Scale it up, up, up. I firmly believe that The Stones music needs Stadium to be at the top. That dimension : audience breathe, lacks in SAL. If they don't do it, it means that Rock is damned to disappear rapidly. Isn't Rio the best example of what a Stones night is.

With the right kind of editing, sure.

The last 2 stadium shows I saw, most people around me seemed bored and distracted. The crowd just wasn't very engaged but again, a lot of that can be faked in a video to make it seem more exciting than it really was.

Why? A stadium show is all about spectacle. Not music. "Rock" doesnt need fireworks and flashing lights to survive. It needs live music.

If theres a problem with SAL like you describe, its down to the way the film is edited as it disregards the audience for the most part. I'm sure those who were at the show itself have their own pleasant memories of it.

re: when are they gonna meet again?

Mick and Ronnie were at the Racanteurs show. [www.nme.com]

Maybe they contacted Keith & Charlie via Skype or some other teleconference.
Actually...maybe they use iChat.....Mick's an Apple guy.


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