I voted Far Away Eyes

Voted Far Away Eyes as well, but betting Wild Horses gets the popular vote.
I am able to vote multiple times using a private window.. if others are as well, we should try an experiment here to see if we're able to affect the vote.

I'll start.. I'm going to vote Far Away Eyes at least ten times.. anyone else?
(another round of all great choices though)

Far Away Eyes

I would bet that it ends up being Sweet Virginia, as hasn't been played yet and wasn't played last time, where Wild Horses, Far Away Eyes, and Dead Flowers were.

For context, Let it Bleed was playing in Charlotte while Shine a Light was a choice for the vote and played last time.

These song-votes aren’t very adventurous, are they? It seems to be the same old, same old, selections all the time. It’s be nice to see a compiled list of all the different songs that have been up for selection. Is there one somewhere?

Let It Bleed

Far Away Eyes for me.

I was really hoping that maybe Loving Cup would be an option for Nashville when 2020 tour was announced.

Maybe would have been if not for circumstances (new band working to gel together with Steve Jordan) etc.

Wild Horses and Let it Bleed have already been played. Love Dead Flowers but they did it last time in Nashville, so...I went with Sweet Virginia!

Haven’t seen Sweet Virginia so I voted for it.

Hey, I always wanted to bring this up and you are the person. When Mick was "driving home early Sunday morning" I always wondered if he went to Bakersfield to see Buck Owens. Mr. Owens had his own performance hall there and I don't know if it was in the 70's or not.

I would love to see/hear them do Prodigal Son ............

That was 1969 !

Time for it to make another appearance !

[ I want to shout, but I can hardly speak ]

I voted for Faraway Eyes, but it could be rigged for Dead Flowers if Brad Paisley is in the offing.

It's terrible that people on another continent can vote for something they won't experience live!

I voted Far Away Eyes lol

Seems like I'm the only one voting Dead Flowers (though I like all of these).

Stop the count!

Let It bleed

I voted "Memo From Turner".

If Wild Horses wins I revoke my fandom but I'll still do the rest of the tour, begrudgingly, since I already have tickets.

Voted many times for Sweet Virginia.
3 of those 5 were played in 2015 (in a row, patronizingly)
And we got Let It Bleed in Charlotte

Voted FAR AWAY EYES.
Never heard it live.

But gonna vote again for Sweet Virginia as a failsafe.

(Mostly I'm relieved we'll probably be spared another Angie.)

I notice nobody's being offered hard rockers. There are fewer of those this tour. In DC in 2019 we were offered, and took, Rocks Off.

In 2021 the songs they have to keep up a fast pace straight through are down to just SFM, JJF, and Satisfaction. The other warhorses being played are slower tempo'ed or else are extended, with breathing space in the drawn-out parts. (Although, granted, Mick mostly has to keep moving physically in those stretches.)

What I've loved most about the Stones, though, is the balls-out rockers... of which they have a lot. But now are playing fewer of... an accommodation to age and the stamina that those would require.

hope for far away eyes but wild horses will win
guess we'll find out tomorrow what they play in the soundcheck

Just do them all.

At least the vote can't be rigged this time.

Back in 1997, during the early days of this new thing called the "world wide web", they did the song vote on the B2B tour. With 100% certainty, I rigged the vote and got them to play She's A Rainbow in Miami.

Their vote site in 1997 was extremely primitive. I just keep refreshing and re-voting over and over again.

And each time you did, the little tongue logo meter next to your song would go up. I must have voted for She's A Rainbow 5,000 times. Each time, the meter just kept going up and up and up. The 2nd place song was a long distance away. When they showed She's A Rainbow on the screen at the Miami show, I don't think I ever laughed so hard in my life.

Huh.... what a dirty sneeky great trick ....



ROCKMAN

I voted for Faraway Eyes, but all 5 songs are fine for me, love them all!

I am going for Far Away Eyes as well.

I noticed Fool To Cry has not made it back to the list of choices.
