What you are saying in your last comment, Nisse, is basically the Stones is a greatest hits band content with playing 50 year old hits to a public who doesn't care about anything past 1972 at all and only wants to hear the same old hits all over again. For the 1100th time...

I say, Norway down with 0-6 to England after the first half. Never seen anything like this in women's football. Norway is, normally, a very good team... Seen some games, some awfully bad like Northern Ireland vs Austria today, and some better. Germany and France look like very strong teams. Holland are the reining champions. They didn't look that good against Sweden though (1-1). Sw

QuoteWitness QuoteStoneage "Let's Work" is not just "hilarious" it is Sir Michael's ode, or homage, to neoliberalism. And a late tribute to the Iron Lady. It is meant to be taken seriously, not as a joke. In a way his philosophy of life. I think that we really do not know for sure whether this song lyrics is to be understood as a deliberate self-defining statement

A message to Keith to get the Stones going again? Who broke up the band? In 1987 Jagger was going all-in on his solo career. He even informed journalists not to ask question about The Stones. As I said earlier; the song Let's Work is about Jagger's philosophy of life and his political stance. Not a joke or a hidden message to Keith. Take it or leave it.

This year or next year. Otherwise there is always a risk we will be talking about a posthumous release or a release managed by someone outside the group. In a way it is already a posthumous release since Charlie's departure.

It's not the sound really - they peaked in the late seventies that's why. Stage sound has improved since the seventies of course - so you can't blame that.

To seriously answer the question and avoid any misunderstanding: No, Keith is not androgynous. To be a rock star means, however, that you, most often, play with androgynity when it comes to clothing and appearance. It comes with the trade so to speak. Few rock stars wear suit and tie on stage. So, all of you Keith fans don't have to worry. Keith is not unmanly...

19 songs setlist of which 13 are always the same. Leaves you with 6 songs that are either fresh or rarely played. All in the first third of the setlist. The change of opener for the second Hyde Park song was a little bit of a surprise though.

I will go straight to the point: What Lisa brought to The Rolling Stones was sex appeal. That's the reason she has her own threads on IORR. Nothing wrong with her voice but that is not the center of attention for her male followers. Even if they claim so.

What is the point discussing at all? The setlist is the same as the last time. Interesting till about song number eight and from then on the usual suspects. Nothing is going to change that. Nothing.

The setlists are great - for the first 8 songs of the show. From then on (9-19) it is the usual suspects, and they are the same for every show. That pattern is not going to change so it is no use even discussing here on the forum.

Start Me Up has never been good on stage. It is , by far, their biggest hit since 1981. I don't know why they not have been able to make more out of it live. The studio version still is miles ahead.

Seems to me Steve Jordan has reinvigorated the band in a way. A tad faster tempo and more energy on some songs. The setlist? The first 8 songs looks like a marvellous setlist. From then on it's the usual suspects. Considering their age the band sounds very good.

Angie is the only hit single among those four. It's not my personal choice but I think it would be a wise decision if they want to play to the crowd. It is probably settled beforehand though. Angie it will be.

Congrats to Finland. They made it in the 4th period after a Canadian penalty. Sweden? I can't forgive NHL "star" Rasmus Dahlin for his stupid puck-out when Sweden had 3-1 against Canada and 3 minutes to go in the third period. His penalty invited Canada into the game.

I don't know about the avatar thing but that is one hell of a setlist for a pop group. Few pop groups can match a string of hits like that. Regardless if you like them or not.
