Thank you BV for your amazing dedication to the Stones and providing the greatest info.
Have a great show!

What time are the Stones taking the stage?

Everyone have a great show later tonight! Unfortunately, I will be in bed sleeping by then since it'll be the middle of the night here one the west coast. I voted for Dead Flowers but would be just as happy with Let It Bleed.

Lose your dreams and you will lose your mind...

8 pm local time

By chance, Google's satellite image captures an earlier stage set up

But what a dull background compared to Hanging Rock!

Sorry but this does not seem to be the Stones' stage, and the view was available a long time ago

Sad that this is one of two Oz shows I can't make it to.
Have a blast everyone and see you in the pit on Tuesday!

GOOD GRIEF! If you hadn't pointed that out I would never, ever, have guessed. (Perhaps the word 'earlier' didn't appear in your browser?)

I wonder why those chairs are there? In Europe you sit on the ground. No chairs. And when time is there you jump up and swing. To me, it seems the chairs are a obstacle in a swinging crowd. Experiences?

(Always took candy from strangers)

Have a great time all those going to the show, and I will be watching it all as it happens on IORR over here in Spain.

My vote went to Let it Bleed, but Dead Flowers would be fine with me too.


Gonna be another great Rolling Stones show. ><

Does seem strange all those plastic chairs.

When I seen The Stones play at outside places like this the only seats were on the sides where they had grandstands.

Everyone else were standing or sitting on the ground.

I think It's less than an hour now ,until they are due on stage.

The Rolling Stones: "The band are on stage at 8pm sharp."

Only 10 minutes left until the greatest band will perform the best ever show! ><
Have a great time!

It's nearly showtime ....

I reckon it will be JJF for starters.

Always a good start to these kind of shows.

4 minutes to go...

Which is the significance with that stage hexagon?

Money, money, money?
Remember the UK has been seated since ... (not counting the 'festivals' last year).
They did their best with lots of concerts during ABB all over Europe.
Gone this summer thanks. Nothing is more fun that hours in a queue with new/old friends trying to grab THAT seat.

Have a good one Down Under! Pissing down in Oslo and we're ready!

How you feeling tonight? Alright everybody! Good evening Hunter Valley!

IT’S ONLY ROCK ‘N’ ROLL (BUT I LIKE IT)

It’s great to be here, it’s great to play somewhere you’ve never been before. Anyone here from Newcastle? How about Sydney? How about Tazzy?…Oh I dunno, I’ve seen the list!

Alright here we go Keith
