They could play any of Blue and Lonesome songs this Fall. And they should.....would be perfect on the mini stage...
While the one or two songs they played at the Desert Trip/Vegas shows were indeed among the highlights (for me), it was mainly the diehards that had any interest.
A majority of the people - at least around me - seemed disinterested in blues covers. Even Mixed Emotions was received better by the general masses. Now that B&L is nearly a year old, would they bother to bore a majority of the crowd with blues covers? Probably not...better chance of them regurgitating Doom and Gloom again. Or maybe play another "deep cut" from their catalogue like they did with Mixed Emotions.... The hope of anything truly new being played seems a lost cause with the delay of the supposed new album.
Wasn't that before the album was released? It sold 2 million
Yeah you're right, but still wonder how many average Joe's will be clamoring to hear Ride 'em on Down or some other blues cover vs. all the traditional warhorses (or a "rarity" like Mixed Emotions).
I totally agree with your wish about playing blues covers on a mini stage, but don't think it would ever happen. If it were up to me, I'd say they should play the entire album in a small club.
At best they will play one song from Blue and Lonesome, and maybe a surprise such as another Beatles cover.
Play some Drake material then, apparently the average Joe has a better chance of recognizing it....maybe the Stones should play three Drake songs on the mini stage.
I meant the average Joe Stones fan who only know of the warhorses and who make up a majority of the attendance at Stones concerts.

I mean we always expected our favorite bands to play the new stuff. That was exciting. Now it's all turned around and we're not suppose to expect anything but "the hits".

Wondering if any progress is being made with supposed new album...new tour starts in a little over a month.
Is it possible the Stones will have a new single to unleash before then?
Mick was able to surprise attack us all with Getta Grip/England Lost, so maybe something's already in the can?
Hearing Micks new solo tunes - while not bad - really only served to make me more anxious about a new Stones album.

Hopefully he's writing something epic - sometimes creative greatness is the result of experiencing hard times.

In just a moment he will fall asleep while the tape is still running...
Incidentally, I've just re-listened to Doom and Gloom and to One More Shot, and
Keith Richards wins hands down.

There's something poignant or bittersweet about this photo...Keith all alone at the piano while the rest of the boys are out celebrating the new single.

Well, it is a bit obvious now but the album won't be released until sometime in 2018, they are still not feeling 100% confident with the results so far and more work is required to get it done right.
