For those lucky people who have seen the guys during this current tour ,some questions:

1.WHICH is your favourite song from a gig you ATTENDED this tour
2.WHERE the gig was
3.And WHY you chose this song


Okay mine has to be Get off my cloud from the Rio gig.The reason being I think it sounds so fresh and revitalised,and its also the first time I have heard it live.

MR
Rio
Because it's MR

I think we did this already but:


Paint it Black / MSG 1/20/06/ words can't describe

Ain't Too Proud to Beg / MSG 1/20/06 /- never liked the song, didn't want to hear it, ended up being absolutely smoked in true Stones style.

Sway / MSG 1/20/06/ great song never heard live before

MR
CHICAGO 1/25
AWESOME!

She's So Cold

Fenway

The only real surprise in the set and they actually sounded like they were not just running through the same motions.


Honerable mention is Back Of My Hand.

Tumbling Dice
DC-MCI Center
Although its a warhorse, the way it starts with just Mick the great guitar, the horns jump in towards the end, Charlie pounding hard, then my fav part is Mick doing the high pitched wooo's with lisa and bernard. It always gives me chills.

"it`s only satisfaction" at

philly 1st

cause it was a differnt version,

but to be honest

dead flowers in toronto and durham, cause each time when i hear that song, i`ve to cry( i heard this song at my first concert, after being 6 years a fan, munich 90)

Fenway shows 8/05 & 1/06
Midnight Rambler - as powerful as any version I've heard live
Back Of My Hand - Ron, Mick, Keith all on slide/elctric, beautifully performed new blues they should have kept as a priority in setlists
Rain Fall Down - funky groove, good song, dark mood - very powerful
Out Of Control - I think the 1st night was the better of the 2, but it was a killer late set highlight, breaking up the string of old hits w/ a unique, late period piece that built in dynamism & intensity - audience dug it too.
Night Time is the Right Time - they do a great version, they clearly love playing it, & its the sort of cover they were born to do (live). Oh Yeah!

First Fenway & MSG 1/18

Fenway - Out Of Control - it was a total surprise, sounded great, and I hadn't seen it since '99. Probably my favorite Stones song of the last 20 years.

MSG - the following block:
Oh No Not You Again - new rocker, always welcome
Love Is Strong - complete surprise and a loud, sloppy version
Rocks Off - one of my top three, if not #1, Stones song. Best version I've heard since the Jan/Feb '73 boots
Worried About You - I'd never seen it live before, and it was a lot more dynamic than the 4 Flicks version; love RW's solo and MJ's falsetto & theatrics
Rain Fall Down - a breather; another new song that I'd never seen before
Midnight Rambler - seeing the Stones play this live is the pinnacle of rock n' roll
Tumbling Dice - carried the momentum from Rambler into a good groove
Gimme Shelter - smack dab in the middle of the intros. Slow, sleazy version.

The show could have ended there and I would have gone home happy.

Miss You San Diego 11/11/05 from onstage, all I heard was loud blaring guitars while getting a more behind the scenes view of how the B stage movement is handled.

I missed out on Waiting On A Friend,Sway,It Won't Take Long,Mr.Pitiful,Love Is Strong,Ain't Too Proud To Beg,and Worried About You despite going to eight shows this tour to try to avoid missing songs like those so,I can't include them in my review but,of the other songs played on this tour,honorable mention goes to :
As Tears Go By;Get Up,Stand Up;She's So Cold;the new songs,Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker);Dead Flowers;Midnight Rambler;Dead Flowers;Rocks Off;Start Me Up (1-15-'06)which took me by surprise;The Worst;and Live With Me.

I liked that little SWay number im MSG 1-20

"Night time" - absolutely awesome !!

SATISFACTION

Thief, I was amazed how much better Start Me Up sounded late in the set, & it wasn't just perception - they just rocked harder, tighter, yet w/ more abandon.

Loved "Brown Sugar" on the flatbed truck....

its been posted umteen times already, Hershey - shes so cold , my daughter was so excited they played it & she new i was filmin so shes yellin "turn this up, turn this up" im like cool it sweetheart ,thats her on backup also

You know the night time is the right time . . .

MSG 1/20/06 As Tears Go By - Great version, played tight, awesome vocals by Jagger, never heard live before

MSG 13/09/05 Slow and rumbling 19th Nervous Breakdown - so cool

Giants 15/09/05 She's So Cold from the B-Stage

She's So Cold
Sway
Worried About You

Midnight Rambler, Wild Horses

Rio de Janeiro

Two great songs, not that often played this tour on the most warhorses predicted show.

Screw the moaners, your just some jealous freaks who would have loved to be at the Copacabana beach like we did...

As tears Go By knocked me for six at MSG - even though I was kinda expecting to hear it that night

Most consistently well-performed songs - Midnight Rambler and Night Time

Dead Flowers in Houston is probably my favourite individual performance of the entire tour.

Of the new songs, I've enjoyed Rain Fall Down most times I've heard it (the abomination at the AMA show being an unfortunately high-profile exception). Back of My Hand was also very good..I hope they bring it back.

So far for me it must be She's So Cold

Midnight rambler and Rough justice
