I love the setlists ...
Ugh! It drives me crazy! I can't stand their setlists. Not that I don't love the songs, just that it never changes, for the most part. The ones on "every show" have been that way for years now! TAKE THEM OUT! ALL OF THEM!
To how many shows have you been so far, this year?

5 so far. None of them Stones however, my last show attended was Steve Earle. I don't go to see Stones anymore, I think 2002 was my last one ... due to price and more importantly the set-lists.
In my 5 shows, I did not hear JJF, HTW, Brown Sugar, and I somehow still enjoyed myself, as did the crowds!

Great that you enjoyed the concerts of other bands you heared this year. I have attended three Stones shows this year so far and I enjoyed myself as well! As other hundreds of thousands did - although (or because!?) they played some of their greatest hits.

Great, glad you enjoyed yourself. But I have my own question ... if on the 2nd or 3rd show, if they did not play Brown Sugar & Honky Tonk Women, and instead played ... (just picking out random tunes) Crazy Mama & Monkey Man, would you have enjoyed it more or less?

The thing is: In the seventies they had almost the same setlist on tours. But the setlist varied between tours and they had new songs to fill in with.
So the setlist was relatively fresh between tours. Warhorse were fewer (and a lot younger of course). Surely less than 50 percent (as opposed to 85 percent now).

Maybe I'm too realistic that it just can't happen because lots of people in the stadium are there for just this show. Most of them. But I also got some great rarely played songs: Shattered, Neighbours, Fool To Cry, The Worst, Wild Horses, Under my Thumb, She's A Rainbow. Great! And I hope they keep on doing this. I would love to hear Sister Morphine, CYHMK or maybe Rough Justice. But I also love JJF, MR, Miss You...
I would not enjoy a show without warhorses because it's always great to her 60.000 people singing "I'm Jumping Jack Flash ist a gas gas gas" and "...pleased to meet you...!"

I’d go, LeonidP. But I’d also want to hear Memo From Turner.

JJF, that was not a regular in '73 or '75.

It was. They finished a majority of the 1975 tour with Jumpin' Jack Flash.
In 1973 they played Jumpin' Jack Flash every show.

We know the order by now. Three interchangeable songs in the first third of the gig. From then on the usual suspects. 85 percent warhorses, 15 percent variation.
What's the point speculating in something that is not going to happen?
