You believe all the people the Stones were hanging with in the 70s were better people, regarding sex with underaged girls?

I think they were playing Sympathy every night that tour...they probably dropped Love is Strong for the duets with Robert Cray and Bo Diddley.

Yep, according to the Setlist November 1994: [iorr.org] .
Interesting. I only looked at the IORR set list tab for November and saw Sympathy had been played every show that month leading up to the PPV. Didn't realize they started the tour not playing it.Quote

You’re right. Sympathy relaxed love is strong

They actually added Sympathy about 10 weeks into the tour but kept Love Is Strong...it was only for the PPV that they dropped LIS.
Looks like the song was essentially dropped starting with the Australia/New Zealand leg. It was played at most shows in North/South America in '94/early '95.Quote

They only performed it twice on the euro leg in 1995. When they finally played it in Norway in 1998, I was in the US. Missed it! Hope they'll play it one day..

It's a great album song with a GREAT video, but it didn't entirely work live. Maybe it's too atmospheric and sparse...it just doesn't have enough drive, particularly on a big stage.
Ha, that MTV performance is what got me into the Stones in the first place. I can still remember watching it as a teenager and thinking, "Damn, these skinny old guys ROCK!"Quote

Agreed. They made it work here (on a smaller stage), though (imo).

Love is Strong. Stones, maybe, last attempt to sound contemporary. Probably a Mick song. I know that many likes this song. I'm not one of those.

WTF is wrong with you?you think the Stones and the people they hung out with were no better than a guy who drugged and raped a kid?
If I thought that I sure wouldn’t be anywhere near their fan site that’s for sure.SMH
Anyway,they should use the vault series for something rare,that Miami pay per view was ok but there were way better shows on voodoo.
I was at both those Vegas shows and either of them would have been a better choice.
They were doing stadiums and MGM was 13,500 and their first time playing in LV,epic shows.

Miami 1994.....it was a real letdown back in 94/95 when the bootlegs came out, due to the soundquality, the speech by Whoopy, the playing/mood (no mood) and the hopes I had, when reading the setlist in Basement News.
And I understand that New Orleans 1994 was ruined on the broadcast, due to some mistake by the engineers.....but why on earth broadcast Miami 1994 on the TV as it sound like it does?
Even though the band ain't exactly in overdrive, the official Voodoo Lounge Video from East Rutherford 1994 was the only one I ever gave more than 3 spins out of the first couple of 94/95 bootlegs.

yes and no. although horrible in sound and NYC94 being much better in sound, I remember the huge upgrade in playing compared to the tour start I witnessed in
Washington DC.
of course, not to compare to the huge upgrade in sound and performance in 1995.
on the VL Tour they just got better and better, being at the top in july 1995.

Yeah, 1995 was amazing. Never understood why they didn't record any of those shows. Same could be said for the Bridges to Babylon.

Sorry, I should have said European Tour. You can add other SBDs like Tokyo (my favorite) and some more South America cities too.
