This is something I've never understood. When you gotta go, you gotta go. That's about all the planning I do.
Yes, hello, gotta go gotta go (B & L 'Gotta Go')
HOWEVER, you can restrict liquid consumption, no?
Replenish later.
That's all I'm saying.
They didn't perform "Miss You" at the first show in Washington D.C. 1994. They played "Hot Stuff" instead.
They started in with "Miss You" at the second show 2 days later .... August 3rd.
Well NOW we're finally getting somewhere.
I hope so.
Spot on!
That damn keyboard harmonica is the only downfall to that one. It's fast, which was probably a good thing, because it's gotten really slow and longer ever since.
Just like that damn triangle being the downfall of SFTD on that tour, which had some otherwise killer versions of that song.
Seriously, it's like an annoying mosquito that won't go away on a perfect day.

I like that. Matt Clifford is like an annoying mosquito that won't go away on a perfect day.
I'm kidding of course. His contribution to the Monty Python dramatic irony sketch was much appreciated by all.
Matt has done some very nice work, "Continental Drift," "Break the Spell," "Terrifying," "Angel in My Heart," the live arrangement of "Play with Fire" immediately come to mind.
Still, imagine BLUE & LONESOME with Ben Waters or even if Chuck had played with them at British Grove instead of trying to fit him in later.
Mainly, I think of him as Tony King than I do Nicky Hopkins.
Thanks Rocky, I'm actually a little proud of that one myself.
As a huge fan of the Steel Wheels album, I couldn't agree more about the songs you named. AFAIC, "Terrifying" needs to be brought back to the setlist, and "Break The Spell" need to make its live debut ASAP. And even though it gets dumped on all the time, "Continental Drift" is a song I like very much.
And that live version of "Play With Fire" arranged by Matt Clifford, LOL, has to be the closest thing the Stones ever came to a genuine 1980s power ballad. To paraphrase the wise Jeff Foxworthy: "If you hear a keyboard and you can't tell if it's a a piano, a synthesizer or a violin, and it brings to mind an image of crystal and sparkle and chandelier and prism, you just might be listening to a 1980s power ballad!"

As long as we're all fantasizing, they can make my dream come true and drop Sympathy in favor of "Dancing With Mr. D" (or, if they really want to be ironic, "Heaven"). Or at replace the current Sympathy for the original live-arrangement from 1969-1976.
What about the pre-programmed beat ??
What about the lazy vocal delivery ??
What about the skipped verses since 2002 (and '89/'90) ??
What about the "woo woo" crowd sing along ??
Talk about your favorite band.

Just watched the Paris show from Totally Stripped tonight and thought what a good version of Miss You they played which got me to reflect that they very often hit a great groove with that song and whilst it would not be on the setlist of choice of many a hardcore fan it's a crowd favourite and I can see why.

Generally speaking performances of miss you post 82 aren't very listenable. But if you happen to catch me on the right day I've been known to tap my toe to a Vegas era version.

I think the older versions are better. The song has become to long and drags on. Listen to the opening riff on Hampton the song was rocking.
Although DC 1994 the first show when Bobby Keys came out and took the song to another was great too but lately it has gotten old due to hearing it so much. I have never found a Stones concert a bore except in 2005 at UVA when they had the bomb scare I was bored waiting for them to get back on stage.
Bathroom break...........to each his own. I'd say a bathroom break beats the alternative.
They didn't perform "Miss You" at the first show in Washington D.C. 1994. They played "Hot Stuff" instead.

The 78 live versions are great. Only Keith and Ronnie can turn a disco song into a blues song with those beautiful guitar licks. Nasty. So good. I like Mick's rambling lyrics. Classic Stones.
"You'll be studying history and you'll be down the gym. And I'll be down the pub, probably playing pool and drinking."

This is perhaps my fave simply because of what Ronnie does at 4:36 and then Mick's reaction to it.

Yeah, I get what everyone is saying. My favorite live versions of MY are from 1978 and 1981/1982 (especially 1981, thanks to Ernie Watts). And the fake harmonica notwithstanding, I like the 1989/1990 versions too. After that, it hasn't been a song I needed to hear at a Stones show.
(That said, they did an INCREDIBLE version at the first Boston show on the 50 & Counting Tour, with Mr. Jones' bass solo being especially memorable.)

Still, imagine BLUE & LONESOME with Ben Waters or even if Chuck had played with them at British Grove instead of trying to fit him in later.
Mainly, I think of him as Tony King than I do Nicky Hopkins.

One of my favorites. My favorite live versions are on the voodoo lounge and Bridges tours. I am really disappointed in the version on Ole Ole. That sax interlude doesn't seem to fit in with the song. The version on Havana Moon is much better and I like the sax player better.
