I think M+K+R will go on as long as it feels good to them… but that’s 3 aging guys and probability dictates a likelihood someone will be either unable or unwilling to tour and/or record soon. Of course we hope they continue to beat the odds and go on forever. I didn’t love the HD album, but I loved that they put it out, and I still love the thrill of hearing a new Stones album. I’m very much look

Being a huge Wilco fan, this is Wilco's only New England show of the summer, and I was SO on the fence with this one, and ultimately did not pull the trigger. Wilco will probably only get an hour set for this, maybe less, and with Willie in his 90s and Dylan in his 80s, and Lucinda not playing guitar anymore... I just couldn't do it. It WILL be a fun show, no doubt, but not quite worth

Well, we know there's at least another album coming, mostly of material recorded during the sessions that produced HD. Is that what this is? They all seem healthy, but yes, they are now quite elderly... If it was just one solo artist, well, we can hope for longevity, but with three remaining core band members, the probability of someone bailing either intentionally or not increases quite a b

Bruce talks about the setlist thing in his latest documentary. He made it clear that the setlist they chose for that tour was wholly intentional, and for the first time they were going to focus on a core set of songs and NOT mix it up, to let that setlist "tell a story." Maybe an excuse to give the "hardest working band in show business" a little break? I think we can give Bru

I liked what they did up to Z, and I loved Jim James’ first solo record. I saw MMJ at a tiny venue in Portland, Maine (The Space) about 22 (?) years ago and it was a really great show, and then I saw that first Jim James solo tour in Portland as well. That show was also great. Since then, their material has not grabbed me, but I also haven’t given much of it a second listen.

A mega set of Stones live material would likely be much more redundant than a Dead set. Think of all the versions of Gimme Shelter and Brown Sugar and JJF and Satisfaction we’d get from nearly every show. There are loads of us who would love a trove of unreleased live material, especially from the 60s and 70s, but I think a big massive set of dozens of shows would be hard to market to anyone
Forum: Tell Me

Did they not already make clear that they recorded another album’s worth of material during the Hackney sessions? Would they not be simply polishing that up for release?

Omg, just the title alone tells me this will be worth watching. ‘The End Continues.’ That’s brilliant. It’s the same people, the same writers, just older and wiser. It’ll just be fun. There’s no reason to expect this to suck.

I’m a big Wilco fan here, and at first I was intrigued, but the stop near me is just them, Dylan, Lucinda,Waylon Payne, and Willie. I don’t know Waylon Payne, but I’m not sure I want to spend the $$ for a 60 min Wilco set and 92 year old Willie and 84 year old Dylan and Lucinda.

It's the best of the last 5 albums, imho. I think VL is maybe equally good... but DW, SW and ABB are far behind, I think. I still occasionally listen to each of these, though!

For fans of the show 'The Bear,' (FX/ Hulu??) you may have noticed the new trailer for the upcoming season features the Stones' Mixed Emotions... This show features a LOT of great music (in particular by the band Wilco, a fave of mine these days, as the show takes place in Chicago), very smartly interwoven into its highly dramatic and emotional scenes. Mixed Emotions was such an in

Chris Frantz has posted some very cryptic "We'll be back" type statements on social media.

I have definitely seen some setlists with bpm beside songs. I do think beginning with SW/Urban Jungle (89/90) they had to coordinate tempo with lights and choreography, etc, but we still hear Keith count songs in, flub songs and restart, etc, so maybe no click track? I would not be quick to assume they don't use a meter at least some of the time, in addition to the recorded percussion of SFT
Forum: Tell Me

Songs like SMU and IORR had a studio sound with a real laid back, heavy groove, and for decades the Stones have played them like hyped up, fast party songs. It makes for a great, high energy live experience. It also makes sense that nowadays, in their 80s, they might want to slow the tempos down. The tempo of a song in a massive show like this is not up to Steve Jordan to decide. That gets decid

My guess is, for whatever reason, Keith and the band only want one song with Keith singing lead in the 18 song set. If he feels and they feel like adding another, I'm sure he/they will.

Drummer here. Steve Jordan is a great drummer and plays Charlie's parts very true to Charlie's style, and when not, more true to the original sound, such as during It's Only Rock and Roll.

The Rolling Stones and the Beatles begat everything else I have ever enjoyed in the realm of rock and roll music. The Stones were my favorite, because I especially identified with the energy of their music, but I loved both bands from an early age.

I have read this is indeed happening, but I believe they only started filming last month or even this month. So my guess is a release will be later this year or next year. I'm sure it will be a gigglefest.

He had posted a few times over the years that he was working on new material that would be out "sometime in the next year," or some such prediction, which he was kind of famous for doing. So I am certain there is some lovely unheard WP music that will, hopefully, see the light of day someday.

THIS was the show I was at, on my 43rd birthday. Thank you for posting! An anecdote: I chatted with Karl out front for 20 minutes prior to the show, and when my friends told him it was my birthday, he took my name down and told me to come to the show the next night (in Portland, ME, 30 minutes from home for me) and they'd let me in, free of charge, which I did!

Tragic. I am really distraught over this.

Karl wore his Stones and Beatles influences on his sleeve, and his songs were gorgeous. His lyrics and music connected with me on a personal level. I saw WP four times, and met Karl
