What a show...
My highlight, I was very close in the seats just behind the pit and I saw Patti Hansen talking to some people in the back of the pit while just in front of me. I asked for a pic of us, she abliged and smiled gracefully for our pic.

Something I will keep forever!

Did anybody.notice Mick holding the mic stand for Paint it Black, the same he did back in 66 for the Ed Sullivan show.

It's never been a greater shame that a tour has to end.

Keith in particular appears more focussed and energised than he has for more than twenty years !

Absolutely agree, plus he's really enjoying playing with the band again, i hope they do more shows this year.
It's a dream Keith does some Wino's shows, you never know.

there's also the slim but more likely possibility of shows in south america/australia at the end of the year or beginning of the next

We need a live release from this tour at the earliest opportunity.

I know there are various things mitigating against an early release ...but it doesn't stop me wishing .

My daughter joined me for the tour in LA, and came to the show in Santa Clara. She did some videos. What I was amazed about, was the screen graphics. I do rarely watch videos, as long as they are still touring, and I am rarely outside the pit area, unfortunately. When you are in the pit, you don't really see all the graphics, but with zoom out and zoom in in a video, you see the song as it is both from the pit, and from further away. Lots of burning fires and great graphics!

For more than thirty years !
He was less energised in 1995 !!!!!

What a fantastic last stadium show!!

The sound at Levi's was exceptional, as was the band, the setlist, the crowd..

So glad to have made this one.. a little bit last minute for me, with a lot of help from stones friends, I had a blast (dodged the bullet flying out early this am).

The opener in Houston was great, but they somehow managed to just get better and better every show,
What an amazing band, feeling really fortunate to have made some excellent shows this tour. Can't wait for the next one

thanks to your daughter for the video it's better then 60% of the videos shared from this tour

my favorite part of the sympathy graphics is the little imps marching along the top of the screen

my favorite graphics from this tour are for miss you in all there faux neon glory

I enjoyed the YouTube videos from this show. Keith is back on target, especially with his solos. I thought he sounded great on Sympathy. To my ears, Mick always seems to sing a little flat on Mess It Up, but otherwise the instrumentation sounds really nice. And it seems Bite My Head Off went well.

Faraway Eyes was magic. When Keith and Chanel come in for the backup it's just great...this should be a staple and I hope makes the live album.

Far away eyes on this tour seems to be the version Keith originally wanted the country song to be; serious. The way Mick originally sang the song in 1978 was "funny" and tongue-in-cheek. So eventually Keith got it his way, age helping.

saw the whole show video last nite. had a wonderful time hearing the stones

A highlight of the tour for me.. loved this more serious version with Keith more prominent on backup vocals live. They all seemed to really enjoy playing it.
Love Ronnie's pedal steel on this. Great song, even better without so much tongue in cheek.

Great show. Really enjoy the videos...here in Sweden. What a band! (But since you cant trust videos...I have been told...it was perhaps a show with no energy what so ever...and lots of mistakes and so on...)

I personally think the back and forth about the videos are misunderstood.

I agree that you really can't get a "feel" for the show without being there.

On the other hand, if you are not able to attend the show, watching a video is 2nd best.

Where I do disagree is that the videos will only be as good as the source. Using an I Phone with people yelling and screaming around you while there are other phones showing in front of yours is not the best representation of the show.

My 12-year-old niece watches videos of the shows and is very content but I do not watch the videos because they twist the memories I have of the show.

There is not much worse than being in the pit and having someone stand in front of you with their phone blocking the view.

If I may I'd like to just remind you guys of a time when the Stones went beyond space time.

I'm so happy for both of you also, Bjornulf. I take it this is the first time one of your children has come to the States for Rolling Stones shows?
I seem to remember your wife joining you over here, or was that only in Europe?

Sorry to miss you there.
