> Keith has said that he sometimes tries to push Mick to not be so conservative with the set list.

Who is conservative here? Keith played until a few days only The worst and Infamy.

I don't want to moan about setlists, because of what I've heard so far on boots, they sound good, but I also don't understand why they don't play more from ABB.

I'm not one of those to bitch about their setlists,
but I can't understand why they haven't thrown
SSMC into it yet. I assume/hope they will eventually!
It's just a fun and funny song, it rocks, and it's
easy to play.

Fully half of Keith songs are brand new.

That's a diplomatic way to put it, kind of British politeness: "Excuse me, but I fear I did not
quite get the point yet why ABB must be underrepresented. Could you please explain once
more?"

thats bollocks and you know it. The typical "everything's black and white" non-answer

if the height of your expectations of a band of the Stones' calibre is them playing the same greatest hits set from one tour to the next just to be a jukebox for a few non-fans then its your loss

Some of us have higher standards. Thankfully last night they started to raise their own a bit. Long may it continue.
