate people on trade mills?

It's the Daily Mail. They're horrible to everybody.

Actually, facially, Jagger does look his age.

Sir Michael could benefit though from doing less bodywork. A rock and roll concert isn't necessarily a gym pass. His voice would benefit from it also.
And in many ways I find some of his aerobics overelaborated or even constraint. Move with the band rather than ahead of the band!

Hillbilly crap. A drunk journalist to tell his opinion. The usual journalist stupidity - he probably didn't get a free ticket and then he feels free to write his crap, putting down people that don't fall flat in front of their feet. Journalist think they are heaven on earth, but in basic just some drunk shitty people ruining other people life.

He was in U.K. somewhere.
Nothing about the show in the article.
Just a daft article and pic to fill up some space on the entertainment pages.
Fairly typical of The Mail.
