It seems to me there would be less complaning about set lists, although people would find something else to complain about, if the War Horses were rotated show to show. To me this band really only has 3 war horses that MUST be played every night for the hard working people - JJF, BS, and Satisfaction. I would rotate the other so-called war horses (HTW, MY, TD, SFTD, SMU) with these new war horses (SFM, Shattered, LSTNT, UMT, CYHMK). I don't understand why a band with 300+ songs acts like it only has 7 or 8 true war horses that must be played every night. This band should have 15 - 20 war horses!

And Keef needs to mix up his two-song set also. I went to three consecutive shows in Boston at three different venues in 2002 (I think), and he never once changed up his set. Hearing Slipping Away on three straight nights in Boston was not very exciting. For this tour Keef, mix it up and give us YDHTMI or We Had It All or The Nearness of You once in a while instead of the same two songs every night! Rotate on that Mick, Chuck, and Keef!

I suggested to make a new set of warhorses before:

Beast Of Burden
Rip This Joint
All Down The Line
Midnight Rambler
Tumbling Dice
Brown Sugar
JJF
Satisfaction

I agree with this. I think that the following songs are familiar enough to the general public (at least in the United States) that they could be seamlessly rotated into the set as "warhorse alternatives".

Ruby Tuesday
Let's Spend the Night Together
Under My Thumb
She's a Rainbow
Street Fighting Man
Wild Horses
Angie
Beast of Burden
Waiting on a Friend
Undercover

The thing is that as clever, smart and deserving all of us hard core fans might feel about set lists, it's Mick who's up there and can feel the energy and the reaction from the audience when playing Tumblin Dice vs Sway.

I almost had a heart attack when I saw Sway the first time in Berlin 06, and I think it's fantastic they did that considering the lack of response from the majority o the people there (who incidently are the reason the tours are possible).

So yes, I'd love to pay half of what I own for a recidential at Webster Hall in new York and to be able to yell out requests, but that's probably not going to happen :-)

I for one appriciate that they do take chances, don't play what get's the best response, and It's cool that Mick is listening to Chick who seems to be the one who keeps pushing for Mick to be more adventuorus.

Chick???

Do you mean L'Wren?

Or is this Chuck's new petname?

listen to the crowd reaction when they start off CYHMK at Chicago 2, people go nuts! way more than the reaction for the warhorses.
