I've given up paying huge dollars for bands playing strictly the oldies with no valid new material in years or decades.

I'm still a fan of their music but I don't think I'd pay big bucks or travel for them anymore. My last show in 2019 was fantastic & I'd rather leave it at that. I took my friend who had never seen them & she was impressed. It's not really my Stones anymore without Charlie. Their sound has changed considerably without him & the guitars are so heavily processed it's hard for me to hear what they're actually playing. As someone who has hands like Keith it amazes me that he can play at all anymore. Actually, my concert days may be ending soon because of health issues. Looks like I've got some really major surgery on my spine coming by the end of the year. Got the news this week. I have to go through a lot of hoops before it can happen but if I don't do it I'm looking at a wheelchair for sure. I may still end up in one or dead with the surgery but I'm going to take the chance. I don't make long term plans for concerts & such anymore.

Very sorry to hear CR. I hope it all works out better than you think. I was also at the Seattle show in 2019...fantastic. I was only joking about the 'stones fan' thing, but I'm sure you realized that.
