That was really something else, beautiful, just how he keeps on singing that one better each time is beyond me.
That was worth the ticket price on its own
Pretty sure it was rambler... might be wrong... sat next to Charlie's hi-hat... it happened twice, initially I thought he was either ill or tired, but seemed to pick up.Quote

Keith is sitting down now for parts of the show?!!!
Man, I hope he can keep up with the pace and keeps up the spirit...GO KEITH GO!!!
When did he sit down? He's not sitting down on MR or PIB.
It had been mentioned in this thread by a couple of people who were at the show.Quote

A couple of times he was sat by Charlie's kit playing his guitar.... never seen that before... made me wonder if the weight of those Les Paul's is taking its toll....Quote

One final point - I think Keith was sitting down playing on midnight rambler
During which songs, do you know? I'm just trying to catch up on the youtube.
He sings that just straight from his heart. We all know that this thing called The Rolling Stones is coming to an end slowly and for me this song is like Keiths way to say goodbye. We can only speculate about his condition, maybe the arthritis is getting worse, maybe he feels a little bit tired, maybe his relationship to Mick is bad at this point, we all don't know that for sure, but at some moments things seem like that. And to me it is like Keith it putting all that feelings into this one song because it sounds so hearttouching.Quote

Exact same thoughts as me.

I gave it the good old college try - but getting a connection and keeping it was difficult. I hope someone else had better luck than me. Even with a mifi with 4G and two battery extenders- nothing was working.
Thanks for this stone4ever.

I'd like it if they opened with SMU, and killed the Devil song altogether.

Has anyone got any footage evidence of Keith sitting down.
This would be upsetting if true, i hope someone is taking care of Keith, hope he has his wife and family with him.
That's what I mean, it just has an upsetting tone about it. I'm sure Keith is fine, he looks good. Probably when you're his age, one or two extra drinks could change the complexion of your playing quite substantially. Because why was Zurich so great?
Yes that's right Socrates, i think if Keith is having a few too many drinks before going on stage some nights to calm his nerves, we will see varying levels of performance from him.
At 74 i just think he is too old to get away with it, playing and health wise.
There were flashes of brilliance from him yesterday on a few song's , Slipping Away was so emotionally charged after his standing ovation from the crowd that it nearly brought me to tears, it was like he was really slipping away, his voice so fragile and heartfelt, yet full of powerful emotion at the same time. Nonetheless i felt like he had gone backwards in effort and performance when compared to the two previous show's.
Knowing Keith he might come out firing on all cylinders at the Amsterdam gig.
I certainly hope so.

As we were looking at the stage Keith sat down on the right of charlies drum kit for a fair bit of midnight rambler... he got up again when they go to fast tempo to co-ordinate the change with ronnie and charlie...
Don't know if anyone can find a vid...
Its fine if he sits down for a bit I think though conserve the energy and concentrate on the playing I think

I watched the rambler video twice and unless it was edited I saw him standing/playing the whole song.
