What's more ludicrous is that claim. Springsteen has guested on that song *twice* yet we've gotten Taylor every single night of the tour except one (if you call all the dates since 2012 one tour).
This picture just makes me happy.
Me too (and speaking of which, I miss Happy, even though it's good to hear some different stuff in Keith's set).
I couldn't believe my eyes, I had to look three times. At the very least, this pic needs some time on the homepage. Brilliant photo.
Wasn't it a hit single in Italy? That sounds like a more plausible reason they'd play it in Rome.
Me too. I'll probably never listen to the studio version again, but this is different. The audience appreciation of it seems to lift the performance, at least in the '06 shows, I haven't heard this one yet.
The only downside to the song is the lyrics, which are in English. The Italians and Spanish may speak fair English, but they seem to be responding to melody and feel. It's a great singalong.
In 1990 I went to France (Strasbourg) with a college buddy, visiting his former host family. They were almost 70, spoke almost no English. Their favorite song in the world was Elton's "Nikita". When we played it on our guitars, they were in tears. I like the song, but they like it on a totally different level. They get the gist of the lyrics "Oh Nikita, you will never know...." Same thing with SOL, I think. Melody and emotion.
Talk about your favorite band.

I'm generally not a whiner about the setlists but I sure would rather hear Loving Cup than Streets of Love.
SOL is in the ballad slot. LC is not a ballad, but I sure would like to hear it live.
I'd settle for something he actually played on -maybe even stretch that to songs they played live with him in the past. Isn't that the point?
The logic behind this particular choice is vacant.
And, frankly, the whole use of Taylor on such minimal options has been a let down.
These people have been playing live music for DECADES. Rehearsing a larger group of songs to display him on - which they could easily change every night to make every show a special occasion - is no hard task (remember: three days between each gig!). Seriously, all Taylor has to do is noodle over the tune in the right key (sometimes a challenge apparently) and people would be passing out with pleasure.
Keep the staples like Rambler and Satisfaction, but they should be changing this up much more frequently than they have been.
It's kind of ludicrous to have had Bruce Springsteen guest on Tumbling Dice more often than Mick Taylor on this world tour.

What's with Keith's set the same every night, for me it's not a show without BTMMR but maybe that's just for us U.S. fans.

They need to drop the song poll thing all together, what's the point really they are going to play whatever they want.

Im back at my hostel in Rome! What a day and night it has been. Im in pain from sunburn though (IT WAS SO HOT!) and sitting on the right side hill (yes hill!) in the same poisition for about ten hours!. What an awesome venue it was though (The Roman forum is to the right of Circus, which makes it even more beautiful). I had a great time and the Stones put on a top show. I cant say much more as its coming up to 2 in the morning.
Best moment was when Mick was coaxing John Mayer up the catwalk during respectable...it made me smile alot!

I was right side almost at the front and center. The best concert I have been, I think better than the previous in 2007.Jagger steals the show but Keith looked so much healthier than he was in 2007.Great night people loved it.

Nothing that special with tonights set
Really?
Streets of Love, while different, is not special. It's a terrible album track that is much better on stage but nothing to get all excited about.
I suspect they just included it tonight because of the Rubicon line, much as they made a point of playing Memory Motel in Boston last year.Quote
StonesCat
They did what I was going to suggest, when the fanvote is rigged, fill the rest with songs that get people excited but will never get played.
They've got a bloody cheek doing this kind of thing. They know full well that a large part of their really hardcore fanbase isn't happy with the dull shows they play and yet they still have the cynicism to outright ask for fans' help with the setlist whilst rigging the vote
Wasn't it a hit single in Italy? That sounds like a more plausible reason they'd play it in Rome.

Kind of a funny thing about Streets of Love in the set list--however, it was a top 20 single in Italy, and it was at an Italian venue where they first played it live (Milan, July 11, 2006).
Are there any gigs in Spain on this Euro tour? Streets of Love was a #1 single there. If they play in Spain, it's sure to appear in the set list again.
Just think about it: Streets of Love was the last Rolling Stones number one single....

In reading the set list posted on page 5, isn't it interesting that the fan vote "request" just so happens to be the one that features their special guest. Suppose fans had chosen Sweet Virginia instead. Then they would have had to have scratched the special guest slot for the show. Uncanny how that always works out.

Did anyone post which song it was where both Keith and Mick are on the mics together, and Keith has his arm around Mick? We want to know!!!
Thanks once again, Cristiano, and everyone.
SOL is better in concert than on the recording, and hey, more Mick Taylor!!!
And that t-shirt with the mouth, Bocca Verita Tongue shirt is fantastic!
~"Love is Strong"~

Yes, few posts above, it was "Let's spend the night together".

Very nice to see rare moment of affection between MJ/KR. Also, so far venues have all looked full so overall a successful tour. As someone who loves Taylor I gave up hoping he would be used more and with different songs after a glimpse of hope at Staples last year. Nothing we do or say will change that or the set list , so we must just accept that the band seems happy and hopefully keeps going ad infinitum .

The last Italian concert setlist:
Jumping Jack Flash
It's Only Rock'n Roll
Oh No Not You Again
Let's Spend The Night Together

Streets Of Love
Con Le Mie Lacrime
Midnight Rambler
Night Time Is The Right Time
--- Introductions
Before They Make Me Run (Keith)
Slipping Away (Keith)

Rough Justice
Under My Thumb
Honky Tonk Women (to main stage)
Sympathy For The Devil
Start Me Up
Brown Sugar

This is concrete,conclusive proof that someone made a deal with the devil.
Mick Taylor returns to perform with the Stones but,plays on "Streets of Love"
and not "Time Waits for No One" , "Heartbreaker" , "Shine a Light" etc. .
I would honestly rather hear him play on "Out of Tears" or "Too Tight" if
he wants to try his hand with modern material.
