Yes, definitely nice picks to be tossed off the list, I totally agree.

Also...Slipping Away,
and get rid of the Keith solo-set of three consecutive songs...

Let him play one or two (Happy - Little T&A) that are interspersed throught the set.
But the way he has his mini set now, it almost becomes like an intermission.
Time for a piss and a beer, I have to admit it.



By the way, I think HAPPY would be a great opener, with Mick lingering in the background mysteriously.

1-YCAGWYW
2-IORR-------------substitute with Dance Little Sister
3-Satisfaction
4-Happy------------sub with Silver, Coming Down followed by BTMMR or Connection
5-Miss You
6-Gimme Shelter
7-Sympathy

I know it seems like I am gutting the setlist, but they have a gazillion songs. We know JJF, HTW, DICE will always be in the set but it's time to dig deep and do the show for the hardcore fans.

Use Start Me Up sparingly, also Monkey Man (I could listen to that song all day)


Wouldn't mind hearing
1-Too Tough
2-Low Down
3-Bring Back Memory Motel (it's been 10 years since Voodoo)
4-Luxery
5-Short & Curlies
6-Salt of the Earth....not Las Vegas style either

So many songs, so little time.

Milo, NYC
Can't you see the party's over

I could live without
Start me Up
Tumbling Dice
Satisfaction
Honky Tonk Woman


Would love to see
have you seen your Mother Baby?
She Was Hot
Complicated
I don't Know Why
She Said Yeah
Dirty Work
Hearts For sale

1. IORR ( ain't gonna happen)
2. Start Me Up (this one definitely has to go, but...ain't gonna happen)
3. YCAGWYW (same as above)
4. Happy (keep it if Ronnie will stand up and play side.
None of this sitting-down bollocks)
5. Angie (keep it, just don't toss it off
in a minute and a half)
6. SFTD (keep it if they get rid of the taped/Chuck intro)
7. SFM (lose the sitar-guitar)

I don't mind TD (though it sounded better without back up vocals).
I know many want that one gone, too.

The main problem I have the warhorses is they just play 'em too long.
1. HTW: Chuck (or whoever's) extendo solo, and the tacked on extra
choruses.
2. Brown Sugar, How many "Yeah, Yeah, Woo's" to bore a crowd? Seen and
felt it almost every time.
3. YCAGWYW: See above..
4. IORR: same again...
5. JJF: My favorite song in the world, the lyrics are my senior class quote,
actually. But when half a crowd is moving to the exits? Keith in the time that
you pose through that song for 8 minutes plus, we could have "Hang Fire" AND
"Rip This Joint"
Play 'em short, sloppy and sweet, and save some solo time for "Sway" or another
buried treasure.

What is wrong with you people?

I can NOT live without Brown Sugar, Tumbling Dice etc.

HTW
Dead Flowers
Happy
Most 80´s stuff
Beast Of Burden

Angie
YCAGWYW

Jumpin' Jack Flash
Brown Sugar
Satisfaction
Sympathy
Midnight Rambler
Street Fighting Man
Rocks Off
YCAGWYW
Tumbling Dice
Honky Tonk Woman
Happy

I want to hear songs like She's So Cold, She Was Hot, Hang Fire, Let Me Go and new stuff of course


'In the sweet old country...'

Sympathy for the Devil! One of their gems but IMO it should need some rest. Maybe a comeback the 2009-2010 tour?
We have also maybe heard to much of Tumbling Dice and YCAGWYW.
And I hope they skip You Got Me Rockin this time.

But I would not be withour HTW, SMU and BS. They're all classics and musts and works terrific live.

Satisfaction

start me up

would love to hear

moonlight mile

i got the blues

wild horses

salt of the earth

I agree with Michael Mead LV. Most of them are way too long. Brown Sugar on the Voodoo Lounge was nearly 7 minutes.
Same goes for JJF and others.

But I can understand why they play these classics in all the stadiums.
That's why they do stadiums, arenas & clubs.

Kick all the warhorses and stop Keith from singing IF its not background vocals. Change guitars, stop smiling, new material, new background mucisians (they used to change every tour), an nice hair piece for Keith, new clothes for him and for gods sake, no more kicking and "'did guitah is too 'ot"-moves. That's about it.

