This review is worth reading,in all honesty l did not think much of this tour,except as a cash cow for the band, one perhaps last attempt to grab lots of cash from the faithful

Ronnie cant play Taylors solo. He fumbles. He has no idea where to go with the solo. He has to practice more and come up with something of his own I think. Or they could just let Taylor play with them again on these numbers.

He didn't try, either. I like his approach: theme, wailing, riff, theme, wailing, riff. It worked lovely after Denson's solo. And it didn't drag out for too long.
Actually, there is a structure there, if you listen and don't expect note for note from the studio version or a stretched out Taylor-approach.

No theres no structure in his solo except for the parts he tries to copy from Taylors original solo. C'mon dont tell me you cant hear that. Ad lib is something else.

sounds a good show, slightly Vegas'y but ok
Just need a Lead guitarist who can do more than sustain/hammer on/off's..
Being serious though
I just dont get why Wood can sound so invigorating and fresh exciting with for eg Taylor just before this tour, yet sound half the player with the Stones?
Its like he looses years of playing knowledge/flair/fret nimbleness and ends up fumbling/fudging/dumning down to a more workman like lead, he plays within himself compared to the recent Woods/Taylor gig(s) where he played with more verve/skill/quality
