I would love to the Rolling Stones perform a show in a small auditorium with minimal sound equipment.

I would love to the Rolling Stones perform a show in a small auditorium with minimal sound equipment. Go back to basics as it was in 1962. Some amplifiers and other sound equipment. No flashy lights or other stage theatrics. I am aware that this will never happen for the simple reason that they will make no money and the planning logistics would be a nightmare. Maybe broadcast this type of show on some type of a pay view menu. Not the same as a live show and being there.
Just a thought.

Has anyone noticed the thread about Georgia’s 5 month old daughter is getting more views than this? That’s where we are, lol.

At this point in their lives as The Rolling Stones, my own view is that they've pretty much done everything there is to do .....
What could they come up with that they haven't in some form or other already done ? Nothing that comes immediately to mind, that's for sure !

The club shows are rare and almost unavailable to most fans. Phoenix, Trabendo, Echoplex and Fonda are the only one that comes to my mind, since 2005, i.e. four or so in 20 years. May be I forgot one. I don't count the private shows, as they are private, unavailable to normal fans. Also, I don't count the promotion show in NYC 2023, just a few songs for TV snd promotion purposes.
The club gigs during the Licks tour 2002-2003 were great, but they are large theatres of some 2,500 + capacity, just like Brixton academy was a club, but it takes 3,900 fans, similar to the Hard Rock Live show in Hollywood FL 2021, with 6,800 capacity.
They would never braodcast such a small show live. These real basic shows do not have any backup, no Bernard, no Tim, no carl, so it is just the core band, they do overdubs and "clean" the show before they publish it.
The small shows were for rehearsals purpose only, to get the first instant reaction on new songs. Mick used to say these shows are like one week of rehearsal.
I don't see any more club shows coming, but who knows, if a super rich person want to pay $5++ million for a 90 minutes rehearsals gig, then I am sure they might do it, but not for us, just for the super rich party people.
