Around 8:15 someone arrived which caused a round of applause down on the floor, then lods of people rushed to the side tunnel and started taking photo's. Who was it? anyone know?

That was a certain Mr Bill Wyman!

I'm wondering....does a Bill Wyman sit, stand and dance, or stand with his arms folded, appearing to be disinterested. I'm guessing the latter since that is how he appears in pretty much any video I've ever seen of him).

that's only when the cameras roll, WM - he's often seen doing break-dances in more private moments...

Bill's "moon walk" is particularly awesome.

.....I'll never forget that time I saw Bill Wyman spinning on his head while waiting for a table at Shoney's......he didn't think anyone was watching...

He plays Air Bass...

You might have to scrape me off the floor at the end of the tour, but it'll be really good scrapings. - Mick Jagger

And the queen is bravely shouting,
"What the hell is going on?"

About the same time Ronnie O'Sullivan walked past us on theFloor and no-one seemed to notce . Did anyone else see him?

During the first half hour of the concert Bill Wyman was standing just to the side of Block A3 at the front with 3 young children.Other people standing here were other family members who later on went on stage.
The 3 children Bill was with decided to sit on the floor but a security guard told them to stand up so at that point Bill took the kids away through the exit and as far as I know never returned.

Mick Taylor

the cheers were also for Penelope Cruz who was sitting in front of us...WOW!

Yes, Bill Wyman was seated in Sec. 103 by Stones security. A lot of people where standing in front of the block and took pictures like in a zoo!

Ok everyone,

It was Lukester with his entourage.

I wish. My entourage was still outside trying to park our pickup truck in VIP parking.

i saw her walk into the private party after the show. a woman tried to grab her and penelope looked pissed.

I saw Bill too, but the picture I tried to take was blurry. Nice seeing him there though. I heard the rumor that he was gonna play at the show. I saw the setlist before the show started (A guy next to me had it). Bill wasn't on it. I saw that they'd play SWH and thought that if he doesn't come out on that one, he won't come at all. SWH is one of those "rolling" tunes that Bill shines on.

Was this the first Stones show that Bill Wyman has been to since Urban Jungle?
Probably wondered why the setlist was so short.
Do you think he owns any recent Stones DVDs?


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

He saw at least one of the Wembley Stadium shows in 1995, and I think also in 1999. He was also at one of the Wembley Arena shows in 2003 (the last one if I remember correctly).

Some friends and I shook hands with Bill when he and his little family arrived at the Rattlesnake Inn on Sunday. He wanted to know how the ticket sales for his 14 (?) Norwegian shows were going, and sent his best regards to his Norwegian friend Jorn in Halden. Jorn could not go to London due to a hamstring operation the day after the Oslo show on August 8th. Speedy recovery, man! Hope you catch up with Bill in two weeks.

Bill is playing in the small Norwegian towm Kristiansund in September.

Facing the stage, would he have been on the right or left hand side of A3?

So, this presumably would have been after he left the front of A3? And did he watch the complete show?


Plexi

L'Wren Scott sat next to the guy controlling the lights. Just in front of row BB and was there for most of the show.

And Michael Colh sat behind Dave the FOH mixer (counting ze money).
