This is business. No promoter/investor would offer the the Stones who demand a million/bandmember a contract without a warhorse-heavy setlist guaranted. If we are lucky they will throw in a few gems rarely heard before but I don´t bet on that. Crazy Mama, Lies, Just My Imagination, something like that, hardly anything from SW, VL, BTB, ABB imo. No chance for new unreleased songs, imo. They will of course stick to the concept that has been successful for the last 30 years. Keith is talking much when he has a microphone in front of his face and not all what he says becomes real. They are not going to change the setlist very much each night, not at their age, not with an audience demanding warhorses, not with promoters demanding warhorses, not with their rather limited musical skills. Be happy with what you get and stay away if you dont appreciate their formula. It´s about money and not about the wishes of some die-hard fans.

Or just that Keith is rambling with the usual bs. Let's be honest people, we know what songs we're gonna get. It's not going to be a radical, fresh set list. But it sure as hell will be fun if you're there.

If they want to mix up the setlist they will, if they don't they won't. Most people going are going to see 1 show, yes just one. They want to see certain songs and will be disappointed if they don't. People on here are the exception, the band's setlist is not for us.

The fans are an exception? So, they do not play for the fans? What the fans want is irrelevant? Okey, time for the fans to go on strike then. Fans of the Rolling Stones unite!
We demand less predictable setlists! Did you hear that, Knight Commander?

We people on here are nerds, not just fans. Fans want Satisfaction. We hope for obscure B-sides
