That would be awesome.

Probably just switching with BS

Keith on Sympathy tonight

Looks like they swapped jjf for brown sugar... Wonder if Taylor is the reason

Who on Earth wants to hear 'You Got Me Rocking'?

My guess is not a single person. Why do they continue to play it?

Because it's a good song.

Maybe, maybe not but there are dozens and dozens of better choices.

It just seems like they are playing it safe with this setlist

Very safe!

I think the twitter account I'm following messed up the songs as they're apparently playing Jumpin' Jack Flash now...

Satisfaction with Mick Taylor

I too really like You Got Me Rocking. It's like a fine wine that gets better with age. I remember not being too into it when I first heard it. But I love it now. It's a classic Stones tune.

As for Katy Perry, she was ok. Lady Gaga, who writes her own songs and plays piano in addition to singing, was so far the best out of all the pop girls on stage (after Bonnie) and she has ten times more talent than Katy Perry, who sings only. Katy Perry couldn't write a song if her life depended on it.

As for Keith, he seems lazy or something. He didn't seem much into Happy and barely played guitar. He did this song better on other nights this tour.

Beast of Burden? The arrangement was for there to be no guitars during that part where Katy and Mick are singing. Keith didn't just stop playing, Ronnie also did because that was planned.

I'm disappointed that Mick Taylor again was relegated to just one song. Why would Keith say on Jimmy Fallon that he would be playing on more? It sounds like they are just trying to boost Mick Taylor's solo career more than anything and getting him some exposure to audiences. This must be their agreement.

Wow.. Katy Perry tweeted that she gyrated on Jagger. TONS of terrible replies from her followers. Pure comedy.

Something went wrong on BoB...
Did Taylor not play on MR?

IMO - Except for Midnight Rambler- It was just kinda average tonight. I'm disappointed we didn't get Sway or Moonlight Mile. I thought that playing Las Vegas they'd throw in something a little different. Sick of YGMR, MIss You- But the heck - It's the best they can probably muster at this point. Old rare gems must be sounding like train wrecks and that's why we don't get too often in the set lists. I done complaining- I Love these guys!!!

I think it's more to do with playing to your audience, making sure they know the songs. And with a Vegas crowd--which is purely tourist class--you've got to figure that as casual fans go, a Vegas crowd is more casual than most.

It's Vegas - an undemanding crowd of rock 'n' roll tourists. The Stones also did "Beast of Burden," "All Down the Line" and "You Got Me Rocking" during their Vegas visits on the ABB tour. I wonder if Mick remembered that the last time they played Vegas his dad had just died?

I'm going to buy a leopardskin pillbox hat for Keith.

I saw that too... None too subtle either

Hmmm ..... so much for an increased contribution from Mick Taylor ?

I wonder what will unfold over the remaining shows. Come on Glimmers ...... for heavens sake !! Let the man PLAY !!

[ I want to shout, but I can hardly speak ]

Satisfaction W/ Mick Taylor tonight







Show 96 tonight

The sad thing about all this is that Mick can schmooze with the guests but he can't even get near Keith for anything.

Perhaps Keith has it written into his contract that way.
