Most critics and fans say A Bigger Bang is their best album in ages. This is, allegedly, the Bigger Bang tour. Yet they have gone from only four ABB songs per night to only three. Back of My Hand hasn't been played forever, and It Won't Take Long made a few token appearances then faded away.

It's obvious the Stones listen to their fans to a certain extent, so let's all raise our voices and ask that they play more songs from the new album! I think five would be the minimum acceptable amount. What say you, IORR people?

I'd add Laugh I nearly died, Let me down slow and Under the Radar to the shopping cart

Yeah Let Me Down Slow & Laugh would be very good I think! Great album IMO James

I agree 100%!!!

Maybe we should get a little more violent - perhaps sacrifice one IORR poster per week until our demands are met?

I'll volunteer first- take me out back and shoot me!!!!!!!!

I agree 100% too. I want SOL, Rough Justice, SSMC, a keith tune, ONNYA and like either BOMH or IWTL everynight. Period. Show the audience u kick ass. do it!

And OPEN UP WITH ROUGH JUSTICE!!!! Forget JJF, SMU and BS! Open with a new tune. The crowd goes wild when u come on stage, why not open with a new tune??? U2, the Boss, Aerosmith, Elton, they all do it! And I've been there and ppl still go crazy. Do it! Rought Justice baby!

I juat imagine myself going to a deep purple show. i would expect to hear 75% hits/back catalogue but wouldn't mind if they played 25% new material. who knows, i might even like the new stuff! but if not i would not be offended. i have no idea if they are even together and/or have a new album, but you all get the point!

StonesTod, lay down on the virtual alter so we can commit virtual Hari Kari on you! Then we will commit Harry Carey on you. Hope you are a Cubs fan!

It was OK back in 78 to play the whole album live, it was a bit hit. But now? I don't think so.

If the Stones did what the audience wanted, they would have worn Beatle haircuts and Beatle boots in 1964. And sang pleasant little ditties they thought your mum would like. The Stones lead, the audience follows! And the audience later claims they thought it was cool all along!

Yeah, at least 5 songs. A setlist with 8 or 9 songs off ABB would be awesome. This is the ABB tour after all. And I wish they would play more than 20 songs.

These songs should be played every night:

Rough Justice
Oh No, Not You Again
Streets Of Love
Rain Fall Down
Infamy


An this songs should be changed among each other often:

Driving Too Fast
Dangerous Beauty
Laugh, I Nearly Died
Sweet Neo Con
Back Of My Hand
It Won't Take Long
This Place Is Emty
Let Me Down Slow

I am not really a fan. I just have some money to spend on a concert ticket. I want
to hear Brown Sugar and You Can't Always Get What You Want.

Have heard some of ABB live - but really want to hear Laugh, I Nearly Died (have they done this one live yet?)

If you read the reviews you will notice that people in the crowd are getting quiet every time they play a new song. Also I don't think they have rehearsed every new song but sure it would be great to get them all!

Came to think of it -- as they move back to the main stage they play Honky Tonk Women -- a song I have heard so many times -- and the crowd go more and more crazy every time for this song. If they played Rough Justice in that position the show would simply get slower. And we don't want too many slow shows do we?

In spite of the arguments of bv i think they should show that they are proud of their new material and "accoustom" the audience to their new songs!

It should be at least 5 songs of ABB (including Keith´s)

These songs should be played every night:

It Won't Take Long
Oh No, Not You Again

An this songs should be changed among each other often:

Driving Too Fast
Laugh, I Nearly Died
Rough Justice
Rain Fall Down
Infamy

5 Songs minimum!
Back of my hand / Rough Justice/ ONNYA/ Under the Radar/ Rain fall down.

Stand by the albums boys, be proud of it, and promote it on the Tour thats supposed to doing just that.

They should be opening with Rough Justice and setting the tone from that moment on.

They should play more once they leave the U.S. soil. Not sure how that's gonna pan out.

Rough Justice is such a great song. It amazes me that they are not playing this at every show. In particular, I can't understand why they would play YGMR, which is in a similar vein but inferior, at the expense of RJ.

I was under the impression that a new tour is usually to voice a new album. So it does seem strange why the Stones (at present) don't play so many songs from their great new album. Keep fingers crossed ah!

Damn! We came this close to actually getting our moderator to complain! I think we're getting closer!
