They were surely the majority.
Which is why I'm dreading Hyde Park. As a first timer myself, I reckon all those who've seen them countless times (like f***ing everyone on this site) will only affect the atmosphere negatively.
I think tonight will end up being the best crowd the Stones will see on this tour.
Don't worry hyde park will be iconic, the stones are there.

It's got to be said that those photos of the Rolling Stones in that review are utterly superb.
We're not playing cops & robbers here, It's called, "Winning Ugly" So I got want I needed. Sometimes, a guy can get what he needs, without trying. Peace, enjoy the rest of the tour.Quote

I have No Expectations stones fan, but I'm sure those shows were some of the greatest ever.
You asked for the review. Don't be bitter cuz you got what you asked for! :-))
But I didn't get what I asked for, you said you didn't have time. So now I'm out of time. Go fight with your neighbors kids.
Wow if that isn't an I'm going home and taking my ball with me cop out! You can't always get what you want but if you try sometimes you get what you need!

People have been saying here what a great show Bruce Sprinsteen puts on these days with lots of heart that beats the Stones Las Vegas style static setlist ....
Stones at Glastonbury 2013 beats any show Bruce has ever done plus I have no use for his music anyway. Beats anything Bono-U2 have ever done. No one can top this one. The only equivalent I see are the shows they did 1972-73 with Mick Taylor. Can't wait for the boot (or what have you) to come out

Believe me, there's nothing to dread - quite the opposite.

U2 is a great live band.
Springsteen too.
Love both of them to death.
One thing is for sure, the young people in the audience must be shell-shocked.
They witnessed a combo of power and energy that is other worldly.
Shock and Awe baby!

No photo of the final bow with Keith? I must say, the European crowd is different from those in the USA....there are some strange comments here. They really do think American audiences are less enthusiastic?? That's because they've never seen the Stones on American turf!! Why only 20 songs, I wonder? I can't wait to get the boot of this show so Ican hear it all the way through.

american stones fans are incredible. i say that as one :-)
however, a bunch of the people at the US shows on this tour were just there because they got free tickets from their employer or business partner and they wanted to say they'd seen the rolling stones.
i don't doubt that the crowd was incredibly at glastonbury and i don't take the comments vs the american fans as a reflection on the quality of american stones fans, but rather the audience that the stones chose to have on their tour via the ticket pricing scheme.
hopefully the stones will see that it's better to have their audience full of fans of their music

As the american shows prove, a crappy audience = crappy show, thank G-d for the Glasto Crowd, what a show!

This is such a fantastic photo, it deserves to be on the front page of this very website.
