I was working on it every time Mick came by, and during Start Me Up he took my sign and tagged me with a strong handshake. And lots of tagging and hugs from friends and fans around me after that. Great show. Thanks Mick!

Funny, I saw that and wondered if it was you! I thought hmm, Mick just shook hands with a Scandanavian looking man, wonder if that is BV...

My "sign" to Mick was simply reaching out and telling him I am the most crazy fan in the house and he appreciated that by tagging me solid.

she hasn't even learned to iron yet. a waste of an otherwise perfectly good woman, it seems.

Thanks for sharing your tour experiences BV.
It gives so many of us who are far away all over the world to get a feel of what it's realy like.
The feel of each city and the atmosphere and vibes in the arenas.
Also all the reviews and pix you put up on the 'Reports' pages.
Very much appreciated.

See my story on the previous page. I don't need a picture. I was there... But there are probably a bunch of photos around, this was first row as seen from the floor at the moment, and everybody was making pictures of Mick then.
So you weren't at the Toronto shows BV? Pity, I was going to ask you what your impressions of the shows were. Thanks for all the work you do by the way!Quote

After the last Stones tour I was in a state of "what's next" for some time. Then out of the blue I decided I had to go to Kilimanjaro before the snow on the top of this great mountain in Africa was gone due to the climate changes. They said it might be gone by 2014 or so. As usual with me, I did detailed research, read all books, checked all routes, and ended up with a great climb making it to the Kilimanjaro summit some five years ago. But it was a pain. Long story short. I started running, biking, training, uphill climbing, and five more climbs to Kilimanjaro later I was a training freak just like I used to be a Stones live show world travel freak for the past 40+ years.
For the past 2-3 years I have been hearing about bookings and plans for more shows. I closed my eyes and ears and said to myself what happens happens. The Stones are to me like "good heroin". I need it, it has no side effects except economomical and family wise, and the upside is great shows and satisfacton for lifetime. So when the October 15, 2013 announcement was a fact, my family as well as myself weas well prepared. And by the low number of dates, I was sure I could keep double life which means both Stones shows and more uphill climbs and half marathon running, biking and so on.
It is impossible to be great at two things at the same time. It is said before, and I am the proof of the pudding. My results in running are stinking. I went home to do a half-marathoin between Chicago and Boston on Saturday, part of the famous Birken triple in Norway. I have never had more pain. Not to be recommended. But I did finish, and on Sunday I was on a flight back to Montreal, landing 6pm, inside the Centre Bell 7:50pm, show start one hour later.
Now I am just glad I did get that Birken race worked out. I am in Boston. I love Boston. Like I love America. Friendly people who care about each others, including stragers like me. I found a great joint here in Boston - more about that in the Boston thread. Now I have to hit the treadmill in order to get in shape. And tomorrow... dream setlist!
