just watched the Start me up video.

what a lame audience. everyone on tranquilizers or what.

A case where the video is different from the experience. From where I was sitting the audience reaction was very enthusiastic. Guess ya had to be there....

Lovely pictures, swiss. So glad you had a great time at your first show.

As for judging a show - well, if the only available video gets taken on a low-fi smartphone, from a spot in the arena that has bad sound and a bunch of quiet fans, then lo and behold, it was a lousy performance, you couldn't hear the guitars and the crowd might as well have been those plastic mannequins from the picture a few pages back. If you say you were there and it wasn't like that where YOU were, then you must be wrong, because there's the video to prove it!

Couldn`t agree more. Wish I had been there. But you might be totally wrong Chris. There are several experts on this board who can judge a Stones performance by looking at some YouTube videos. And because they are the experts, you must be wrong, even if you were there to experience the atmosphere and the sound in the venue. Yeah, just like Green Lady says, the video proves you wrong LOL.
I am glad you had a great time, just like all the others who were there.

i can judge a performance just by licking my finger and sticking it in the air.

Another ADTL - different sound. No intro, unfortunately.

It was a fantastic smokin' hot show.
Lots of different people, ages, attended.
Packed and enthusiastic crowd!
I went and had a GREAT time!

They were extra good IMO...absolutely fired up!!!

So glad I went!

Green lady - great video - I have similar seats to the June 21 Philly show. What section were you in plus row and seat. It is hard to tell as to where the speakers were located. If you looked up where the speakers right on top of you or were they more behide you.

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!

Not sure you'd ever found a video of that great moment but one just appeared in the camera recommendations topic : [youtu.be] at 2'11" !
