After all is said and done with US dates this year I'd like for BV and others who attended most every show give a honest top 3 shows. I saw Dallas and its in my top 5 all time dating back to 1975 and the best I've seen them since 98.Even with Taylor in his guest spot from 12-14 I don't think the band is playing better than they are now.

It looks full to me. I think the empty seats that posters refer to are two section of unsold seats behind the towers and stacks that are on the infield.
Other than that I see the stadium pretty full to the top.
Am I not seeing it correctly?

In the college bleacher stadiums they have been selling the corner sections and the stage is further from the 50 yard line with lots of empty space at the back of the field. The bleacher rows average 3/4 full. In the NFL stadiums with seats, the stage is closer to the 50 yard line and the corner sections are empty. Although Pittsburgh sold more of the corner seats than Kansas City.
There's a bit of smoke and mirrors going on to make the stadiums look fuller than they are.
If you're in a NFL stadium and the sound is awful at your assigned seat - move to the corners with the empty rows - the sound should be better there.

I am nervous about the periscope feeds tonight. Need a good fix. Debbie and Mike spoiled me with their exceptional scoping.

According to Wiki, just about everyone (including Fats Domino) has recorded Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller's Kansas City - which they wrote in 1952.
[en.m.wikipedia.org])
The Stones' site says they covered Wilbert Harrisin's 1959 version - which was a #1 hit.

Have a blast everyone! Be thankful you aren't in the middle of the heatwave we are getting in the Pacific Northwest, over 100 deg the next couple days in many places which are usually 25 deg F cooler this time of year! Brutal.
What, even on the coast between SC and HMB ? That's normally a good place to always get some cool air! That's one place I miss...
Anyway,any scopes going up tonight?
Good memory gotablouse, pretty sure that part of the coast is wonderfully cool today from the inland thermals pulling a nice ocean breeze onshore. But this week I'm in central Idaho at a little resort community called McCall, beautiful lakes, rivers and mountains. Spend the day kayaking on a cold mountain river and thank goodness because it's like 100 degrees here! Really unusual for this place.
Looks like KC will be fairly pleasant today at showtime. 76 deg and only 39% humidity! Glad for all the concert goers today. Perfect.
Hope the periscope feed sound works with my Chrome browser tonight too. Not sure what the deal was last time but I couldn't even get it with Firefox.

Someone asked about top 3, so far of the 7 I've seen on this tour: Nashville, Milwaukee, and Kansas City (I didn't see Atlanta)....I did see Texas and agree it was a superhigh energy show.

It has become a fix, hasn't it? I don't know what I'll do after Quebec.

The rest of us either, my friend, when we stop to think about it, if we're honest
I had six moths withdrawals after Auckland .... what next ?

Been skimming through the thread and sounds like it was really good show last night.
And... this is is so great.... I wasn't up at 3.30am but I'm able to listen right now to periscope replays! Listening to RS's scope - thank you so much, RS (and other scopers).
