L5S. Way cool indeed
Please! Any criticism at all might discourage the band from carrying on and therefore alone is reason enough for a ban!
It has become common sense here that we have to feel happy and be grateful that they are still around and doing it - just for us. Join the chorus, repeat it over and over - or leave.
Yep
I've always believed Mick doesn't give the audience enough credit. Contrary to a popular myth that lives on this site, an audience doesn't need to know every song at a show. If somebody bought Sticky Fingers, they don't listen just to Brown Sugar and Wild Horses. They know the songs.
It's a remarkable review, since that newspaper, "La Repubblica", usually issues bad reviews of Stones' gigs.
For instance, they rated very badly the concert in Milan 2003, and in response they got many e-mails complaining about that (also from me).
It seems that this time they chose a more competent journalist to review the concert.

The Band is rocking and sounding very very good, they are On Fire indeed !!!
Jeroen
I think that the answer is August 23rd , 2007 .
If they dont know the band's catalogue by now (and no, I'm not expecting them to have an anally retentive insight into it), its their problem. Not ours. Nor the band's. Rolling Stones CDs cost about 5-10% the cost of a Rolling Stones concert ticket. The band really shouldnt have to be held musically hostage to people who have more money than musical taste, and IMO fans really shouldnt feel the need to make excuses for them. For every other major act on the planet, a concert experience is a two-way street. Not just a case of "play what we know" but also "know what we play". I dont see why the Stones have to be the exception. They certainly didnt use to be. If someone buys and enjoys '40 Licks', isnt the next logical step that they then buy other albums? The Stones deserve better audiences than what they're targetting.
I dont get the 'business wise' comment. Its not as if people are going to be so disgruntled that they'll ask for their money back because they didnt hear "Miss You". Who knows, they might actually enjoy these other songs? Surely promoting them is a GOOD business move?

Setlist arguments aside: I hope you had a great time in Oslo and at the concert. All of you who went there. Remember, soon there won't be any setlists to bitch about! Imagine a world without a Stones tour to look forward to...

Remember a few days ago when Erik Snow, tongue in cheek, declared rock music was "childish"?
According to a certain member of the Rolling Stones who knows Erik, "Blimey,
the kid was on fire in the audience dancing his ass off."

, Keith let us down me thinks. Everyone else was playing their rear-ends off, Keith had been beffudled by the local goodies, and it unfortunately showed.
HTW, although "totally messed up" wouldn't be accurate, imo. And, to me it looked like Mick and Keith smiled to eachother after the solo
Apart from the can't be seen mess up - was there actually evidence that keith was "befuddled by local goodies" he looked as if he was concentrating pretty hard in the clips I saw

With a setlist down to only 17 (Mick lead vocals) + 2 (Keith lead vocals) songs, it has become extremely difficult for any *real* surprises to surface during a show. You have the warhorses, you have the "semi-warhorses" (Street Fighting Man, All Down The Line, Bitch, Live With Me, Dead Flowers, Wild Horses,Ruby Tuesday, Beast Of Burden, Worried About You, Angie and the like = you name 'em!), and then you have the third category, the "real surprises" - extremely rare or looooong ago performed songs or even live debuts. In this category, only "Emotional Rescue" -out of all obscure songs!- managed its way to a quite regular setlist entry, whereas Lady Jane, Around And Around, Under The Boardwalk, Silver Train remained one-timers so far.
Most likely, it will remain this way. They may rehearse the most interesting stuff like "Time Waits For No One" with Taylor, but sometimes I think that they rehearse stuff like this just for them, for their own enjoyment, to prevent boredom which inevitably sets in when you're rehearsing 15 times Sympathy For The Devil in a row to a pre-recorded percussion track or JJF, Satisfaction, Honky Tonk Women all the time, or, even mean-spirited, do this just to keep their long-time followers interested! They are obviously aware that their rehearsal songs are reported on message boards like this one. This would of course mean that they consciously play with our expectations to create a "good vibe" amongst their fanbase. And just when expectations are beginning to sink, they throw in "Silver Train" and let Taylor play a bit more!
But only if they play multiple shows in certain cities, see Tokyo.
Just have a look and check how many times they'll multiple shows in certain locations on this European tour and you know what you can expect...
But, of course, we have to feel happy and be grateful that they are still around and doing it - just for us.

So you seriously think that it should be forbidden to have an opinion about the setlist? I will see them in Stockholm, but I can´t deny that it would be nice to see some more "obscure" songs in the set.
No, its not forbidden. but Savages remarks are...............
anyway, i think there wont be any more obscure songs in the setlist for a long time. except for Stockholm, cause i will be attending !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahahaha

Just back in Epsom from Oslo.
Been going through the pages since I left this morning and had a last walk around beautiful Oslo with the sun shining.
Loved your review DP and agree with all you say about the performance, but being a musician, you have told me why some songs weren't quite right, but still realy good to listen and see.
Worried about You ,it felt that Mick put so much into that song and it was a long version.
There were a few songs that were longer than usual which was great, but was still a two hour 20 minute show.
I don't mind that one little bit.
Was sitting alongside ChrisEganstar on flight home and of course only topic of conversation The Rolling Stones.
So good to see DP, Bjornulf, Eric, a few other fans from UK, and more new friends from all over Europe.
The whole Oslo experience for the first Stones gig of the European Tour has been a pleasure and a fantastic experience for me .
