Great band back in the day but the tour didn't live up to the hype. Of course the hype imploded with Stewart Copeland's first post show blog.

Yes the LA Sports Arena is still standing but it is rarely used. He hates the Forum too? Guess that might explain why he always played the Sports Arena even when the Forum was the preferred venue. Has anyone checked the schedule for the Arrowhead Pond?

I wouldn't rule out a Jagger solo tour in the future but only after there is no possibility of additional Stones tours. It would be a shorter tour mostly in theatres. In LA it would be at the Universal Amphitheatre (cap 6,200) or in an equivalent sized venue, 1 night only.

"What get's me is the amount of you who have seen the Spice Girls.....Why? What were you thinking?" It's like Beatlemania with tits. Something that just had to be experienced to be believed.

I am not a fan but I would take a Justin Timberlake duet over Dave Matthews or Sheryl Crow any day. And it's not like he was up there for JJF but "Miss You" for Keith's sake. @#$%& "Miss You" if that helps put things in perspective. Out of the pro shot boots I have seen from that gig I would rank the Stones third unfortunately - and I've only seen 3 bands.

I love that version of Moon Is Up, thought it should have been played in 1994 instead of one of the more generic songs like Sparks Will Fly, I Go Wild and especially Love Is Strong. The best demonstration of Gazzability is Anaheim '02! His presense is what made that show the best of the LA trilogy.

My first tour was also Outside with Nine Inch Nails. Saw that 3 times with an additional end of tour gig at the Hollywood Palladium. I didn't have internet yet so everything was a total surprise. I knew it was going to be new stuff and rarities but just about blasted off when he did "Breaking Glass." Was a bigger NIN fan around that time period but Bowie became a favorite for sure

There was a 2nd tour in 1991 but it was more co-headlining with both doing 70-80 min sets with Extreme opening though I think it was supposed to be Thunder here at Irvine Meadows but it got cancelled. I think Cinderella preceded it with a headline arena tour that didn't do too well and also didn't make it to LA. The 1991 tour averaged like 2,000 - 5,000 a night in full size places befor

"Just one of many of the hair metal bands of the 80's who's popularity faded quickly in the early 90's when the Seattle grunge scene hit." Their popularity was already fading. The David Lee Roth/Cinderella tour of 1991 was listed as one of the biggest failures for promotors that year and sputtered to a halt long before it was supposed to be over, and this was after Cin

Rain Fall Down and Back Of My Hand would have been great in the set on a regular basis. Rough Justice sounded great early on but got weaker as the tour went on which is why I was surprised it was the sole song in the set in 2007.
