Mystery photos from 1981

These pictures from the Getty archive seem to indicate another music video was filmed for Tattoo You. Anyone have any info about this? Maybe just a rehearsal? If that's the case Start Me Up would have looked a lot better in the clothes below!

The black and white treatment of these photos give the 1981 era a completely new (better IMHO) look.

Maybe the sweat rings had to dry up between takes on SMU. Well, no, they didn't dry up winking smiley

Funny how Mick can turn his personality on and off. He's a completely different person in the "candid" pics.

It's all smoke and mirrors....that was the period Ronnie was so into freebase and so skinny and gaunt that a strong wind would have blown him away. That guitar probably weighs as much as he does. lol

So these pictures are from the same day as the known promofilms?
Would love to see these alternate videos...
No pictures of Keith, Charlie or Bill?

PS edit: I had a look in the Getty images archive. Great pictures there! Rehearsals at Longview Farm, Waiting On A Friend videoshoot and more.

mick is holding his sunglasses in his left hand in the first picture, so it must be a camera rehearsal.
but what's absolutely BLOWING MY MIND is mick's t-shirt. first that mick is wearing a marianne shirt. and not only is it way cool but it looks like it's from 2015. unbelievably cool for 1981.

Fantastic photos!

They are Plaiyng records to decide what songs to rehearse.

Mick putting on Emotional Rescue (yes it's in the photo). Starts dancing. Keith shakes his head...says NO!

Always wondered if ER was rehearsed in 81.
