" Where are all the photos from the 78 US Tour? "
Mostly in people's drawers having been rendered on Kodak Instamatics. The Stones were not at their photogenic best and the tour was sort of thrown together, presumably without the usual propagandists in tow.

78 , in some ways, still is a very mysterious tour...Saw them in Oakland and it was absolutely great as it was MJ birthday. I think the Doobies played as well. Almost all "Some Girls" and some people kept shouting for the "war horses" even back then!!! Agree, it was really the last true Stones tour in terms of MJ/KR and the sound...Bill was also fantastic this tour imo.

Keith 'takes off' in Oakland - July 1978 - One of my favorites

That is exactly the vibe I was asking for.

Yes..that's 3 they didn't do...or did they play "Lies" along the way?
Is it official they didn't play "Some Girls" and
Before They Make Me Run"?...and was "Lies " played?
Didn't Keith play "Before They Make Me Run" on the New Barbarians Tour in 1979?

The tour is rather mysterious. You can't take it out of its context. Keith was still facing big prison time in Canada and looked like death at the Cleveland show I was at. There was a strange vibe. Ramshackle is indeed a good word for this tour. And those festival seating outdoor shows were always dangerous. This was the last tour where they famously didn't do an encore. I felt like I caught the last whiff of that 60s mania. It got real Jovan after that.
