I think Living In A Ghost Town is the true rarity - I think it’s the only song performed that Charlie has never played in concert.

Real headscratcher how they never bothered to acknowledge the contents of the bonus disks on stage (could have played When You're Gone, Plundered My Soul, Claudine, Criss Cross etc) but when they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel they decide to try that one?

I did a spreadsheet of the ten shows I've seen between 1975 and 2019, and I was pleasantly surprised to find I had seen 82 different songs! My favorite gems were "Crazy Mama," "Route 66," "Moonlight Mile," and "Don't Stop," which I still love ant think is underrated.

Great point. I really enjoyed that one in Nashville.

Damn - busted! I deleted that when I realized that Charlie likely didn’t play live on Trouble’s A Coming either. I used to have a semblance of a brain…

I understand the need to promote "new" product, but how many bands can afford not to play so many #1 hits?

Don't Stop during the Licks tour was mildly entertaining to put it politely as it really isn't that good of a song to begin with - it's basically "Stones-Lite", and it quickly wore out it's welcome imo.
The greatest treats during Licks were all the rarities/obscurities that were played at the club and theater shows - whether cover tunes or originals, all of them were much better than Don't Stop.

Saw it in Charlotte. I felt there were other, better songs to play.

I would have loved to have seen the band play Fiji Jim, a track, with its re-worked vox, which I opine to be worthy of inclusion in any discussion of the band's great songs. Listen to the riffs, the "weaving", Charlie & Bill, and not to mention the most-inspired vocal performance from Jagger on a "core-style" Stones' rocker in eons. At a recent gathering of a few "hard-core" Stones' fans and collectors, I played it, and all agreed that Fiji Jim is worthy.
Elmo, wish you'd've gotten this one in Charlotte!
