I'm betting the stones will do a tribute (cover) song to either James Brown or the Ronnettes on the next tour. Mabye "it's a mannnnn's world"? any thoughts?

I went to the fortune teller.......

I'm thinking "Staying Alive" for Maurice Gibb.

"No Anchovies, Please"

Why the Ronettes?

YMCA

..LOL

I think they will do a James Brown song, Out of Sight or I feel Good maybe.

Staying Alive, YMCA: The Rolling Stones disco project- play that funky music, white boy!!

but realistically folks, It's a Man's World would be great. Sensitive soul vocals and a bit of"swagger". Jagger and Lisa trading vocals. Squeeze it in after Tumblin' Dice.

Maybe Mick could mention "the three princes of peace" that James refers to.

"No Anchovies, Please"

How about a Billy Preston song?

Did Mick ever perform "Think" in concert (the JB song, not the Stones)?

Would be a great crowd sing along

Melody for Billy preston...Bernard or Lisa are more than able to the second vocal part...

Mick did perform "Sex Machine" in 1988.

Yeah, and it sounded absolutely horrible...
Papa's Got A Brand New Bag would be cool - but I doubt they can pull it off live...

Maybe they could dim the house lights and come on stage as "Outta Space" played. Better than that stupid electronic stuff they've used since 1997.

"No Anchovies, Please"

Now that you mention it, the rehearsals could feature some interesting cover possibilities -- James Brown, why not? Yeah, I could see that. For Billy Preston -- what about "Nothing from Nothing"? Billy did that in his miniset on the 75 tour, didn't he? I could envision Mick doing that one.

What's that ZZ Top song, Gimme all your money...

ROCKMAN

I know that they did a couple of their own songs that referenced the city in which they were playing in NA last summer/fall (and a verse from Wichita Lineman), but have they done tribute songs for artists who have passed on during previous tours?

Is there a precedent for them to choose songs to do on tour for such a reason?

why dont the stones tribute original stones songs never done before, how about that, since there are about 300 they havent done, i mean nothing personal to james brown but cmon man

It's not an "either/or" situation, they can do both in one setlist.

JB's Try Me
They supposedly recorded it in 64

I was just kidding about "Staying Alive", and, please, no YMCA. Maybe they could cover a song by the Rolling Stones - say, "Out Of Time"?

yeah but for every one cover song that means one less stones song

It's time for one more Chuck Berry cover...

James Brown right after Keith's mini-set and just before the B-stage roll-out.

If Chuck Berry goes in the next few months it will be a Berry tribute.

yeah but I think he still has got a few years to go.... he's very tough physically! and he has been living very healthy all of his life! (no alcohol drugs... only smoking... but not a chain-smoker).

also hasnt written a song in about 300 years
