Haven’t seen any comments about this, so maybe my ears were playing tricks on me, but did anyone notice Mick forgot the words to Jumping Jack Flash when he tried to sing the first verse. There was an awkward moment and then they jumped right into “It’s Alright Now…”
It's funny to read that as I was just ponndering the guitar/technical glitches that plauged the opening of the Memphis show.
I was flashing back to a post gig conversation I had with a friend of mine who also went to the show. We were talking about ticket grosses and the Stones' rumored $million$ concert performance guarantee. My friend was astute enough to observe "A million bucks a show and they still can't keep Keith's guitar plugged in???"
I sighed a knowing sigh, as we both knew he was really on target. I demanded he pull over and slapped him violently for being so right. I got out of the car to walk back to my hotel but was sure to kick a dent in his car as he drove away.
I think he did the same for BITCH in Houston. The band and Mick were at 2 different parts of the song and Mick just kept singing, "you got the... you got the..." It happens.
