Erm, the Stones did a completely free gig this tour, didn't they?!

"Erm, the Stones did a completely free gig this tour, didn't they?"

No, they didn't. They played a show where they were VERY well paid...by the city. The fans paid in taxes...the band was well paid...just like the Staples gig & the SARS concert. The Stones do not do free gigs.

In that way, yes, but that same thing goes for U2 too..

I could care less about U2...I was talking about the Stones.

You're right.

Why are they doing this?

Well...

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

pay to hear brown sugar and jjf on the phone, ha, just throw on a boot from any tour since 89 and there is the version, and more than half of the remaining set list too

Don't subscribe to it, then.

duh , i think thats what i will do

What is the problem introducing new techology....
They don't do it because of money.....
Stones have always been ahead of new technology..... even if Heather Mills little baby, "Smiley Senile Macca", claims Stones are copying Stones / Macca all the time......
@#$%& Macca and @#$%& Beatles..... Stones rules..... let's drink tonight and forget what's all about....

indeed, if you arn´t interest don´t give a call
( itried it ,but i need a credit card, so maybe the next time)

I really don't see the outrage. $500 for floor tix to the Giants stadium, yeah, that's OUTRAGEOUS.
$1.99 to listen to the Stones live on another continent for 7 minutes, which makes it about $40 a concert, I can't see why it's pissing you guys off.
It's by essence for those who can't attend, i.e., those who didn't pay hundreds of $$$ for plane tix, concert tix etc.

If you guys weren't planning to go to Paris and listen to them, don't do it. I personnaly was pretty pleased to know I could get a glimpse of the concert for $3.98. Cheaper than a latte at Starbucks.

Now, don't start me on the $500 because that's over. I could afford it (credit cards...) but there's no way I'll spend that amount. It's plain indecency.

When will this stop. What has become of my beloved Stones ?

I rename this tour;

"COHL'S WHORES - A BIGGER BUCK TOUR"

the bottom is about to fallout of the barrel!

Why don't you think he wasn't play-acting before, and now it's the "real" keith?

I'm talking about the "real Keith image" not the real Keith. The real Keith image was formed in the early 60s; the aloof, ultra-cool stage personna. He exhibited a powerful stage presence that way. Now he has to exert it in more obvious, tiresome ways, like singing solo, throwing out tired sound-bites, etc. If I'm critical, it's because the guy is just paroding himself now. Yet, to be fair, maybe he's now relaxed enough up there on stage to be having lots of fun and maybe that's all that matters.

I agree that they should do what The Who did - live webcasts, soundboard CDs, pro shot DVDs. It does seem a bit ridiculous to pipe it through the phone lines when they could just stream it over the internet in much better quality.

Still, it is an innovative idea and it does beat nothing. I'm not paying to listen to a whole concet, but I'd spend two bucks to hear She's So Cold live, even over the phone. Maybe this will help push phone technology to the point where we can someday plug our phone into our sound system and get hi fidelity sound.

I see, and I agree. Yeah, it's nice for him that he seems more comfortable on stage now and maybe happy in general, but he and ron just seem to come out to soak up the love half the time, laughing and hugging and not playing, as if it's their first gig in 10 years, or will be their last. Doesn't that part get old?

Ok, who got the recording after the killer set list in Paris!!! They encored with Satisfaction!!!! Tell me someone got this....how did I not pony up the $40 for this show via my phone???

You are absolutely right!

agreed, gazza, although the following image turned my stomach even more... stones as corporate shills...

That picture breaks my heart!

Because there are enough idiots out there that will fall for this stunt.
And because Keith hospital bills are past due and it will screw up his credit ratings if he doesn't pay asap.
l thought the $500.00 onstage tickets was their lowest but now l stand corrected.
