Not sure if mick mentioned ventilator blues in st louis during LIAGT but he did in Charlotte,i just watched on you tube from uploader Jim powers at the 2:02 mark,I thought that was really cool..

Does he say "Ventilator Blues streaming on my phone"?

Here's hoping that was a teaser for Ventilator Blues actually getting sprung on us in a show.

Probably not. But one can hope. Mick did say they practiced 80 to 90 songs.

During the first verse (0:30 sharp) and onwards there's an acoustic guitar far in the left channel, might be a dobro??. It's not mentioned in track talk. Any guitarist hears he same, DP, Mathijs, or anyone else?

Yeah, there is one in there. I’m pretty sure we discussed it in track talk.

I think there are:

Main riff w/slide
Acoustic rhythm
Dobro with slide
Lead electric

I’d have to actually listen to tell you when they come in and where they’re at, this is just going from memory.

Also, somebody made a cool filtered track that highlighted the piano and the dobro.

Thanks, maybe it's being discussed about in another topic. Not on VB Track talk. It's the first time in my life today I noticed it.

The Jim Powers clip had better audio. Mick sings: "Ventilator Blues playing on my phone" (not "streaming on my phone"). My bad.

"Ventilator Blues" is also one of the Stones songs Bob Dylan, according to his own words, wished had written...

Dylan is very well known for talking bullsh*t to lead interviewers astray

True, but I think it is cool that he picks up a rather deep cut from EXILE (when asked what Stones songs he had wished written) ... He knows his Stones... Namely, that tune is not much discussed or known outside Stones hardcore fan circles (no matter how famous EXILE an sich is). I just wished the interviewer had asked furher, 'why that particular one?' (but probably he didn't know it himself.)

The other tunes I recall Dylan mentioning were "Wild Horses" and "Angie" - much more 'obvious' choices.

Did Mick sing the Ventilator-verse in Ghost Town last night?
