"Be careful, the sound is only good if the version is awesome. If the version is even the slightest bit critical, the sound is not good enough to judge."
Sorry to say that, powerage 78, but I 'm afraid that your sense of humour becomes
obsessed and a bit tiresome. And no, I don't believe that every new Stones gig is "the best ever" (to prevent your ironic obsession No 2). I just realize that their performances remain at an admirably high level. And they 're 78, right?

Waiting on some streams, but all I get is odd Stones Talk like on a boring iorr afternoon. Setlist, Bob Dylan, bla bla bla
LOL!! Yea, we all wait for streams who can't get through there...
Which gig are you going this tour? Would you try to stream the show for us? Mine will be Gelsenkirchen ...

Following the band too closely seemingly makes one's life miserable. Every gig always a disappointment.
One thing that seems to be forgotten in this stamp collecting culture in which a varied setlist is a value of its own is that any new song for the tour loses its impact pretty soon (after one or two performances). For example, the Stones playing "Out of Time" does not seem to excite people here any longer. But say, if one goes to see one show per tour or something like that (like I think quite many of even hardcore fans do), hearing that tune would be special and extraordinary, and something to look for. The same would go to "19th Nervous Breakdown" that despite making the set list last year in America isn't really a warhorse yet. I don't have an ability to see any of the shows this summer, but if I had I would love to hear those two tunes. They are like, say, "Under My Thumb", "Time Is On My Side" and "Let's Spend The Night Together" in 1981/82 tour, being so essential and peculiar to that tour. Actually if I look at five first tracks in this show, or any of this tour so far, they are pretty different compared to the tours in the past, only "Tumbling Dice" being a constant. Even "Street Fighting Man" had a holiday for years.

I will go to Waldbühne Berlin and Stockholm. But I have to admit: I am a bad streamer. Very focused on the stage.

True. And quite rightly so.
I'm confident that I can do both - maybe less jumping, but 100% listening and looking!

Good luck with the signal, waterrats. I'll be looking for you.

Having just walked around the entire freaking pitch to get into pit B, for the first time in my life I wish I was in pit A. JFC what a mess.

According to Twitter, Mick says "I went to the Marolles, eat a stoemp, had a Duvel and saw the Manneken Piss"
Sounds like Mick's standard imaginary tour-of-wherever-we-are.
