I was at the opening night of the 1792 tour!

They played a song with the line "let´s bury the hatchet" in the first verse, can´t remember the title. So long ago. "Mick´s Emotions"??

Hard core fans criticized them for these words of peace and harmony. Back then the Stones were well known as big rebels!

I bet, the Stones played the song to please all the Indians in the audience (those, who could afford a ticket).

Yep,and Mick Taylor is still waiting for Columbus!

in 1792, my great great great great grandfather sat next to Rembrandt's father in the audience. He said that the sound quality sucked but Keith looked great and signed a few autographs after the show.

This piano was used by the Stones on a later tour (in 1882):

swiss- thx for the kudos my friend. happy holidays.

Mick had a great stage look in 1792.




IORR............but I like it!

Come on now, we must be historically accurate in all aspects of IORR. Those look like shotgun shells. He would have had a musket in 1792 for dealing with unruly fans!

I thank Craig Braun for everything.

Security, 1776-style. That woman shouting PAINT IT BLACK YOU DEVILS at the back of the crowd had better watch out!

This thread reminds me of a comic strip I saw last week. An aging mod musician from the 60's is sitting next to a young girl at the bar. He then asks if she might remember him from "the british invasion" to which she replies "1776 or 1812?"

That was no ordinary woman. That was a witch and she was later burnt at the stake for heresy.

A History of the World in Rolling Stones Concerts
Posted: 12/20/2012

Eleven years after the benefit concert in response to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks was held at Madison Square Garden, many of the same top musicians came together to raise money for those suffering from Superstorm Sandy, including Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Billy Joel, The Who, Eric Clapton and Bon Jovi.

The Concert for Black Death, 1348: No one who was there will ever forget the moment the opening chords of their mega-hit "Putrefaction" rocked the Cathedral at Chartres, as the band took the stage after six hours of Gregorian chants by their opening act, the Righteous Brothers. (That was the original group, consisting of actual Franciscan brothers.) The event, which supported research into the role of witches and Jews in spreading bubonic plague, kicked off the famous "Let It Bleed" tour and pogrom, which resulted in the Stones' being banned from virtually every hotel in the Holy Roman Empire.

Occupy the Vatican Benefit, 1521: "Hey, the time is right for a Protestant Reformation," they sang, bringing the crowd of 400,000 in St. Peter's Square to its feet dancing as they introduced the chart-topping "Priest Fighting Man," which held the #1 position for virtually the entire 16th century. Reportedly provoked by John Lennon's remark that the Beatles were more popular than Jesus Christ, Mick Jagger had announced his intention to "show that little ponce who's God's vicar on Earth" by overthrowing the Roman Catholic Church. Jagger and Keith Richards, joined by Martin Luther on harmonium, helped usher in more than 400 years of religious warfare in Europe, beginning with a clash between the Vatican's Swiss Guards and the concert security force of Hell's Angels. Leaving Rome after the 18-hour post-concert banquet, Bill Wyman reportedly woke up, saw the Colosseum and quipped, "Blimey, did we do that?"

Thomas Jefferson's Inaugural, 1801: A last-minute substitution for Bob Dylan, who had a conflicting engagement to perform at a bar mitzvah at Fraunces Tavern, the Stones' first live American performance was a triumph, ending with the legendary 37-minute-long version of "Jumping Jack Flash," written as a tribute to outgoing President John Adams. The new President danced three quadrilles with Bianca Jagger. The ball ended on a sour note, though, when Jefferson attempted to enslave Jimi Hendrix, who had joined the Stones on stage for "Paint It Black." An entry in the Monticello account books for "repairs &c to Guests Roomes" has been linked by researchers to reports of a three-day after-party, which ended only when Jefferson ran out of Champagne.

The Voyage of the Titanic, 1912: As the great ocean liner slipped into the Atlantic, the band played on -- at least until seawater reached the stage and short-circuited the band's primitive electric guitar during the bridge in "Honky Tonk Woman." Showing remarkable courage, the group finished their set before jumping into a lifeboat, elbowing out a contingent of off-screen characters from Downton Abbey and Upstairs, Downstairs. As he watched the giant ship sinking, Jagger reportedly turned to Richards and quipped, "Blimey, did we do that?"

The 1792 tour thread is baaaaaaaaaaack! ><

STP was a big deal. I got a postcard somewhere saying I didn't win tickets. Wish I had.. Somewhere I have a cassette copy which is rumored to be a best of 72/73 tour of Australia compiled for the band and lifted from Keith. When I find it I'll offer it to someone here to clean up if it's truly unusual. It's a full 90 minutes and a board tape, it was my go to for years,

Not sure about SOM, but I'm almost certain they dropped Sympathy from the Vatican setlist.
