I'd rank the 6 I saw like this:
1. Boston #2 - Finally got to take my daughter to see the Stones and about 5 songs in we got (quite unexpectedly) upgraded to the Tongue pit. So that might qualify as one of the greatest nights of my life. Walking down front as the band is ripping up As the Whip Comes Down...
2. Newark #2. - 1st show of this go 'round so there was that excitement - plus NY/NJ area, plus special guests, plus I thought they totally rocked that night.
3. Boston #1 -Great vibe. Partied with my brother. Superb sound where we sat, plus finally got Sway with MT.
4. Stockholm - right down front. Maybe the best Rambler of the lot. Great show in a gorgeous city.
5. Macau - despite it being on the other side of the world, the show didn't catch fire really until toward the end. Best Gimme shelter of them all, and Brown Sugar was excellent. Disappointed not to get Silver Train though.
6. HyDE Park 1 - after just seeing them up close in Boston, the crowd at this was just too big. I had a hard time reaching 'lift off' during this show for some reason. That said, when I listen to Sweet summer Sun, I'm glad I was there!
