My review:
Tonight was my 10th show overall and second show on this tour. My girlfriend and I flew from Miami to Austria last Friday. We went to the show in Spielberg on Saturday.
As for tonight, we got to the show at about 630 after speaking with some really nice people in the Crowne Plaza bar. Compared to Austria, getting into the show was extremely easy. Opening Band was the struts, who were pleasant.
We had general admission tickets and walked right up to the fence, as close as we could get to the pit. The stones came on at 8:30 with sympathy, all I can say is they freaking rocked. This is the best show I have ever seen. They were on fire, plain and simple. Everybody knows about Keith's mishaps in the Austrian show, and tonight he was superb. Song vote was like a Rolling Stone which they played amazing! , they played dancing with Mr. D, and they performed hate to see you go for the first time. Keith played happy and slipping away, and his voice was phenomenal ! I could not believe how amazing the band was. The crowd was amped up, Mick was running around, it was literally perfect. It goes to show, they still are the world's greatest rock 'n' roll band. I hope they never stop rolling! Long live the stones!

Powerful Keef intro to SFM! He hit those chords accurately and with authority.

For all three - Zurich, Lucca and Barcelona. At least I hope it's $200 and I'm not hit for extra charges for the rental mifi.

Our Lucky Dips were good - they were on the field. It was a very crowded field and we'd spent the day outside of Zurich at Schloss Laufen and the Rheinfalls. Neither of us wanted to deal with people jostling us, drunks falling on us, etc., so we stayed at the back of the field, with a delay tower in front of us. The sound was wonderful.
I was surprised at the number of people buying (not picking up) tickets at show time. And by all the people crowding the sidewalk outside and windows in nearby buildings to listen to the concert.

Best show Ive viewed and heard up to this point in the tour. SFM was great and the best version Ive seen since KC 2015. Just blows me away how these men are so spirited although a little slower for sure yet still spirited at this point in their lives much less their profession.

The periscope one from Selene, the audio was much better than this clip.
This clip, however, Mick close up thru-out, frankly, I find him distracting.
I am taking the high ride (ha ha) and will say, he distracts me.

Just realized somethings been missing in this thread... wondering about poor HankM, where he's at, and whatever happened to him.
Having virtually experienced the first few subpar shows via periscope and participating in these fun show threads with us,
he's missing all the fun and positive energy now with the great performance in Zurich!!! The Stones are back but where's HANK?
Maybe his over enthusiasm and fanaticism got the best of him and he needed a break...maybe he'll be back for the Lucca show...

Sometimes he just want to enjoy the shows, I guess. I can understand and relate to that. Loved yesterday's show
