Thanks DP

Watching the Youtube clips - this is a PHENOMENAL show. Setlist, performances, sound, one of those nights where everything clicked. Truly special.

I think they just dropped SFM for once to make room for Rocks Off (now there would be a good opener if they were brave enough to do it, but they don't play it often enough to be confident of it) and they will probably stick to SFM from now on.

Interesting thought Green Lady, do you reckon they are very similar? I have never thought about that. I always think the Berry-esque originals in standard tuning (IORR, Starf**ker, Rocks Off, Neighbours, She Was Hot, ONNYA) are similar to each other.

But we've often had IORR together with one of the others through the years

And to think so many people were ready to write them off.

Glad they are proving the doubters wrong. (And I'm the first to admit I had my share of doubts!)

I did too. But straight out of the gate this show floored me. LSTNT is an inspired opener, I think my favourite intro song since Not Fade Away on the VL tour - it was as though they are paying direct homage to their past and to Charlie, but bringing it bang up to date with terrific guitars, speed and energy - it sounded like a modern garage rock song. Just wonderful.

19th Nervous Breakdown, Rocks Off, straight into Get Off Of My Cloud - are you kidding me? This has got to be the strongest opening salvo of their entire career. Everything sounded razor sharp and delivered with genuine conviction and attitude. Best they've sounded for years. The rest of the set was terrific but man, those opening four songs- genuine chills.

Three songs off Between The Buttons!

VIP's had the option of picking up wristbands and VIP sticker prior -
I know a few friends who had VIP/wristbands picked up the day before, and then waited at the entry gate all day ready to make a beeline to the front where the indeed ended up.

I’m one of those - lol

Did anyone catch what Mick said after he mentioned that he was at the show? He mumbled something, then said "I read that wrong."

I wonder whose name he was supposed to say?

It was a joke

Yes, his staff writes up some location jokes for him which they post on the teleprompter. They probably meant to say Michael Douglas who’s a Big fan and lives there. Father Kirk has died.

Oh I know the show is scripted down to the minutiae— I had side stage seat at MSG a few years back and could read the teleprompter. I was surprised he even had stage instruction in there: “dance to the right of state”

I was just wondering if any one deciphered what he said as he realized he faux pas.

Maybe Mick was watching Spartacus
as a way to relax before the show ......

Let's wait our Anti-Jagger KKK club to have their say.

Ace In The Hole .... a fave
Wilders message way ahead of its time ....

"I don't go to church. Kneeling bags my nylons." Agreed, Terry. It's a classic Wilder film.

Also, it's Douglas, not Douglass.

Near the end of Satisfaction, Mick said softly into the mic, "thank you for everything", or something like that...never heard him say that. The band played 8 more bars of Satisfaction and the show ended with all the usual hoopla.

Don't know how many times Keith has sang SA but he still sings it like he means it.

Steve Jordan & Keith kick start an extended end, this is just great enthusiasm.

On Thursday Mick and Keith shared a special moment of camaraderie that I believe was spontaneous because they did nothing similar on Sunday night. I was lucky enough that they did this right in front of me as I was filming Keith during Satisfaction. No idea why I stopped filming when I did, but I caught enough of this special interaction between these two band mates. I will post in Sunday’s thread too in hopes more of you can enjoy it.

The way they're all looking at Mick, that harping must be really bad.......... [iorr.org] ....
