ABB was one of those tours where it was far more fun to attend than listen back to the gigs. Sound mix varied from competent to horrendous from show to show.

You can say that again. The concert in Hannover 19/6/06 had the audience stunned by the unbelievable volume. Some were physically uncomfortable to the point of puking.
It got better during the show, but listening to the boot brings that scary feeling back: [picosong.com]

This is the kind of volume Stones music is supposed to be played!

Didn't come across any issues on there, but I have to say BeforeTheyMakeMeRun's concert directory is a great thing.
But I wondered why only few good recordings seem to exist of the 2014 tour.

The issue is effort. In years past there was an attitude of 'anything could' happen. Now, after the first show of the tour we know what will happen. Tapers have a very good reason to bring not their gear to the show... half the audience is filming on their phones. Why would I bother to record the gig in pristine audio, when I am the only one who will enjoy it, and I have to sacrifice 'getting into' the gig, and instead just have to listen instead of singing along and partying? Just my two cents ofcourse.

2005-2006 was a very fun tour. I enjoyed all the gigs I attended, especially Louisville and Atlanta. Wonderful gigs. Atlanta the entire band was on fire and it marks one of my favorite Stones gigs that I have seen in person. No soundboard though.

@Munichhilton - Go for it! I have 6th row for Nashville and I know I'll be right under the PA stacks. Whether I bring a portable rig or just hit record on my phone and let it go for 2 hours, I don't know.. but I am heavily considering it. The determining factor for me is really what they do with the setlist. Same stuff again, I'll pass on recording and just enjoy the show.
