The Worst.
Yes, GC was really overcrowded. It was almost impossible when we moved from GC to Pit B: Thousands of people were entering GC through a small bottleneck entrance. A crush occoured, some fainted and needed medical attention. Many, myself included, had to jump over barriers to avoid the crush. Two security people from Stones' own staff came and were not impressed by the local security: they directed and ordered the local staff what to do next; they opened fences and gates to let people in GC through the stands and other ways before shutting down entrance to GC from Keith's side and rather opening a new entrance on Ronnie's side. After some wait and struggle we finally got inside the pit. I only hope those who collapsed in the crush are allright and got the see/enjoy the show.

What's that round the 2:35-mark and the 4:30-mark, then?
Seriously, it's good to see (and hear!) weaving like this again! I'm not sure how you missed that, 35Love (or didn't I get you here)?

Already the debrief ": the Rolling Stones at the Vélodrome de Marseille, solid like rock
It's been fifteen years since we came here to play. But do not worry, it's always the same songs. "Mick Jagger did not lack humor on Tuesday night, at the Stade Vélodrome in Marseille for the monster concert of the Rolling Stones.It must be said that if the production of the group superstar preferred the Phocean City in Lyon for the only French concert of this extension of the "No Filter Tour", it is not the result of chance.
It's already been several years, and especially since MP-2013, that the cultural wind blows in the sails of the southern city. Above all, since 2016 and a naming contract, the arena of Olympic players has seen its capacity boosted to 67,000 seats. Having become second national stadium, the Orange Velodrome can now attract as much the inhabitants of the Mediterranean basin, as the Italians and the Spaniards, shunned of this tour.
But what makes the Stones roll again?
If you have fun counting the ages of the leader Mick Jagger, guitarists Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood as well as metronome Charlie Watts, the friends accumulate on stage not less than 295 years. Add to that the 55-year career in his trunk, and the bolide Stones is a case study in terms of longevity.
"The Rolling Stones are immortal, just listen to their many hits that speak to all generations, and then it's a moment of sharing with my dad, 59, for whom this band is iconic. pretext to find us in concert ", explains Sophie, 20 years old.
And some great music, there was that evening at the Vélodrome, first with the introduction "Street fighting man" quickly followed by "Paint it black", "Start me up", "Miss you" or "Gimme Shelter". And even when the majority of titles was slowed by 10 BPM, to allow Keith Richards, lacking dexterity in recent years, not to be too confused on his Fender Telecaster 50's.
At the end of the grandiose show and the rhythmic pyrotechnics of "Satisfaction", the quartet salutes the hypnotized Marseille audience one last time. Behind him, four gigantic screens are adorned with the mythical language of the group, accompanied by the message "See you soon". Really ?
