Ha! This is mine. Was just coming here to post them myself. I have about 800 shots from the Pit of tonight! Managed to get my 50mm lens in after showing the guards a letter saying it was allowed. Will post the whole album up in next 24 hours or so

Great photos, raphph. Thanks for sharing!
Thats what they call a large beer in FranceQuote

- Pints are a ripoff 40 cl instead of 50 cl! They invested a lot in those stupid sturdy cups with Arena logo, would have preferred the usual plastic cup with more beer!

"...still, the tour is lacking some more variantion, only two slot with some rotation is not enough"
I wonder, slewan, when exactly the variety was "enough", for some fans... I had read somewhere that the Stones played 33 different songs on 1978 tour and 37 different songs during 1981 tour. After 25 and 50 songs respectively. If i estimated correctly, on the current tour they have played 33 songs, already. After 11 gigs...
well, I guess 3-5 slots featuring different songs would be good. And maybe change one war horse with another one. For example: Streetfighting Man/Paint It Black or Brown Sugar/JJF
and they shouldn't have droped the two more songs they played in Hamburg or rather keep these two additional slots
Anyone know the song stats for the Licks tour?
Not only did they change the themes each night (Exile, Sticky Fingers, etc) with a few songs from each, but they also mixed it up alot for the small theater/club shows.
Based on that, my guess would be the most variety of any tour...
see: [www.setlist.fm]
but don't get fooled by the sheer number of songs performed during tours. For you can get a high number of performed songs by doing the same setlist 50+ times and then adding a handful of club shows with only rare songs and/or one offs…
(it's just like with the no filter tour - 37 songs in 11 shows sounds good at first glance, but we all know that nearly all songs that are not performed on ever show were performed just once…)
True enough, but as I mentioned the arena shows for Licks (and maybe stadiums also) featured a different album theme each night in rotation which would mean songs that have been played multiple times.
Then you throw in some of the "rare" tunes that were played more than once at various club/theater shows, and finally adding songs which might have only been played once - I don't think there were any one-offs though.
Don't have time to decipher all the stats at setlist.com right now, just thought someone might already have that info., thanks though.

That is an AMAZING photo. I was just thinking how lucky that person was to have taken it. Keith looking you right in the eye and looking so happy.
Congrats!

As for Mick's black coat with the birds and flowers...I might be the only one who thinks it looks ghastly on him...it reminds me of drapes from a Chinese restaurant, but I'm sure he paid quite alot of money for it!
But never mind, he looks and sounds great overall and that's all that matters.

You're not the only one. I really don't care for the print at all, or the red lapels.
Doesn't matter, true, cuz he sounds and moves great, and looks fine in most all the other outfits.
