I don't care about Legend(s).
I care about music.

Adorable ELLEN PAGE comes pretty close, imo.
Great setlist indeed and as all of you may have noticed, Just Your Fool is live much better than on record.

Maybe this week in Vegas ARE their last live shows. They are too cool to put their fans thru all the drama of 'this is it'. Too messy. The new blues is their full circle.
Do you REALLY think they are going to tour Europe in June 2017?
I don't.
And I'm not being negative Nancy, that appears to be others jobs here,
I think I'm realistic.
Thank you, thank you Rolling Stones, you've been a huge part of my life.
I don't think they will end it in a foreign continent..

At the risk of sounding really out of it, I have to ask! When did they decide to do Oct 14TH??? I thought this 3 day festival was ONLY Oct 7-9 with the 2 bands each day.....WHEN did they add last weekend? It WAS NOT on any poster and it sure was not discussed much in advance on IORR..unless I slept through it. I confess to having lots going on in my little world right now but I don't usually miss BIG things!

Just had a quick catnap after making it back home a little while ago, and had the craziest dream!
I dreamed I saw Dylan, the Stones, Neil Young, Paul McCartney, The Who, and Roger Waters all at the same festival over a three day weekend in the middle of the Desert with apprx. 100,000 people...it was all seemingly like a giant mirage. What made it even weirder was I saw a repeat of the same thing a week later! And even weirder still, in between those weekends I saw Neil Young in a tiny theater with only 2,000 others. It was a strange dream alright, as the prices for the first weekend had dropped down to reasonable $600 for a 3 day Pit pass (and kept going lower and lower), while the second weekend Pit passes went down to $300 or less. Craziest dream I ever had, and then I woke up only to realize it was all real...it really happened! Pinching myself to make sure I haven't died and gone to Rock and Roll heaven. It's all a blur right now, and will take days, weeks, and even months to make sense of it all. As the old saying goes, sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction, and if someone told me a year that I would actually experience all of this, I would have told them they're completely out of their minds and/or very, very high.
Heading back to the Desert/Vegas this weekend for my wife's birthday, and if Stones ticket prices drop down low enough I might even buy a pair!
If I dream that I bought floor tickets for $100 each, maybe it will really have happened?!!!
I'm not the only one enjoying this journey with you, enjoy it my young friend

Is the audio really from Desert Trip? Sounds like it's too well-mixed for being recorded only a few hours ago. I would guess they took the audio from Shanghai or Tel Aviv 2014.
I think this is Zilker Park 2006 actually.

Many have suggested this.
A discussion of the Stones' official YouTube channel probably merits a thread of its own, but is there any possible excuse / justification for this? Does it bother fans? Is it seen as a deliberate attempt to mislead and misrepresent or not?

They (rs.com/Facebook(twitter etc.) used to release a short video right after the show on the 2013/14 tours.
However, the dry soundboard audio (often of JJF) was usually a pain to the ears.
From the 2014 gig in Rome (correct me if I'm wrong), they released a video of Streets Of Love, with audio from an earlier tour. They've been doing that ever since.
They get the fresh footage out fast, with professionally recorded sound (as opposed to an unevenly sounding, dry soundboard).
That's probably the reason, not that the performance is sloppy. Zilker Park has its flaws as well

Looking over clips from the show on Friday and agree that the show on the 14th was the better. Wish I could find a recording of 'Live With Me', but no luck so far.
Found an interesting moment during the much-maligned 'Miss You' - it appears even Richards may be losing interest. What distracts Keith in the clip below? A cigarette that hasn't been put out or an unwelcome bug on stage, perhaps. Whatever it is culminates in Wood telling his bandmate to leave it be and 'Join in!':

The greed factor makes me kind of sick. Obviously people balked at the outrageous prices for pit pass tickets.
When you suck all of the disposable income out of somebody that means that they don't have money to spend in their own communities, or money to spend for their children's clothes, etc.
