Maybe the lift broke or he was afraid of getting stuck and having to be rescued on stage? But seriously, he used that lift to great effect on Sympathy during the SW tour.

Voodoo lounge was a helluva good album and a helluva good tour!
All aspects were great from not too high ticket prices to a long and winding tour with plenty of dates and locations to see them (although, of course, no KC date, again) to a mix of new and old songs. What a great show!! and the whole Voodoo lounge section of the show was spectacular, early on opening with Love is Strong, later in the tour with SFTD. I saw enough tour dates, throughout the tour, on the Voodoo Lounge tour to make me very very happy, unlike these days.

Totally agree, Max!
Did you by any chance catch the KC-shows in 81?

a floor lift and regular elevator are 2 different things, 2 different effects.

Hello,
One of the Wembley dates was the first time I'd ever seen the band. One of my clearest memories of it involves that beginning of the show to which You Got To Roll Me refers. It was Summer, so still light; we could hear the intro music, so we knew the show was imminent; I could hear the drums and so looked to the kit and saw Charlie, my first live glimpse of a Stone; and such was my concentration on him that I didn't even notice the singer sachaying across the stage...he was almost at the mic when I realised: "*#€%*!=* - there's Mick!!!". Absolutely brilliant, I bloody loved every second of it.

No, they didn't ditch it. They changed the point of the show that they used it. They starting using it for Mick's return after Keith's set. Mick reentered the show for the stretch run using it... instead of using it at the very beginning of the show.

I've always been a bit curious.... At the start of the tour, mick would take the lift and shoot right up to start 'Not Fade Away' but about 15-20 shows in, he started walking on stage and taking a bow....Anyone know the reason?

There was a bit of footage (I think promotional, or from a newsnetwork, or maybe a complete bootleg) that showed, from below the stage, Mick preparing and being shot up. I must have seen it on youtube somewhere, but I can't find it anymore. I'll try again later tonight. Or has anyone got a clue?

I think that was from the official VL video, Giants Stadium. I could be confusing it with some backstage footage from the Licks tour though.

Any chance of uploading those tongue logos as a Zip file in the thread in the "Hot Stuff" section ??

It could have been when "Sympathy for the Devil" returned half way through October that year. ?
