I love the intricate guitar intro to Gimme Shelter so much. But was that only possible as a studio creation? Could it be done live? (I've attended concerts and heard it live, I've watched videos of live performances, I haven't heard it the same as the original recording)

There are videos of random people doing in their bedrooms on YouTube. It's certainly possible.

Does or did KR use a guitar tuned in open-E live over the last tours? I guess he did when recording Gimme Shelter in the studio. The song can also be played in open-G, capoed on 2nd fret, no? Micawber or Sonny come to mind.
cheers, fillmore

The closest I have experienced this live (to the original recording) was when I saw the Counterfeit Stones a couple of years ago. They were magnificent.
Obviously it is easier in a small hall rather than a 60,000 seater stadium!

A lot of Keith's studio stuff is lightyning in a bottle. 36 straight hours and getting it perfect for the record and the next day he couldn't tell you where he put his fingers. Perspiration and inspiration.
