Do any of you guys sometimes regret too many pre show drinks, i tend to forget most of the memories of the show when i drink before hand.
I prefer to have a few beers just before show time. Puts me in the right Rock and Roll mode with the bonus of remembering the Damn thing lol.
I got so wasted in London 95 at the Hard Rock cafe that i forgot what hotel i was staying in after the show and had to pay for another hotel
I never did find out, left all my luggage their too.
See above, Mike. It was your suggestion after all
When the guard showed me back to my seat for the 10th time on O2 I (I was hanging in the rails right behind the tongue pit), that thought crossed my mind
Haha
we should have a thread of funny (drunken) stories of experiences at shows.
My biggest regret is always having too many beers, not a good idea when you have worked your way to the front of a stand up stadium gig. Its not like people are going to hold your place for you on your return from the toilet hehe
My first Stones-show was in may 1990.
In the bus to Rotterdam 2 or 3 guys drank so much, they were so drunk... I think they didn't see the concert at all...
A beer is fun, but missing a Stonesconcert isn't !
The Stones always had this goal: Bring the blues to the people.
My wife and i forgot our passports when we should have seen the Stones in Holland. It was a package thing from England that included the coach trip and ferry crossing.
For some reason it just felt like we were going to a concert, not abroad. No drink involved, just two idiot country bumpkins thinking that the other must have thought of everything. Not. Coach driver goes ok passports at the ready, and we are just like looking at each other

I think the fact that the germans bought more than a 7th of all the B&L-albums sold worldwide has something to do with it...
The blues numbers at Desert Trip(s) worked very,very, well.
As they did in Vegas.
Would be shocked if they didn't play them.
don't have a scientific explanation. of course UK is probably the "most" bluesy. so I would have to edit: the most blues oriented in Europe among non-english speaking countries.
I think that I got this belief since I travelled in the late eighties in Germany (West Germany at that time). Of course record shops were a main attraction in every city and, coming from Italy, I was stunned to see all that blues stuff all those big sections dedicated to the blues (and black music in general) that I could only dream of where I live.
So since then to me Germany is THE blues nation
and yes numbers like that of the b&l sales corroborate the idea.
also the very fanbase of the stones themselves. a rock and roll band deeply rooted in the blues origin of their music that historically plays a very large number of gigs in Germany, while usually one or (seldom) two in Italy for example. i think also this is a sign of that

Maybe the Germans just love the Rolling Stones, so bought more copy's of BAL
Britain is very blues orientated, always has been since the 60's, but perhaps not so in love with the Stones as Germany and other parts of Europe. Would explain why the Stones have boycotted London this tour. I find UK audiences a bit blasa or nonchalant, like they have seen and done it all before. Audiences in the USA even more so.
I think the Stones enjoy playing to lively audiences, who can blame them.
This wasn't always the case a few decades ago, UK audiences were fantastic up until recently but now with the Stones insisting on all seating areas, with people forced to sit through a Rock concert, is just all wrong to my mind. Why can't people get up and dance and go crazy. Its all about money, you paid a shed load for your seat and you don't want anyone getting in the way lol.
I actually think it has a lot to do with how often people attend concerts, the London shows are mostly attended by concert going people as opposed to die hard Stones fans.
Obviously this is just my opinion, and i am most probably wrong, this is just my experience, its not intended to offend.
Edit. Just to add that obviously UK festivals are a different experience entirely to normal UK shows. They are wonderfully spirited and create a fantastic atmosphere. They just love live music and have a vast knowledge of music, Rock especially.
Also aren't Germany very much into Rock, loads of great Rock bands from Germany, maybe another reason BAL sold so well there.

You do remember the Allied-occupied Germany after WWII? There was blues all over Germany thanks to GB and the US soldiers. Thank god.
Talk about your favorite band.

funny to hear among Stones fans the opinion that blues songs from a 2 million selling blues covers album would not be appealing for a crowd
exspecially to a german audience that is notoriously the most "blues oriented" audience in Europe
i do hope/believe in a small blues set in the set instead

Interesting, I never heard it in the past, Maumau. Any explanation, cultural, historical, etc? I thought British audiences were more "blues friendly", thanks to bands like Stones, Cream and many others.

No need for them to play any old blues numbers. B&L was not by any means an important album which needs to be presented live. Play actual Stones songs instead, rare or not, these might be their final concerts and they shouldn't have a bunch of covers in the setlist.

I don't think "Rosso di Montalcino" make a non alcoholic wine.
After what Ronnie as been through i think he should just enjoy himself.
I wasn't there - but I'm quite positive that he ordered the red wine for Sally (and personally drank Coca Cola or Red Bull or similar).
