Fool To Cry was sublime and delighted that UMT won the vote. They kept the arrangement quite close to the original and even though its was massively different from the Still Life version it was still brilliant.
Fool to Cry was not played on the 81 (/82) tour .. Nor is it on the record 'Still Life'?
Jus noting that.
Note that "Under My Thumb" was played in '81/'82 and is on 'Still Life'. ; )

After the show did it take long to get back onto public transport(tube from Stratford I guess) and into central London. Am coming on Friday.
Not too bad, but prepare to get squashed on the tube
Walked to the back of ga for satisfaction then a very quick walk to the tube, was back at Regent’s Park on jubilee line for 1130. Two friends I was with waited til end of satisfaction and took an hour to get on a tube. It’s a single, if wide, fairly indirect route back to station with lots of stewards and sign posting. In summary, I’ve seen worse.Quote

I got the circle line to Paddington this morning at 8.30 and the squash was nearly as bad as last night. For Londoners it's an everyday ocurrence and they just tolerate it.

Fool to Cry is the weak link of the show imo, and in the video posted seemed like a buzz kill for a majority of the crowd.
Almost would prefer the more up-tempo Emotional Rescue w/falsetto (God forbid), but nah....at least Fool has a cool '70's groove going for it.
It was a highlight, and people went crazy when Mick stopped singing and towards the ending, as we also can hear in the YT-video..

I guess that depends if you like the song in the first place.
Not one of my favorites by a long shot, and probably the weakest track on Black and Blue IMO.

I meant that the audience loved the version they played yesterday. People were ecstatic.
The criticism should be motivated, I have already asked several times, where Charlie was wrong and I had no answer, so I still do not understand this criticism.Quote

Is it just me but the show the other night in Dublin and now again tonight, Charlies drums sound very weak to me.
Sorry to say but they need a new drummer.
I love you Charlie but it's time to call it a day.
Sounds like you need to get your hearing tested for starters.What a lot of old tosh!

I understand what you meant, and probably the video I watched didn't give the full impression of the entire audience reaction ( the one I watched showed several people standing w/arms crossed looking a bit emotionless).
But as a personal preference, I thought it was the weak link of the show, and there were probably others who felt the same. Not everybody LOVES Fool to Cry, and there's a good chance that many casual fans don't even know it. Other than that small bump in the road, overall the show looked and sounded like a fantastic show especially opening with SFM- but my opinion is simply based on youtube video and reviews I've read.
