I saw Bonnie Raitt do Shine a Light with them in Vancouver last tour. Despite horrible sound in the venue it was pretty cool.

As I get older I find it hard to keep with the stuff I'm supposed to take! They never give you the good stuff when you can dance...

Eddie Vedder did a fine job on it.

I saw Hampton on PPV when it happened. Keith really bashes the guy who jumps on stage. Was swinging for the fences.

If Willie were there, Keith might forget how to play Brown Sugar!

CYHMK with Mick Taylor. Sigh. The dream...

Maybe they could do a nice blues. If memory serves, there's some history with Carlos & Mick Taylor too. As long as he leaves the bongo army at House of Blues!

The no piano thing might have something to do with Stu. I was lucky enough to see him play a few times with the band.

Someone floated Tom Jones on this site. I'd be down with that! I've seen him down there a few times. Think its been awhile though. Still has "the Voice"!
Forum: Tell Me

Ya. There were some pretty humorous exchanges. "songs about dead blonde chicks" & "shriveled old monkey" were some of the highlites. haha. To tell the truth, I'd rather have no guests & more songs with Mick Taylor instead. On youtube, I liked the Tom Waits spot & didn't mind Keith Urban. Gwen Stefani looked good but was out of her element.

Like I said, it was just a thought. Although I don't much care for his schmaltzy stuff, he is a hell of a piano player.

Any interesting rumors out there about guests in Vegas? I see BB King isn't on the road that weekend & he lives in Vegas. I could get into that in a big way. Carlos Santana is in town @ House of Blues. Don't know how much I'd enjoy that. I'm going to float something here that will never happen. Elton John is playing @ Caesar's. I know about past "difficulties&quo

Wow! This setlist is very cool. 4 days of work & then fly to Vegas. Going to be a looooooong week.

Sheryl Crow did a fine job with it on the 40 Licks tour in Tacoma, WA.

I think we are lucky to have the opportunity to see them at this point at all. They could be comfortably retired at this point. Obviously there is still magic in the chemistry between them on stage. & I include Ronnie in that. The other musicians have been with them a long time now & fit in well. Looks like they let Lisa do Gimme Shelter & I'm all for that. The lady can sing! As

Factory Girl is a pretty cool choice. Also, although it has appeared sporadically through the years, I would be pleased to hear Respectable in Vegas. Some Girls was a big record for me in my sordid youth. My first Stones show was 1978 in Boulder when I was 17. I conned my parents into letting me drive from Seattle to Boulder for it. It was 2 days before the show that came out on dvd last year. Pl

It's beyond time to get excited about the tour! The Las Vegas show will be #17 or 18 for me since 1978 (I'm a little blurry). I'm really stoked about Mick Taylor playing with Keith & Ronnie. The Midnight Rambler from the PPV was stellar. I do hope they let Lisa Fischer do Gimme Shelter. She's an awesome singer & whilst Lady Gaga, Florence et al did a good job @ the ear

I'm just saying that he has been in the band a long time. Many shows & albums. I love both Ronnie & Mick Taylor. (& Brian Jones for that matter). Ronnie & Mick are both fine musicians. I hope we get plenty of all 3 guitars playing together. I think both Some Girls & Tatoo You have aged pretty darned well. I will grant you the during the Taylor years the band was at the to
Forum: Tell Me

I'm hoping for all 3 guitars for part of the show. I don't think there should be any discussion about Ronnie being a true Stone. He's been in the band longer than Brian Jones & Mick Taylor combined. & I love his playing especially with the news that he's sobered up. He was fantastic on the 40 Licks tour. I saw one show on the Bigger Bang tour where he was out of it but
