Wanted to take the "bitch about the setlist" conversation in the opposite direction by asking people what their favorite addition was in the 40 Licks shows.

The Stones offered a few gems and a number of real surprises, what were your top three?

I'll go with

Hand of Fate
Stray Cat Blues, and
IORR with Bono (lucky enough to have a ticket)

She Smiled Sweetly
Parachute Women
Worried About You

Salt Of The Earth
Heart Of Stone
Torn And Frayed
Hot Stuff
Undercover Of The Night

If You Cant Rock Me
Mannish Boy
Midnight Rambler

ROCKMAN

1. Can't you hear me knocking

2. Stray cat blues

3. Far away eyes

The "non-staple" Forty Licks tunes I recall most fondly:

Wild Horses

Sweet Virginia

Cant You Hear Me Knockin'

Midnight Rambler

Waiting on a Friend (which they just played again in Milwaukee)

Monkey Man- which I'm not wild about but is memorable.

And unquestionably the very highlight of the whole tour: Sympathy for the Devil followed by Gimme Shelter... a double dose of creepy perfection at 2nd U.C. gig Jan 22,'03. Prolly the highlight of all stones shows I ever saw.
