Wish there was a film of them opening the show at Enmore Theatre, Sydney,in 2003 with Midnight Rambler.

81/82 Under My Thumb EVERY TIME ... the most awesome opener ever in the history of their live performances !!

1966 opener Not Fade Away

Brian is so great here. He's got that really really driving locomotive rhythm thing going on...
He really brings so much excitement & soul. His last ever U.S. Rolling Stones concert.

That was good of them on the 1997 and 1998 BRIDGES stadium tours to open with Satisfaction for every show, get that clunk out of the way (like they did with Jumpin' Jack Flash in 1999 for the NA arena and EU stadium shows).

I always think openers are very interesting. Not just for live shows but for albums too.
I know it is OT all the way, but the song George chose to open "All Things Must Pass" with has always surprised, even baffled me. 'I'd Have You Anytime'.
