You never heard Emotional Rescue because they always had enough sense not to play it. I admit I am an old Stones fan and if this is going to be the last time I see the best band that ever took the stage I want to hear the songs that made them great.

The Vegas set list was the worst so far on this tour. What happened to all the great songs we heard during rehearsals. Where is the great blues/rock band that we have loved for so many years. Disco is dead. Get rid of Emotional Rescue, Doom and Gloom, and One More Shot, and bring back the great songs like Love in Vain, Sway, Rip This Joint, Sweet Virginia, and others that were rehearsed. Please d

Chriseganstar, Thanks for the tip. I just called Ticketmaster and they moved me closer to the stage and lower than I was with almost no hassle. They were actually really nice about it. If I must listen to Emotional Rescue at least it will be from a great seat!

I will be flying in from another State to see the June 12th Boston show which I bought full price $625.00 tickets for. After suffering through the total disregard for anything resembling fairness and seeing tickets much closer to the stage than mine being sold weeks after I bought my tickets. I am still a fan and decided that if I could score a pair of $85.00 tickets I would stay in Boston for th

I don't think this is just about MT playing more songs We all know that should happen. This is also about the great songs they played at rehearsals in LA. Bitch, Sweet Virginia, Rip This Joint, Love in Vain, Street Fighting Man, Time Waits for No One and others. I am an old Stones fan as are most of the people that are at these shows. I don't want to here Doom and Gloom, or One More Sho

Reading these posts I just had to make this comment. The tickets for Newark were expensive, a hassle to get, the brokers got many of the tickets and nothing was what I would call fair. However after all the bullshit we got our tickets went to the show and realized all we had to go through was well worth the effort. This is still the greatest rock and roll band in the world and that is why tickets

Very sorry for your loss. I also have a great freind that I have been traveling to Stones concerts with since the 70s. It just wouldn't be the same without him. Just know that we are all freinds on this board and we will all be with you on the next tour.

Talking about the sound. I was at the first Newark show. The sound was just about perfect. My first tour was 1972 and I have lost count of how many shows I have seen since then. I am not sure the sound was ever better than it was in Newark. Is this because of advances in technology since the Stones last played in 2007 or was it just a great show in a great venue?

I have not said anything negative about the ticket prices or the way they were sold until now. I bought my tickets through the Amex presale. I just went on ticketmaster and punched in 2 tickets "best available". I tried this 2 times. The first time I was offered 2 tickets in section F on the floor. The second time I was offered tickets in Section 20 which is one section closer to the st

Does anyone know if Lisa Fisher will be in the band at the O2 or Newark shows?

I screwed around with this off and on for several hours. Just about the time I was ready to give up I got 2 tickets in section 21 lower level. These are much better than the ones I was offered earlier in sections 4 and 5. I can live with these!

These shows are for the high rollers and celebs that feel the need to be seen at special events. I will pay the price if I can get a good seat not some bullshit second level seat that should cost $100.00. The shows for the real fans will come in 2013. Be patient!

After reading many of the posts about this song it is obvious that the younger listners like it. As an old fan that has loved the Stones for more years than I care to remember, this is not what the Stones are about. This song belongs on one of Mick's solo albums. Give me back that Rock and Roll band that has always been the best live entertainment on the planet. When they finally decide to d

Don't we have enough stress in our lives without trying to figure out if the Stones will or won't tour. I know this. There is no better entertainment on this planet than a live Stones concert. If they tour I will be there and if they don't I say thanks for the memories.

When I last saw him about a year ago they helped him onstage and he sat in a chair for the entire show, however this took nothing away from his great guitar playing. He did a version of Red House that was amazing.If you have a chance to see him don't miss it.

I am also a big Faces fan. The clips I have seen on the internet tell me that this would be great show.

Since the Stones are waiting until 2013 Ronnie should get the Faces together and do some USA shows. Some positive feedback on this board just may help make it happen.

I don't know if this will help but you can get on more than 1 list. I also have hep C and have had liver cancer. I was operated on 1 week after I got back from the O2 shows. I was fortunate that I did not have a transplant and I was able to get rid of the cancer with a liver resection. I had this done in Tampa at Life Link. This is truley a great organization.

I believe the poor state of the worlds economy is a big factor in the decision to tour or not to tour. We would all like to believe the Stones would just tour to satisfy their fans and except lower ticket prices. Let's be real! Mick will not allow the Stones machine to roll if the money is not available to support it, and in this economy the money is not available. I don't believe the O

I was at the show in Vegas at the MGM on the B to B tour the first time they did Like a Rolling Stone since the Stripped tour in Europe. The audience reaction took the band to a level that I had never seen before or since making this my greatest Stones concert of all the 50+ shows I have seen. They continued to play it for the rest of the tour. I saw several shows on that tour after the Vegas sho

I was in London for the 1st 2 shows at the O2. I was not able to stay for the last show but after seeing 50+ shows (I lost track somewhere near 50) starting with my first show in Pittsburg 1972, I had never heard one of me favorite Stones tunes Shine A Light live until that second O2 show. I kind of felt that after that I may never see them again. I just hope I am wrong!

This nonsense just makes it that much harder for the Stones to get back on the road.

I believe one of the reasons I can't even make myself pretend to like this crap happened on Oct.17th 2005 in Miami Fl. For some reason Mick decided to bring out Joss Stone to take Lisa's part on Night Time is the Right Time. I don't think I have ever seen anything else so musically wrong in my life. I had already seen a couple of shows prior to this and I knew that Night Time was o
