Diamonds for a 60th anniversary. Diamonds are gemstones. I'm confident it didn't go down this way but this sounds like a title where Keith and Mick each got to pick one word. I quite like it. I hope it's great.

AC/DC were just better, regardless of any waiting before the Stones took the stage or fan fatique after a long day. I'm not a big AC/DC fan so no bias that way, on my part.

I can echo the other sentiments about it being a hot, long, day. Tons of great performances and definitely not the best I'd seen the Stones perform. One side note which was bad at the time but kind of funny in retrospect...around the time of SARS there was also a mad cow issue within the Canadian beef industry. As such there were promoting the hell out of beef and you could buy a big ste

Interesting question. I'd throw Johnny Carson into the conversation. 30+ years of being in everyone in North America's living room, in the days of 3 networks, is a lot of laughs.

QuoteNickB I really hate the lyrics. They are probably the worst lyrics commited tape Stoneswise or other. If you want something worse just skip back a few tracks to Brand New Car.

Just saw today that they are trying to crowdsource funding to get this thing released. You will be listed in the credits, with different titles, depending on how much you donate. I don't know what they need, and I know I'm being an idealist, but it would be cool if one or some of the big artists who benefitted from Nicky's fine playing, would pony up some dough to get this finish

I love the "If you're in Canada or visiting soon..." I am actually in Halifax but the notion that anyone would make a special effort to get to this if they are anywhere else in Canada is silly. For reference, it's about an 18 hour drive from here to Toronto and Toronto is "close" compared to much of the country.

I spent a lengthy amount of time dealing with Amazon customer service about this. In mid-November I contacted them as I was worried about this order getting cancelled. At that time they emailed me confirming that I would get my pre-order and I would be "first in line" to do so. Today has been incredibly frustrating. During the same conversations I have been told I would be able to

It will never happen but if they were to bring back paper tickets exclusively it would really curb the reselling market. It's so easy for anyone, anywhere to snap up tickets, resell them and email them anywhere. It's funny how scalpers were depicted as scum until big business got involved.

Spotify vs. more classic media is not an either/or situation. I listen to both frequently. Spotify is great for trying something out to see if you like it. With the price of vinyl now I'm not just going to take a chance and I hope I like it. Spotify is also great for things I'll just never find or be able to afford on vinyl. Question though for the flac users. I still rock a 1970
