Hello mateys,
Just wondering whether there's anyone else here who no longer goes to Stones concerts.
Personally I'm tired of almost identical set lists and rip-off ticket prices. My last concert was at the O2 for A Bigger Bang where we treated to one song from that album. I must say I wouldn't want to hear too many songs from A Bigger Bang but there are a few worth playing.
Small venues aside, I can't see myself bothering to see them again.
Raleigh would be september 89 not 91 as they didn't tour 91.Quote

Not in the same league with most of you -- I only saw them once, on the Steel Wheels tour in Raleigh, N.C. in Sept. 91. I had to look it up to refresh my memory -- boy, they played a lot of dates on that tour. They were in St. Louis the very next night and played six shows in nine days in that stretch. I wonder how much sleep Keith was getting!
I had the feeling at the time of 'See them now before it's too late.' Little did I know they were about the halfway point of their careers!
It was a stadium show, we were way up in the bleachers. The stage was pretty cool, but far away. 2000 Years Was a highlight. It was cool seeing them, but as much as I like them, I had the feeling that I had checked this off my bucket list and was content to let them pass whenever they came around again. I had kids and bills and would rather go see acts in smaller venues when I did go out to see a band.
