I´m anxious for news about tonite´s concert. Here in Brazil there a great expectations about this concert. The south american hard core fans are very exited about it.

Will there be any surprises? Anyone care to hazard a guess?

i cant wait also..iw been Stoned all day long, and how i wish i could be at the O2 arena tonight...

I think there will be a few surprises, remember that Vancouver had Bonnie show up onstage, and then Keith did 3 songs, so you never know. If I had to guess:

1. JJF to open
2. Monkey Man tonight instead of CYHMK/Rambler.
3. Something on the acoustics - Wild Horses? As Tears Go By??
4. A different one from Keith to replace Wanna Hold You.

Surprise guests?

Bill and Mick T ain't gonna happen. Prince is a longshot, but certainly a possibility.

what's a surprise? i don't think i have a grasp of the meaning of the word....

dont expect anything ..... than just a regular ABB show with maybe one rare song .. thats how it always has been ... if there s more take it as very special HAVE FUN ALL AT THE 02 !!

There will be few if any surprises tonight. This is the Stones we're talking about. It's just another gig to them. The only surprise will be Jagger thanking all of the crewmembers during the intros. Other than that

ha ha ha, thats what you have in common with the Stones!!!

20 songs tonight maybe?

I predict that it will be business as usual...normal ABB set and they will dig out a semi-surprise like Its All Over Now, Waiting On A Friend, Let It Bleed, Sweet Viginia or Get Off Of My Cloud and people on this board will praise them in the sky for it. maybe they will be even adventurous by their standarts and deliver Im Free, Loving Cup or Faraway Eyes, who knows! besides that, it will be the best show in years (or ever) and with standarts like Satisfaction or Flash praised as "definitely nailed tonight" or even "reinvented". and when the dust settles, it will be "just" a good show, like so many before.

hope I am wrong this time, hope it for everyone whos able to be there!!!

yes, it will be the best-show ever. no doubt. and you won't be able to weigh in on that debate if you weren't there. because the recordings lie. oh, and because this isn't just a concert where music is paramount -it's a show and if you aren't there you miss out on all the non-musical content which the recordings can't capture. i've inherited all this wisdom by paying careful attention to the smart people on this board the past few days. my thanks and heartfelt gratitude to all you who have participated in enlightening me.

I think your right. After the first 2 shows I think it's pretty cleare their will be no setlist surprises. I'm sure it will be a good show,performed well. But no surprises.

"It's just some friends of mine and they're busting down the door"

maybe I am crazy but I dared to add some more songs to my orginal post above which now reads like this:

"normal ABB set and they will dig out a semi-surprise like Its All Over Now, Waiting On A Friend, Let It Bleed, Sweet Viginia or Get Off Of My Cloud and people on this board will praise them in the sky for it. maybe they will be even adventurous by their standarts and deliver Im Free, Loving Cup or Faraway Eyes, who knows!"

All it takes is 1,2 semi-rarely played songs and becomes a GREAT setlist. What happened to the theory that once they got back to cities that they have played often,they would shake up the setlist? Keith does'nt even change his set and it's only 2 songs.

"It's just some friends of mine and they're busting down the door"

yes !! I won at the lottery.. ..but 8 euros !! ourgh
so I am not in London tonight

This does indeed set a new standard - now the setlist whiners whine BEFORE the show is even played *lol*

Watch out next year as we shall whine about the 2008 tour that never was and if it was - what shitty setlists, Keef now officially dead, but this time with a full beard - continue the list at will *lol*

there are rules to this???? whining is an artform and it should never be questioned or tampered with.....

It's not whining. It's fact....Having said that,I hope everybody going to the show tonight has a good time and enjoys whatever they play.

From what I can see it is a growing artform - constantly new things to moan and gripe about.

It used to be people who weren't there, complaining about concerts they never saw.

Now it's developed into whining beforehand about shows you're not going to go to or tours that will never happen or whatever takes your fancy *lol*

Today's catchphrase: ""Whine before you know. This way at least, you get to moan and groan" (If nothing else....)

It's going to be difficult. Somebody earlier wrote that the show Thursday was the best he ever saw but was instantly corrected by someone not there????? I mean - I could have understood the comment from someone actually present, but this???

Ya gotta larfff!!

text from Gazza, who is at the Rattlesnake inn:
"Apparently Wyman is here!"


Gazza: "Wyman told someone he's playing on a couple of songs later. Just saw Keith's daughter, Angela, and Charlie's daughter too.

whatever it means - but it's perfect for speculation.
go speculate

It's gonna be "business as usual" IMHO..... Jagger is very good at blocking feelings so if there's even any thought within the band that this is the last tour Mick's not gonna let on to the Stones worldwide audience... in fact he'll probably scream out "See ya next year" as his last on stage line. I'll be really shocked if they do ANYTHING unusual (besides thanking the crew) - not even one extra or rare - ish song.... Stiff Upper Lip AS USUAL...... Will the IORR Viewer User/Guests record numbers be broken today during the show? That MIGHT happen, that's my prediction....

maybe KEiths daughter is goin to sing with the Father...Wyman?...hmm..well i think that in general he wanted to go to the Prince koncert..but he got the wrong information..

Wyman is playing or just watching???

Let me add a bit of a whine:

Wish I was THERE with the fine lot of you for
this last show!

IF "OUR BILL" is backstage or somewhere in the 02 .. no problem but IF he's on stage for one or more songs THATS THE END ..
