OK, I think the new set list looks good but since I think IORR and other Stones boards have A LOT to do with songs like SWAY, CYHMK, MONKEY MAN maybe we can do it ONE MORE TIME. Here's the rules:
Pick only 3 Stones written songs (rockers) that have appeared on a Stones studio album (that means no Chuck Berry, Ray Charles, James Brown, etc) Pick 2 slow ones.
Pick songs that are playable live (that means forget HIGH AND DRY, WE LOVE YOU (love the song but just can't see them stretching that far), Just songs that make sense - over looked gems - We'll add up the totals and get the list to Chuck or something. Think this one through - really, no off beat stuff.
Here's my 5 - NEVER PLAYED LIVE BEFORE/SONGS THE STONES WROTE - choices:
(Rockers) 1. SHE WAS HOT 2. HIGHWIRE 3. SOUL SURVIVOR
(Slow Ones) 4. BACK STREET GIRL 5. 2000 MAN

I think there's about 10 to 15 Stones numbers that really deserve to be played that have been over looked (and for sure they'll do a better job then the one time try out mess "STOP BREAKING DOWN" from the 1994 Miami Broadcast/DVD).....
Yeah, I thought so BUT, let's say anything with Brian can be played again since it's gonna sound a lot different. MLH is a great choice but the line about "Drag Getting Old" might be touchy (but they did LAST TIME all during the 1997 tour so you never know)......
back street girl WOULD BE A HIGHLIGHT LIVE !!! I can hear it
Back street girl down in the hole (in club venue) if you really want to be my friend (with bobby womack as guest) she was hot Empty heart (to listen to Mick on the harmonica - it must have been played live before)

> Empty heart (to listen to Mick on the harmonica - > it must have been played live before) > So interesting that you mention EMPTY HEART toomuchforme cause I've thought this one would be a great choice for the longest time. I hear it as an updated version kinda played in a IF YOU CAN"T ROCK ME roughish style with a tiny bit of 1994's NOT FADE AWAY thrown in. If it was updated to rock a little more it could really work out great. I don't know if they ever played it pre 1969. Never saw it on any set lists or bootlegs from the "Brian" period. EMPTY HEART, great choice !!

Might be right - too political....I'll make my 3rd one a rough/hard version of EMPTY HEART...... TILL THE NEXT GOODBYE as a back up...
is the thread starter on crack? he says nothing from steel wheels-ABB and from a studio album then, lists highwire which is a bonus studio cut tacked on to a live album, that came out after steel wheels lol. anyways here's what i would like to hear even if it dosn't follow his rules, if these songs have been played live someone let me know.
highwire she was hot all the way down emotional rescue let it loose dirty work if you really want to be my friend
runners up are: BACK STREET GIRL/SLAVE/EMPTY HEART/TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE/TILL THE NEXT GOODBYE/DOWN IN THE HOLE/IF YOU REALLY WANT TO BE MY FRIEND/DIRTY WORK/EMOTIONAL RESCUE
HOPE I GOT ALL OF THEM...SO COME ON AND VOTE THEN WE GET THE LIST TO CHUCK !!!
I THINK IORR HAD A LOT TO DO WITH "SWAY" SO EVERYBODY VOTE THIS TIME !!!
That's alright - SOUL SURVIVOR would be great. If they were to ONLY do 2 or 3 off the list total that would be a miracle. I read they're working on SHE WAS HOT so MAYBE we'll get a few....
Love that they changed up the set list, the set list moaners can make some kind of difference perhaps.. Here are my 5, however I do think they should some more newer stuff so I will add a tune or two at the end of my list just for the hell of it.
1. Mother's Little Helper 2. She Was Hot 3. Slave 4. Back Street Girl 5. Down in a Hole
Newer ones...
1. Break the Spell 2. Had it With You or Dirty Work 3. Let Me Down Slow or Look What the Cat Dragged In
i mean am i supposed to ask them to play something else so i don't hear "sway" or my girlfriend hears "under my thumb" (her favorite song) or i hear two of my favorite keith songs "little t*a" or "you got the silver"
1. We Love You.....2.She Was Hot...3.Let it loose..4.Continental Drift..5.If You really Want to be my Friend......its forbidden but..6.Let me down real slow..7.Laugh I nearly died..8.Sittin on a Fence.
