Just run into some Stones crew in the Park'people.

Could't miss them.

One of was wearing a Led Zepelin tee shirt.

"This public may be a little cold, don't you think", he said.

ohhh i am really pining for a full-length in-depth documentary of the Stones in Shanghai - the whole trip, with sense-surround.
i lived there for a while and ... man, it's something else! say hello to it all for me, Joker, okay? i miss it real regularly.

>> Were you teaching in Shanghai, Ms. sssoul? Got any good stories to tell us? <<

it was a university job but not teaching. stories ... wow, yeah, but i need the sense-surround to really convey them.
i loved the place, and what a powerful experience it is - the street scenes and the strange strange light and the amazing sensuous weather
and all the smells and sounds and frogs and silk and jasmine and the insane psychedelic architecture and of course the Happy Sacrifice Chicken :E
and crossing the street amid the rush hour bicycles with my eyes closed because that's the best way to learn the mutual trust that Shanghai traffic depends on -
ahem, sorry! it's strong stuff, Shanghai. and it's so fine that the Stones are finally getting a taste of it. :E

I hope that someone is taping this show - just in case they replace a banned song with something new and/or different although,I doubt that they will.

I also doubt it; I'm expecting a shorter show than usual.

Eastern country's scare the shit out of me. The culture appears pretty close to the western culture. But when you look closely, it's completely different. They have some really strange customs. But it's very interessting, ofcourse.
