You can't read?

yes slots 6,8, and 10 are all available for wild horses.

they could play
4. sway
5. dead flowers
6. wild horses
7. dead flowers
8. wild horses
9. CYHMK
10. wildhorses

he's saying as possibilities for each show like mix it up abit

I don't care if they play WILD HORSES all night long by the way.

they would definitely need mick taylor back if they were going to do that. while his noodling is a bit much on a 4 minute song, on a 2 hour long wild horses it would be essential.

None would be best. I'm sure Jagger could change his shirt or jacket (or both) without Keith having to belt out two numbers. Which, by the way, is more and more becoming just a boring routine.
They could cut out the band introduction as well. It's just time consuming. And I guess we know their names by now...

The Jagger lead vocal songs are becoming just a boring routine. "Tumbling Dice" with spoken lyrics instead of actual singing. I can hardly believe that people are so enthusiastic about hearing a pre-programmed beat that they can't put up with some real music for ten minutes.

Just can't wait to hear 60,000 drunk people singing "whoo - whoo" and "hey-hey you got me rocking" for the 100th time.

OK so the response has been pretty resoundingly in favor of moving to 3 Keith songs. I will be communicating this to AEG tomorrow morning and we'll see if we can make it happen in time for the Minneapolis show. Keith and Mick are both going to be really excited. I will give them the idea to do one of the 3 songs with Mick on stage and them singing together (e.g. Connection, Happy, etc)

Coming Down Again would be awesome.

Keith would do three Keith songs. I like his songs but I'd rather see/hear the Stones do a cover. Bring out the Chuck Berry tunes, or blues tunes.

that's a great idea too. so many great chuck berry tunes they could do. it would harken back to their classic tours of the past, wouldn't be hard for them to re-learn, and would give a good tip of the hat to chuck.

No chance..... That's something that most real fans would love to hear, and as we know, they don't play for their real fans.

Honestly though, I was hoping for the longest time that Keith would mix things up. He does such a stellar job when he takes chances...





Keith has the perfect opportunity in his set to play anything he wants. Heck I was really hoping at San Diego that he might pull out a Jerry Lee Lewis song! Yesterday I was listening to Hail Hail Rockroll.. One of my all time favorites. I could listen to Keith's solos and riffs all day long.

Unfortunately, the complacency of Mick and Keith means we are very unlikely to hear anything adventurous. To that effect, we are unlikely to see anything 'normal' either! This is a Stones oldies act. All your favorite FM hits, performed every night. On most tours the Stones would cover a blues tune, soul tune, whatever.. Now, we don't even get that.

Keith could take chances even if Mick doesn't want to. The problem for all of us, is that WE are the only wants wanting them to take chances. Seriously, thats the problem.

The Rolling Stones are perfectly happy playing the same setlist to everyone. We'll never see another No Security tour, or anything close to the themed setlists of Licks.

That's what she said.

Why don't we just start with him singing one song well, and move the bar when we get through that hurdle?

Which one do you mean, Mick or Keith? Surely you don't mean both, that would be a very short show. Unless you're getting on board with the proposal that they play wild horses all night long....

Two songs is more than enough,anymore and we're all be asleep

I am changing my statement to;
I humbly disagree.
After spending 15 hours at various bars I was in a rather interesting mood.
Take care, people.

BLASHPHAMY.

I love hearing Keith sing.

He's probably the most badass guy that ever lived.
I know Mick is on the same level and Ronnie and the boys are close, but the guy is an enigma.

I can't say more, but the @#$%& rolling stones are rock stars, of the biggest kind.

Don't hate the game, or the players, unless you want to.

Keith is a badass and anytime I get to see him or the guys and gal play, it is a blessing and I hope I don't have to travel to Europe to see them the next year, but I have to, I will,.

Very well put! I was absolutely blown away at the San Diego show! I thought he was in incredible form, and loved hearing Slipping Away. I love that Keith really enjoys doing the shows, and he's just as amazing as he's ever been (maybe even more so, considering that travelling is even harder on him now at 71)

It is quite true about Keith being a badass, and I mean that in the most loving way! If you want the definition of 'badass' or 'rockstar', you will find only 2 words; Keith Richards. Period. I might even add Bobby Keys to the badass def cos he definitely was.

Look man, don't be calling me Shirley.

I certainly enjoyed his 3 song greatest hits set in Sydney last year - Silver , Happy and Run. All killer and no filler!

Why does he do 3 songs like the 2 times its happened? Is there any rhyme or reason to it?

With the Australia gigs I think Mick was having some vocal issues and I remember our discussing it at that time...Mick giving his voice a bit of an extra break.

Keith should stick on 2 and a bit later give one to Ronnie (IORR?)

Imagine the situation that both of us are right here. Where does that leave us? With both the warhorses and Keith's set gone. A Stones setlist consisting of 3-4 songs?

Maybe it's just to give Mick a break, if he's particularly tired that day?

Mick and tired don't match. It was a case of laryngitis, which sadly got the most scenic event of the tour cancelled.

the wisecracks as the expense of ronnie and to a lesser extent charlie during the intros are also priceless... in fact, i've heard it said they alone were worth the price of admission... indeed, one of the main reasons wyman is missed by some is the wisecracks about him mick would make in the intros.
