If I could play the bass like Darryl I'd play it differently

Why would they ever take it out of the warhorse rotation? It's one of their biggest smash records. Women love it. I loved it, when Bill played it. It adds variety to their sound on stage. Compared to the calcified numbers they play, it actually sounds newer. (Although Miss You is 44-years-old!)

I can't believe they wasted stage time with Sad, Sad, Sad in Madrid. So many great catalogue numbers to draw from, and they pick that clunker.

It's more easy to jam during 10 minutes with Miss You than play 3 other songs on the same time frame and the same for other warhorses, 8-10 minutes of endless jams.

On a 2 hours+ concert they can play 25 songs very easy, 4 minutes each song and that's it, but it's more easy to play a 10 minutes version of Satisfaction than play 3 other songs on the same time.

MISS YOU is: "OUT of Time" Please drop it! But it's a song for some rest during the show. Boring, boring and boring song.I can miss it 1000 %

Personally I enjoy "Miss You", but if it ever were to be dropped from the setlist, I would suggest "Emotional Rescue" as the near-perfect replacement. It's hardly ever been played live (so one can't say they are becoming bored with it), yet it carries that very similar Stonesey-disco vibe that may otherwise be lost from the show.

I also wonder if the band would ever consider rotating "Mixed Emotions" with "Sad Sad Sad". I enjoy both tracks, as both are similar up-tempo rockers from the same album, but the former was the actual single, so why not try playing that one instead every so often?

I agree with all of this. Outstanding ideas! I love Emotional Rescue and I’d like to hear Mixed Emotions, too.

Please don't. Emotional Rescue sucks ass. Mixed Emotions though would be great.

I can't remember which interview it was, but I remember Jagger saying that it was difficult singing Mixed Emotions live in concert

I once read somewhere Jagger said "Hand of Fate" was too difficult to sing because it had too many words.

You've gotta be kidding. Most of it is straight-up fist pumping here, which is great, but I like the differing points of view as it makes it interesting.

I have never watched or listened to Miss You, ( Ok played it a few times when i bought Some Girls ) toilet brake if I'm at the Shows, skip that track of its on a CD or Album, literary can't stand any of it but happy for you guys that love it.

Mick will never drop it from the setlist so not much point in starting a campaign, that's my pennies worth, now I'll get the haters telling me why it's so important to be played at every show forever.

Just my opinion guys, it's just one track.

Funny you call "haters" those who actually like the song or who doesn't agree with your opinion.

Besides, I don't think the idea of starting a"campaign" for the band not doing something is the smartest idea. What's next: a campaign for the band to stop doing concerts (although reading some comments here that seems to be the hidden agenda)?

Anyway, just one track, as you say. So let's if we get a bashing thread for each war horse here. A good start with "Start Me Up" and "Miss You".

- Doxa

And there you go

Read my post, i said there is no point in anyone starting a campaign, i'm happy for you to love Miss You, but obviously its not Ok with you for me to not like it, you kind of proved my point, me not liking Miss You is not a personal attack on anyone, i just don't like the song, i don't like disco, is that ok.

You have to admit people bitch here about the smallest things. Most of it is unjustified.

Miss You is a standout tune both in the studio and live, though I'd like it much more without the dreadfully bloated showcase solo from Darryl.
Yes he's a great bass player, but it's a bit cringeworthy and seems out of place at a Stones show. Did Bill ever play such a solo? No. Case closed.

Miss You has a completely different groove to all other songs in the set and is very dancable, too. I always enjoy it at the show,, as do most of the crowd.

What stands out to me first and foremost is the current show has no B-stage set, and no Brown Sugar.

Amen to that Brother

Will they play Angie?

I probably give up that they will ever perform We Love You....and why not one song from 60 years ago....I'm A King Bee will fit in the set list

__________________________

I agree completely, Out of Time is such an excellent addition to the set list!! It reminded me of how much of an awesome 60s pop hit that song is. Stones delivered so many of them in that mid-60s period. With an intriguing and playful intro, it explodes into a powerful chorus that is perfect for stadium sing-alongs. I will be so happy if we get to hear it in Munich, but hearing Mother's Little Helper would also be satisfying. Let's wait and see.

3. Start Me Up
4. Don't Stop

Well the first four cuts especially number 4, are hardly inspirational or innovative.

What is the point discussing at all? The setlist is the same as the last time. Interesting till about song number eight and from then on the usual suspects. Nothing is going to change that. Nothing.

The setlists are great - for the first 8 songs of the show. From then on (9-19) it is the usual suspects, and they are the same for every show.
That pattern is not going to change so it is no use even discussing here on the forum.

Okay thanks for letting me know.
