I agree. No shows in nearly a year. I would strongly expect a warm up gig somewhere to knock off some rust.

If you include the other private show at the Bellagio Oct. 6, that would make it "five" shows.

Bellagio.
Desert Trip x 2.
Vegas.
Foxboro.


But since both private shows only consisted of 14 songs, and the Vegas show was slightly cut short because of Mick being sick (18 songs),
you could average it out and round it off to a total of 4 shows, and that would be closer to the truth.

Yes !!

I'm going to stalk them day and night, day in day out !!

I'm going to break into their hotels and their houses, take photographs of them brushing their teeth and putting on their pyjamas, getting up in the morning, having breakfast, going to the rehearsal studios, playing Jiving Sister Fanny, having coffee breaks, walking their dogs, I'm going to hack their mobile phones ........... and with all of this information, I'm going to post all the gruesome details on IORR and/or sell it to the Daily Mail !!

Apart from that, there isn't really any news !!

[ I want to shout, but I can hardly speak ]

Paulywaul

Looking forward to these crucial updates

Just a thought, maybe they don't play many of their 60's songs is because they are owned by ABKCO and they don't want to pay royalties? I know they do play some but they mainly play ones released after leaving ABKCO

This is no laughing matter, I'll have you know !! Not knowing the colour of the stripes on a Rolling Stone's pyjamas will massively detract from being in the pit for three of their shows ....... !!

ABKCO era songs have made up at least half of the setlists on the last few tours.

The reason behind the sudden reluctance of including Chuck Berry-songs in the set is also interesting, imo..

They certainly don't do Chuck Berry justice when they have dusted one of his songs off over the last twenty years. It is interesting to speculate as to why that is. Keith played wonderfully with Chuck Berry for HAIL! HAIL! so what happened over the next decade? When they play Berry since 1997, they seem almost timid as if they're afraid to rip into the song. Admittedly, I think Mick in concert tends to act that way more to pace himself. He only really comes alive when they do a soul song or something like "Worried About You" from their own catalog. Why Keith and Ronnie should hesitate to tear into trading Chuck Berry riffs, I can't imagine. They seem reluctant when they play them as if they lack the confidence they can do them justice. Maybe it has to do with Keith's fingers and making sure he can get through a show. For me, I would rather they not extend the crowd-pleasing numbers and play more songs by cutting the performances down to four minutes or so. I would think that would be easier on his fingers as well, but I could be mistaken.

This is the exception, though, and I thought this rendition was great.

I would have to agree with you both. That was fantastic. If not quite El Mocambo, it is far and away better than I had expected.

Ha! I didn't see Hockenheim's post (no visible embedded video)

EDIT: I see now that we posted them more or less simultaneously, he he

Dear Sir Michael Jagger:
Formally please requesting a photograph in regards to rehearsals No Filter.
Informally wondering:
About your custom made track pants.
Have you ever sang for the RS in the last...20 years, sitting on a stool?
Will you be wearing a cowboy hat this Fall?
Sincerely,
A fan

Just be thankful they are rehearsing. Starting the engines one more time. So be happy we get another chance at seeing the boys, even if it turns out to be a similar set list.

Mick just posted a picture from PorteAlegre South American tour 2016
I can't post pics but remember the torrential down pour
and Mick in the hat dancing thru, the boys bracing the gusts?
Guess there'll be no stool sitting from this man.
WHOO HOOOOO
