Of course we all wish for news about Keith, Micksbrain.

Whatever it will be it will be boring.

Whenever /whereever it is - meanwhile I´d take ANY @#$%& setlist.

I wouldn't be surprised if doctors told Keith not to overexert himself, at least at a couple of first shows (whenever and wherever they might be) so The Stones would reduce their setlist to 17-18 songs, with one Keith's song possibly. Maybe a short acoustic set (on b-stage) would be a good solution too?

best setlist ever seen ! congratulations, you should show it to mick and keith ; it would be the best stones concert ever !!!!!

Brussels, ? , Stade Roi Baudouin

Yes, that would mean that my deal with the devil has finally paid off. I would probably be whisked off to forever burn in hell shortly thereafter.

Gazza, you COULD actually get 22 songs on opening night because we did in Boston but it wasn't long before it went to 21 and then 20. They tend to try out the " surprise songs" like DOO DOO Heartbreaker on opening night but that was never to be heard again! I predict at least 22 opening night and the next night as well with potentially 2 different songs from ABB and some gems like " I Got The Blues"and maybe "Under MY Thumb" or " Out Of Control". I wonder if they'll do " She's So Cold" in Europe or " Undercover".

Flowerchild, up there you mentioned CYHMK...
They rehearsed it a few times in the States, didn't play it yet, but who knows?
What a treat that would be, eh?

More than a prediction, this is part of what I would like to hear and I think have some possibilities to be played in Europe. (I Know they will not play 23 songs)

raoul duke; that was beautiful...if only...
but we know the relative chances of that, don't we?
i wish you were their col. tom and could push that thru tho.
as inspired, bright and interesting a set list as i can remember...
tho, of course...EVERYONE, probably including you...
would always think of ONE more u missed...
like damn man...
where's
dance little sister?
;-)

Dan, only 1 ABB song??? Haha. I know they seem to not want to promote this album, but I still bet they'll do at least 3 a night, which IMO, isn't near enough. I say 4 minimum but they should be doing 5-6 ABB songs wtih at least one song from the 90's and a 22 song setlist minimum. I paid $75/seat for nosebleed in Colubmus. i deserve at least 22 songs.
