electricmud, thank you so much for the pics and the sentiments!!!
That joy among the band members for the venue and each other is wonderful.
That last is really in contrast to some of the shows in 2013. While they were good, the
comaraderie was absent, especially between Mick and Keith. With their warmth toward each
other, the whole band is more playful, especially in the beautiful setting of the Waldbühne.

Again, I think Keith can still be ok. And screw ups are a part of it. I don't mind. I just thought he was poor yesterday. He started concentrated on the 50 & Counting tour, I just hope that doesn't diminish any further and let the posing take over.
Are you going to a Rolling Stones show and think, that Keith plays every note right? They are The Rolling Stones, I await a show full of energy when I see them live. AND I was never disappointed in one of their shows. Maybe the setlist can be other?
Errr....no.
If I would want that I wouldn't be travelling Europe and spending thousands of euros and a lot of time on 7 shows. Because I know that's not what a stones show is about.
I want Keith to play his guitar like mick jagger sings and charlie drums....like a pro. The time his talent, natural gift did nearly everything are over. He needs to be concentrated. And jesus, come on, I'm just saying he played a poor show. And to me that was because of his lack of concentration. The entire band is focused to catch him, cover him up... The least he can do is try his best, which was not what he did yesterday. But he did that at the other two shows I saw this tour (Oslo and defintely Pinkpop).
It seems as though you have no compassion at all. Just "concentrate"?? Seriously, with hands like this;
Gee, do you think they might be a bit painful, some days more than others?? Give the guy a break.

When I saw them in Toronto, there was no camaraderie between them, it was quite noticeable. Good to see the icy relationship has thawed.

Nice angle on Keith. All of a sudden he looked 20 years younger

Doesn't anyone else think that Lisa should stop teasing Keith in the middle of the solo? It's beyond my comprehention why they allow such a clownish approach to this very dramatic song. It sounds very anticlimatic, and that's excactly the opposite of what the song should be (in my opinion, it should reach its climax in the outro, with the repetition of that strong, superb and majestic riff. Instead of that, nowadays they are often playing some pointless noodling, which is a shame. I hope in Paris we'll get a better rendition of this number. Last year in Hyde Park 1 was the highlight of the show).
completely agree. they've diminished the song with the histrionic, cartoonish way its been done recently..
Are you for real??? You're entitled to your opinion no matter how wrong it is. But, it seems that you think you are better and know more than the Stones do. And they have lasted 50+ years how??

DoomandGloomI can't imagine many of you know this but Keith practices guitar often. In Jamaica where I stayed in a nearby hut he set aside 2 or 3 hours in the afternoon just to play to tapes and stay sharp on his playing. Now that he's being crippled by arthritis I doubt he gets that much guitar time. My point is despite his public image Keith has always tried to be a dedicated musician. Things like SMU happen at the beginning of the show as his hands must feel numb when he's starting out. Still I'm certain he stretches out and does what he can to prepare because that's what he would do. It's really ugly to read some of these comments.Quote

Judging from the Berlin-videos, Keith has improved a lot on this tour already.
I like what he did on Waiting On A Friend and Rocks Off. Keith is really getting there, working like a trooper in very difficult circumstances

Here's last night's "Midnight Rambler" from Berlin. At 8:40 you will see something really sexy. A beautiful fräulein with 3 beers in each hand walking down the aisle. Ahhh beautiful

This is the bus from Sebastian Krüger, a german artist:
