for me it has been five.....so far.....

with a sixth show lined up for sunrise on march 12.


have been to:

miami - 10-17
tampa - 10-19
anaheim - 11-4
hollywood - 11-8
san diego - 11-11

tough to pick a best show of these 5.....some personal highlights:

miami was rockin.....the stones always seem to get more energy out of the miami crowd than when they play in ft. lauderdale (sunrise)

tampa was not the best of these shows but i was front row for the b-stage....which made it a highlight......

anaheim was on a chilly evening and ronnie didn't feel like playing.....but mick was on fire.....and keith was helping him out.....

the hollywood bowl was an incredible place to see the stones....i just watched them and thought to myself....i can't believe i am watching the stones play the hollywood bowl!!the debut of as tears go by really made a special night even more special....

in san diego they simply went out and rocked the house out......they were on and they knew it....seeing them really strut their stuff was very cool.

looking forward to the final show of the north american leg of the tour in march.....

i feel very fortunate this tour...but i am sure many of you have been to even more shows than me......would be interested in your impressions of what you saw.

alright.....on with the show!!!

Baltimore will be 4th stop on this tour and I gotta say, while you can ALWAYS bitch about set lists, I have not yet seen one duplicated.

I have been to Columbus - Debut of SWAY and MR PITIFUL kick ass as did opening with Brown Sugar.

Duram - BIG STADIUM SHOWS ARE ALWAYS FUN, plus a mini Sticky Fingures set.

Charlette - Small venue was very intimate and I had nice seats.

I love the ABB tour.


CANT WAIT FOR BALTIMORE
I wish I wish I wish they play Worried About You in Baltimore.

Seven shows.
Boston 1/15 was the best of the bunch!!

to the original poster:

not to get off topic but best show i have ever seen in south florida was at orange bowl (being born and raised in pompano beach-first show for me ever was gator bowl in 1975 rufus with chaka khan-j geils band who stole the show-atlanta rythym section) B2B tour in 97 third eye blind-smashing pumkins-dave mathews band. nice weather change as i am in ct now.
great show. great crowd and great seats third row ronnies side between ronnie and center ramp. it was also first time ronnies side in a looong time and for whatever reason last time ronnies side. i usually end up on keiths side and not always by choice.shows i have seen this tour.

opening nite fenway
hartford ct (excellent show)
msg 1/13/05
giants stadium
boston 1/15/06
msg 1/20/06

each show of course had it's own special moment... boston 1/15/06 i loved but msg 1/20/06 was best to date for me as my daughter and i "found" in our tshirt bag (see reviews post for story at rocksoff) a fanasylum pass which we swapped each 3 or 4 songs allowing us to view from 4th row. we already had good seats albeit back of msg section 96 first rowm off floor. well centered and nice sound.

Just 2 so far, MSG 19/20 Jan.

At the moment, will be going to Wembley 1&2, Glasgow, Sheffield and Cardiff. Hoping to do Barcelona too.

two in New York this month - five to come in Europe (Berlin, Nice, London x 2, Glasgow)

Each tour from 1982 onwards I've been to more shows than on the previous tour. This is the first tour where I've decided to go to reduce the number I go to (I went to 4 in the US and 9 in the British Isles on Licks)

Björnulf?

6 shows

2 Fenway Park shows in Boston
Hartford( great show)
2 shows Fleet Center Boston
NYC on 1-20-06

I've attended 4 in person (two more to go in '06). Meanwhile, I've attended ALL the setlists!

Saw three US shows last year.
Have planned to attend a handful shows in Europe.

Seven so far! The opening 2 in Fenway,( Boston,) Hartford, Albany, New York, Two in Philly in October and the Jan 13 show in Boston! The Hartford and Albany shows and the Philly shows were all A+ but truthfully there were no sub-par shows that I've seen, all excellent!

hartford, chi-town sept,MSG 3 times and Memphis...6

I have attended:

Boston 8/21

Boston 8/23

Hollywood Bowl 11/6

Hollywood Bowl 11/8

SBC Park San Francisco 11/13 (with onstage box seat)

SBC Park San Francisco 11/15 (7th row center)

Denver 11/24 (Thanksgiving, and I'm still trying to get the shirt from that show)

Madison Square Garden 1/18

Madison Square Garden 1/20

Future: (hopefully) both London shows and another(s) in Germany and/or France

Very difficult to say which was the best one, but two of the best were Denver and MSG 1/18 (for me anyway, not necessarily the same as saying these two were the best in terms of how the band was playing).

As for Bjornulf, he told me last week in NYC that he has seen "most" of the shows so far. I will let him detail them, but I suspect he won't.

Tim from Montana

3

D.C. 10/3/05
Tampa 10/19/05
MSG 1/20/06

MSG 1/20/06 was the best IMHO. After the first 2 shows, 1/20/06 far exceeded my expectations.

Zip. Too much $ for me.

money-trees barren...only one: Hollywood Bowl 11/08.......practically in my backyard

Sadly, only one. Toronto, Sept.26/05 It's all I can afford.

Opening night @ Fenway
Bomb scare night @ Charlottesville
On Stage box @ Durham
Side stage this Wed. @ Baltimore...can't wait!!

milwaukee
chicago soldier field - on stage box
pittsburgh - on stage
durham on stage - with "forestones" if i have his identity correct?
san diego on stage
chicago - united center 1st show - B stage
chicago - 2nd show - side stage - love this view!
st. louis - side stage again!

I decided to limit myself to one show stateside (Houston) this time, cost being a factor. Was hoping to be in Europe later this year, but decided to go in March/April instead. If they come back to the states as rumoured, I'll make it two then.

columbus
toronto
pittsburgh (onstage)
hershey
washington
charlottesville
durham
philly I

8 so far

up next with europe

Hi Stones Junkies,

I've seen four so far:

San Diego
Phoenix
Montréal
MSG, 20 January 2006

I liked the MSG show the best. I think San Diego was the next best with Montréal coming in at a close third. I was thrilled to see them bust out "Happy" again when I was in Montréal at Bell Centre. That song never gets old to me...

Charles Baudelaire
1821-1869

3 in chicago.

Six so far.

Calgary
Seattle
Portland
Salt Lake City
Denver
Glendale (Phoenix)

Six or eight more to go.

Germany or the British Isles.
Still thinking...

Three. Opener in Boston, Milwaukee, and Chicago last Monday.

Hartford (on stage)
Boston 1/13

I enjoyed Boston much better than the on stage seats. I am glad I did it, but I left the stadium feeling empty looking at their backs all night. I also missed the stage effects being on stage.

Correct you are.
