Hi Whitem8, Im a Scot but was lucky enough to see the Stones St Louis gig last January. The band were great and I loved the venue BUT...everyone around us was sitting eating buckets of popcorn and they either left or talked all through Keefs songs. Can't comment on Detroit obviously, tho I know its got a great reputation as a Rock n Roll city. As a Glaswegian I'm biased, but the atmosphere at Hampden was awesome. Its just a shame the radio broadcast didnt pick up the crowd.

Barcelona and Madrid in different show no discussion,
and have been in lots of countries

Carlos
Tenerife

Ask BV!

He knows for sure!!!

P.S Portuguese audiences are always hot!!!

I'd expected by the time we had got to this many posts some joker would have proposed Altamont 1969. Maybe I'm just too cynical.

"I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon."

Dodger Stadium @ Los Angeles 2006 was a great audience there.

I think in all Rolling Stones shows is a great audience, because stones fans are the greatest and most tolerant music fans in the world, right???????

My head is still spinning from the energy at River Plate, Buenos Aires 2/23/06 (the rain show)... Of course, that was my first show (Stones or anyone else) outside of North America or the UK.

Coimbra 2003 was among the best!!

you're kidding me, right?

Best audience: 1964 Holland, Scheveningen (part of The Hague)

... always,,, los angeles, california .. . , and new york,, ,

The Point Dublin 2003, De Kuip Rotterdam,

I have to admit Buenos Aires is the most wildest audience that I ever seen.
But I love Barcelona's audience too

That's why Jagger say's LA and Ny are like opening night everytime you go there,get your shi* together brother,or don't talk cheap! Milan 06,for me!

Buenos Aires.

Mainly, audiences in South America (in Argentina, first of all!). And in South Europe.

I wasn't there, but from the footage, it's hard to argue with 2 million people on the Beach in Rio.

For the worst audience, I was there, and the first Beacon show was 50% non-fans.

stonesfrk of course jagger says that nyc or la are very exciting
but its exciting cause of the money not cuase of the fans
the usa are the worst place to watch a concert
cause people are sitting there
SITTING
that is so odd and disgusting

You generalize, sir (or m'aam as the case may be). At most every concert I have seen in the USA (29 since 75), I and everyone around me have been standing for the entire show. And this, regardless of whether they have seating or not. Yes, sometimes mostly in the upper decks/tiers there are people sitting but even then not necessarily for the ENTIRE show.

I can most proudly point to the band's first show in my state of Montana in Missoula on October 4, 2006 -- at that show I was on the floor, 13th row, and I deliberately looked around the entire stadium several times including the seats furthest away up high and at the opposite end of the stadium from the stage, and for the ENTIRE show, from what I could see, EVERYONE was standing.

SO THERE!

Oh, and I am very pleased with all the people who have said Barcelona, or some Spanish city, or some Spanish speaking country, as I am going to the Barcelona show (along with Frankfurt, Paris, Lyon, and London).

Should I go to more Spanish shows?

Any American Venue or South American Venue thats about it

Buenos Aires. No other cities do that like Buenos Aires.

Probably it's the Argentinians. They know how to go to rock concerts. Look at them in the BA 2006 DVD. Wild people.

I always believed and saw that whenever they came through Chicago..they always planned something extra special for us. They would change the set lists around...move songs around...and give us a bit more than usual. It seemed to me that they always treated Chicago just as well as they did New York.

Buenos Aires Argentinians yes MEZ
