Yes it's just me. IMHO Elvi's Vegas era was much more honest than this wasted group.
Just hear Hampton, even Tokyo 1990, even 1997 and 1999.........The only amazing thing is the spectacular decline in the guitar section
Rolling Sones music is based in KR guitar. Now wguitar playing is just a joke, below beginner level in many, too much times
In spanish, una tomadura de pelo y un abuso

i always like ronnie's deconstructed solos on SMU, and this one is
no exception. bet it sounds cool to not just me in proper quality
I think Ronnie's gone from the sublime to the ridiculous on this solo.
and back again. that's what i think i mean by "deconstructed". always
teetering on the edge of disaster. fun. like sonic youth or something.
but not gloomy. not that i know very much about sonic youth

it's too bad they let blondie chaplin go. he's a great musician & was good to have around if someone was having a bad night on guitar.

No negativity, it is great if the Stones and their audience have a good time: But why the hell does Ron Wood mess up the little SMU solo like this?

Um, Hampton they were in their 30's. Tokyo '90 they were still in their 40's. Even 1999, almost 20 years ago and basically still young in their 50's. Come on, they are all in their 70's now, SEVENTIES, and they are supposed to still be at the same level as when in their 30's, 40's, or even 50's?

After 4 great Europe shows I attended last year, this set list may have put me off going to Southampton or Coventry.

Keith needs to let "Sympathy" go. He's fast approaching the state Chuck Berry was in at the end and he's relatively much younger. He doesn't even think about the solo so why bother? Sad.

have noticed on recent tours the setlists tend to shrink as the tour goes on. starting at 19 not a good sign.
This was my first thought as I read the setlist upon waking up this morning (Sydney time). Is a 16-17 song setlist on the cards by the time this tour ends?

Correction, MICK needs to let Sympathy go, remember Mick decides what songs are played.

At least in Coventry you can see The Specials as openers, but then again you could see them elsewehere in a smaller venue for a fraction of the price.

If they did away with every song they can't play well anymore, that wouldn't leave much of a setlist left.

If they did every song on Hot Rocks (21 total) at the length of the original tracks, it would take 85 minutes. They could add the 12 extra tracks from Rewind and do 33 classics in less than 2 1/2 hours.

A sober Keith makes the shows!!!
I agree, he was too old to pull off the drinking last year, his playing is so much more focused tonight, and its the first show, this could be a fantastic UK tour and hopefully they can bow out on top of their game.
Based on the setlist, the top of their game was decades ago.
Asisde from a couple of recent blues covers, the newest tune is 24 years old (The Worst) and after that 37 year old tunes from Tattoo You.[/quot
Bullshit. This was an exceptional gig. Super tight, incredibly focussed, the entire band on top form. Probably the best I have ever see Ronnie play - he was fantastic. But they all were. Mick's singing was great but his harp playing was even better. Keith was focussed and playing great, and his vocals on both of his songs were wonderful. I have seen the Stones 40 times and O would put tonight's how in my top 5. The negativity needs to stop - they are seriously on form!
Here here. Looking forward to my three shows with combination of kids, partner and friends and GA, seat, lucky dip at an average of 60 quid a ticket. 19 songs, 18 songs whatever, it’s the f*cking stones and we’re blessed they’re still around and playing. Quit moaning and enjoy. Roll on Tuesday night.Quote

Are there that many trolls on this forum or is it the same one posting under different names? There's a thread dedicated to playlist complaining btw.
