Watching back yesterday's Midnight Rambler on Youtube, it's very funny to see it from this angle.
There's quite some missed cues here and there...
Charlie tries to dig in to Mick's vibe during the Ee-yo-yo-yo-part, but it doesn't gel.
Keith goes to the A-chord one bar early at some point, and Darryl gets him back in.
But the nice thing is: it's all done in such good spirits.
No this is not the menacing, group of dangerous rebels on the 1972 tour, but a bunch of survivors who celebrate their survival and are amazed the train is still rolling.
Something to appreciate!
And rarely does the sound of YouTube videos do justice to the show.
And maybe the sound is only really good at some places in the venue.
But this video is good on a lot of levels:

3rd date in fosse OR. The least good of the three, the second concert was the best for me.
OMG the audience in the fosse OR ... a horror !!! grandpas and grannies who spend their time to taking disgusting videos with their smartphones or stay static. Nothing to do with Sunday's audience, younger, more stone addict.
Regarding our Stones, they clearly had their heads already at home.
Mick, breathless level "jokes", What is the point of talking about Patrick Bruel or Mrs. Macron, apart from booing by the public ?? !!
He seemed very exasperated by the softness of the audience (I understand him).
Keith ... great Thursday and Sunday. But there, OMG it was bad !! he decided to do no solo or almost ... even on Satisfaction !!.
Ronnie ... he was here yesterday? I did not see him...
Finally, a concert not at all up for a final date tour. The Stones clearly wanted to finish it as soon as possible. I'm disappointed.

Interesting...Keith was that bad, and Ronnie was a no show.
All that's left is Mick telling bad jokes and Charlie keeping the beat.

No not at all Hairball, Keith was great, Ronnie was high as a kite, but its Rock and Roll.
Mick was stronger vocally than i have heard for 20 years. When he doesn't pace himself he Mick still has it.

I take it you were there stone4ever?
Actually what I found interesting was the mixed reviews and the differences of opinions of people who were at the same show.
That review posted by Highwire75 is one of the worst I've read the entire tour, yet others claim it was a great show!
That said, everybody's opinions are valid.

Look up fanatic in the dictionary and there he is, and kind of doubt someone at this level of fanaticism would ever say a single negative word about their band.
Yes I saw that. I was surprised because earlier in the show he made sure to put his blue jacket on the floor. Later he shot in with his foot (to make sure no one was going to slide on it, I thought). But it was not a simple tee-shirtQuote

I didn’t read it before but Mick was throwing again his red shirt in the crowd, this time in GA.
The look on his face when he realises the mic stand is empty. :-)Quote

This is so great and funny, like kids playing in the yard: Paint it black last night.
(Keith starts the song, Charlie plays)
Mick: Damn it. (runs away)
Ronnie: Whoa.
Keith: What's up with Mick?
Ronnie: He forgot his microphone.
Keith: (laughing and shaking his head) I love that guy.
Charlie: One, two, three, four.
Chuck: Pling, pling.

I was lucky enough to get hooked up with a pit ticket for last night, and spent the concert against the rail on Keith’s side. What a difference! First, in Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Paris on Sunday, few folks in the seats were standing, and that made a huge difference for me, there was so much less energy. Second, last night reminded me of huge fireworks displays - that same feeling of concussion you get in the chest just from the physical impact of the sound. Third, the sound quality wads amazing, and I was surprised it came through in some video clips I shot. And the proximity made the whole show more immediate and intense - even in the lower stands adjacent to the stage there is about 50 feet of floor between the seat and the stage at the closest place. I think I’m spoiled for life now, and so glad to have had this experience!
Didn't manage to catch you at the end. Glad you enjoyed it. I had all the dancing space in the world about 20 yards behind you.

I tell it like it is Hairball, the two shows i saw, Paris 2 and 3 were better than most shows since 2012 and definitely better than any show in 07'
There was a lot of emotion attached to these last shows,, especially last nights, we the fans felt it, and the Stones themselves new it, it was possibly the last ever show Wednesday, and if it was, the Stones should be very proud to bow out in such an explosive energetic passionate way.
But alas there were many external problems that spoiled it outside of the Stones performances. I will never see a show in Paris again.

It was a fantastic show, i had many problems that spoiled it, camera confiscated and pissed about etc, but the Stones gave it all they had, they really did give it all, but Highwire75 has some valid points he is not prepared to expand on. I don't blame him.
I much preferred Sundays show.

Didn't see that ? When did that happen ? When he took off his blue jacket he made sure it stayed on the catwalk.
