A singalong that is very popular among the crowd. Rocks Off is not, even though it's a great song.

One of their biggest hits, with a massive response from the crowd.
The 13 IORR members in the crowd aren't Micks biggest concern.
I actually enjoyed Miss You this tour.

I agree with ChrisFountain. I do believe the Stones picked up a lot of new fans this past tour and the fans are only scratching the surface. MY is a good song, their last number one single, the crown loves it and I think Mick has stated that its one of his favorites so they are not going to drop it. If they play theatres you won't hear it and that is where you will have to catch a show if you want to hear different and who knows if they will ever play a club or theatre again like they did on Licks.

Miss You is a song for the ladies. Not that I don't like it, but the ladies love it. So, not to give something to half your audience would be stupid. I don't care for the way it is played anymore. Not having Bill on bass on Miss You would be like not having Keith on Jumping Jack Flash.
And please, give up on rarities or even semi-rarities like Rocks Off. We're in the home stretch now with the current edition of the Oldies Stones. You'll probably never go to a Stones show again where 95% aren't overplayed warhorses.

In my opinion, this song is ok but nothing special. Every tour they play this overrated song. I just don't understand why this is the case. I've only seen Rocks Off, for example, in only two shows (hit and miss).
How can "Miss You" be a staple whereas "Rocks Off" is omitted or played here or there? Or even "Sweet Virginia"?
If I'm listenig to mainstream radio on the way to work - It's always MY. I've heard this song so much to the point where it gets on my nerves.

I think you answered yourself in bold to your question... The song is so well-known and popular that they don't have 'afford' to not play it...

Grown men were belting out songs on the tube on the way home from HP. They were singing three songs in particular: IORR, SFTD & Miss You...

Should I give up on "Luxury"? This is the most overlooked song by every Stones Fan. It has everything one desires! Great opening riff, lyrics, and is really the cornerstone of the album itself (IORR).