Tumbling Dice
Miss you
Angie

HTW or IORR

Never scip JJF or MR

Let Keith sing a song together or backup with Mick and let them both have a 20 Min. break for a guest or the Lisa & Bernie.
Or, come to think of it a 20 Min. solo session of Chuckie Boy :-)

If I was putting the set list together I would definately get rid of
street fghtin man
satisfaction [unless they play more like the single I never get fed up with that version]
happy [don't get me wrong I love it, but keith has so many good ones he doesn't play]
and maybe a few of the other ones that never seem to be rested from the set list.
I would like to see them play things like
Off the hook
Jump on top of me baby
She was Hot
Come on
Out of control
Have mercy
pain in my heart
Get off my cloud....etc etc etc
+++++++not forgetting....most of the new album........in fact I would throw away the old set list completely...they have enough back catalogue and with the new album they will have plenty of ammo........Now this would really shock people and is what they need to do.......please don't play it safe Mick.......shock us, I know you still can.

I don't want them to skip any of the well-known numbers, but they shouldn't play them every night. If I attend like five shows I'd be satisfied to hear Honky Tonk Women and Jumpin' Jack Flash twice.

Please do play -
Sway
Time Waits For No One
Highwire

I don't want the War Horses either but with stadiums and atenas at $450 a ticket that is all we will likely get this time.

Satisfaction
Street Fighting Man
Jumpin' Jack Flash
You Can't Always Get What You Want
Honky Tonk Man
Brown Sugar
Tumbling Dice
Start Me Up


The Stones WILL NEVER drop those songs I've listed above. No matter how much we bitch about them, Mick and Co will not ditch them because they want to reach out to the masses. Your always going to get these numbers at the arena and stadium shows. Maybe they'll mix the hits up a little at the theatre's, but that's all.

People want to hear the above songs, so the Stones will continue to play them.

I could live without warhorses, but that's what attracts the mainstream poeple. Perhaps they'll do another theme of albums like they did on the licks tour.
I would love to hear songs from the 73 aera or so and very old songs they used to play when they were very, very little.

I would like them to drop the songs that rely on the backing musicians and do not sound good anymore like..

Tumblin Dice
Miss You
Bitch
Rocks Off

And they could also mix up the warhorses and play different ones each night since they have so many hits to choose from. There are many hits that could be songs they play every night because everyone knows them, yet they fall under this category of hits songs that are rarely played.

19th Nervous Breakdown
Get OFf My Cloud
Heart Of Stone
Mothers Little Helper

All typical end show songs : HTW , Brown Sugar , JJF , Satisfaction and Miss You , YCAGWHYW

I WANT TO HEAR FINGERPRINT FILE AND HIGHWIRE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let it loose

I don't like it that they end each (stadium) show with 4-5 hits following eachother. And they're way too long and filled with horns, solo's and back up singers that can be missed.

Short versions and mixed in the show. And try new arangements. The best example of course is Sympathy. Change it!

I could do without HTW, YCAGWYW and IORR.

Love to hear a 4 minute version of Miss You without the horns and Chuck.

Bring back Just My Imagination BTW!

E.

I'd like to listen to the whole of the new album before I answer on what good old and new songs should not be played.

It would be glorious if the new album material was strong enough to be the centerpiece of the show (a la '78)...that would make this tour truly special. But, alas, the Stones will probably do 2-3 new songs per show as in more recent tours.

IORR - replace it with Around and Around or perhaps a whole Chuck Berry-medley...sounds stupid perhaps, but you never know.....could be great and could perhaps end with the chorus of IORR ( : what a compromise )

YGAGWYW - replace with Salt of the Earth and/or I got the blues

SFM - replace with Parachute Woman

Tumbling Dice - replace with Heart of Stone and/or Dance

All of these replacements would be great for hardcore-fans and the "rest"

HTW, Satisfaction, JJF, SMU, BS cannot be replaced. These five songs make sure that the great majority walk home...satisfied.

GS & SFD ? Well, they don't have to be played every night. Shift with Paint it black, Saint of me, Out of Control.

All this should make room for at least 4 new songs + a couple of oldies.

Oh, I apparently forgot Angie and Wild Horses and the two Keith-songs.....gee, it's not that easy. Let Lady Jane & Ruby Tuesday mix with Angie and WH.

Take it or leave it. Well, they can play that one as well........

I can't add anything esle to the list already here. Just play some more hidden gems for God's sake! Hey TheStones! That's a great pick of Mick! Where if you get it?

the Stones are certainly prisoners of their (and their catalogue's) fame and success. Left completely to their own desires, I'm sure the setlist would be one that any of us hardcore fans would salivate over. But, as Nervous Breakdown above started to attempt - once you get into the details, you realize that there's only so far you can go with it in a 20-song setlist.

Agree! Wouldn´t mind them skipping Satisfaction and Start me up, but would LOVE to hear WINTER!
