It's so weird to think that Zip Code is over...I keep thinking about how excited I was packing my suitcase the day before my dad and I flew down to San Diego. There were so many shows coming up that I couldn't wait to be a part of via IORR...oh well, now we wait for the next tour! In the meantime, we'll all have to come up with new things to talk about here. Thanks so much BV, and thank you to everyone here for making this such an incredible summer.

Here were my loudest thoughts:
(opener) OMG, did Keith forget which song to open with?! Why that pause/note??
(then read on here later it's a running joke? it fooled me/heart dropped)
(then later) He really DOES move like a black panther.
Ronnie!
Why is Lisa kissing Keith on the cheek like that/ goodbye?!
(and so on)

But the periscope shot at Satisfaction where we see Mick's back dancing with the crowd w/ his body/hands/legs back and forth, the whole floor following?
I sat up and cried like a baby. All the way thru to the bows.
*sigh*

Fantastic periscope- thank you-

Thank for sharing your thoughts love. Now ya got me all emotional.

anyone catch the banter in french?

would love to have a transcription of that!

(including "ca va?" )

If S. America is off(?), I just don't know what markets they can hit again? Do you really think the Northeast can support enough shows like in 2013?

Yep, it says 93k. Biggest show with the shortest setlist of all (apart from the Fonda concert). Anyway, it was great to "attend" this concert on IORR. Thanks a lot everybody for this awesome tour. Let's hope we can meet again soon.

Sad to think we won't be doing this again for a while. Can't say I will really miss having to wake up at 2.30 a.m. though. Anyway, they are saying "let's do this again sometime" here...

Listed as 50k? Could this beat Columbus' 59k?

A guy on Twitter mentioned 93k.

I am not sure exactly how it works, just adding an idea... Does one admission (wristband) to this festival give one entry into all of the shows over a 2 week period or something? That might explain the huge number, maybe?

Is what you are looking for on the show updates page? [www.rollingstones.com]

Sometimes they transcribe everthing Mick says, maybe they will update it.

until the next time we say goodbye

What a night! Yes, there were a few sound problems in my section. Whenever they would come to the catwalk the monitors on the side started going off and Charlie could be heard much louder. Other than that no complaints, great show. Heading back to Montreal now.

Yes!"

LOL!

I just hope Keith changes the green vest next time. I like him in that black vest he wore in 81, but he was really skinny then...

They'll be back (hopefully)!

I'm not sure, but I'm still a bit upset right now that MT wasn't involved with this tour.

I began posting here when MT "rejoined" the band in 2012. I am a die hard Taylor guy and that caused many of my posts to cause some anger. While I bitched and whined constantly, I really tried to enjoy this "last tour" and voiced my complaints in the many MT threads...Mick T will always be the Rolling Stones era I grew up with and love the most, but the Rolling Stones are much bigger than one particular member and I have concluded to just accept that I was blessed to see him, greet him, and enjoy the shows .

Thanks, Aquamarine!

Just came back from the concert - one word: AMAZING.
The band is really, really tight and they looked like they were having a blast, especially Ronnie. These guys will never stop, they're having too much fun.

Highlights:
Bitch - heavy guitars, awesome groove.
Miss You - Darryl kicked some serious ass. And Tim Ries was fantastic.
Sympathy - fantastic solo by Keith.
Before They Make Me Run - Charlie was on fire.
YCAGWYW - almost 10 minutes long, one of the best live versions I've heard.

I'll send a longer report to BV with pictures but man, that was really, really good. What the boys lost in speed over the years, they've replaced with enthusiasm, groove (Darryl really impressed me tonight) and pure, gritty rock n' roll.

I will speculate that it is just what we already know, Stones will take a rest, rumors of a few more shows this year, Keith will support the new record with a couple of shows and nothing solid about SA but still a possibility.

My best hope is a couple more NA shows in 2015 while all the gear and stage is still around and the band is agile. I'm thinking one San Francisco area show, one Seattle area show and one New York City area show.

We can only hope....

Did anyone think Mick and Keith interacted more this tour than the past ? It was not overt affection, but they did not seem to purposely avoid each other. I saw Keith clap after Mick performed MR and Jagger did have some interaction with Keith during MR with the harp and SFM at the start...Off course Mick shared most of his stage antics for RW and has been doing so since 75...

I think maybe you're right...maybe they're putting their differences aside for the sake of the fans (and the wonderful music, of course)
