There are no turkey emoticons, or eating emoticons so a toast will just have to do!
I couldn't find a turkey for you--will a dancing chicken do?
Turkey....thanksgiving...now??? But it's Colombus Day on Monday...except, of course, if you are Canadian.
Happy Thanksgiving, treaclefingers and to all the other maple leaves who float around IORR!

So, the 'bonus footage' you're paying extra for is (probably edited) songs from the 1969 show which have been released multiple times before, the most recently being about 3-4 years ago?
Marvellous.
You have to hand it to the Stones' marketing department, in fairness. Any other band's representatives would baulk at a move like that. Not content with chopping songs off the non-Japanese deluxe editions for no logcal reason, they're actually confident that there's a sizeable enough section of their fanbase who'll go that extra mile to pay over the odds for an item they've bought a few times before if its called 'extra' or 'bonus' footage.
They clearly know their audience.

Gazza - what are you talking about? The 1969 Hyde Park show songs have been released before? As they are from Hyde Park?
Officially or booted?

It's not a "50 Counting" video, it's a Hyde Park video.

if you mean the japanese bonus tracks. this is not a rolling stones.com thing, this is because of the reason that japanese cds are more expensive than the imports from the usa to japan. so the japanese market gets the bonus tracks to0 give a reason for buying tha japanese cd.... whatever you wanna call, they are called bonus because they are a bonus for this version....

I understand & appreciate your comment. However, if it's only a Hyde Park video then it's only a marketing scheme to make Stones fans relate to the Hyde Park concert from the 60s.

No, I mean it's a video of the 2013 Hyde Park show(s). Obviously there are references to the 1969 show, but that's not the main focus of the film, and neither is the 50-year anniversary or the recent tour. They're not claiming it's a DVD to tie in with the 50 and Counting tour, just that it's a DVD (and blu-ray, and CDs, and vinyl, etc.) of the 2 Hyde Park shows.

Ok- view well taken. I've only seen snippets of the show via Palladium (American Music TV). Why not just capture the best of all shows from the entire tour. They filmed (I think) from every show on subject tour. It's more marketable, and would really favor our interests. I mean if only you are any other were at the concert, then it only serves the attendees of that particular concert itself.
Why not please the Stones fans whom attended concerts from L.A. to D.C.?

What I saw on BBC yesterday was just about the blandest Stones gig I have ever seen. This was run of the mill latter day Stones, without any excitement, passion or energy. I really don't understand why we would need the umpteeth mediocre version of Start Me Up, of IORR.
I was surprised about Glastonbury, I really thought that was good. But Hyde Park might be the lamest Stones gig ever.
And I have the deep suspicion much of Jagger's vocals where overdubbed.

I'd love to know why they didn't play CYHMK on at least one of the Hyde Park gigs.Quote

SMU, IORR, RT (obviously), HTW from the 13th, might be some sprinkling of the 6th in IORR, dunno.

Oh that's right,according to Jagger, the crowd doesn't want to hear too many (supposedly)obscure songs.
Yeah,that'd be the same crowd singing every word of "You Got The Silver"!

Poor Keith. Now he can only stroll through a solo. He needs to slow down and play the blues, and cut it out with the up tempo numbers. And the Rolling Stones are a guitar based band, right? Then why is the damn piano player up so high in the mix, plinkety-plinking the same tone on every frickin' song? SFTD and Midnight Rambler are dark songs, not beach ball in the crowd, everybody sing along, come on.
That might well be, but I hate that new SFTD intro. It takes too long for the guitars to start. My fav SFTD is LA 1975.Quote

Ever hear the original version of SFTD? It's a piano song!
