I saw the 78 tour in Buffalo on July 4, the greatest American holiday, still have the stub, but I remember being disappointed because I felt like they played too much from Some Girls.
Another thing that sucked was that they started the show in the afternoon, which it was a beautiful day but this is a band that must be seen in the evening if outdoors.
Still Life had its moments, Imagination is one of the best songs on the cd IMO, especially if played loud, buts whats with the vocals? Mick's voice sounds way over dubbed. His vocals on this cd have a different sound than any other live record I've heard.
I saw the 81 tour in San Diego, with a bunch of sailors, my brother, and a cousin who said his mom took him to the stones in Buffalo in 1964 with the Beach Boys. I remember standing in a long line in the blazing October sun drinking a gallon of homemade mojo. By the time I got to the gate I was hammered. They had to carry me to the field, thanks for general admission, luckily George Thorogood and J. Geils helped me to sober up. I think I recall Mick saying that it was their first night show of the tour. I had a great time.
