Creatively and muscially the Stones are way behind Springsteen, Dylan and U2 these days. I would not call them a real band anymore in this way. Lots of fans on this board seem to feel disappointed too by this viewing the replies I received to my question/statement Others will defend their heroes till the end and rave about the Saitama and Twickenham gigs 2007 gigs . I saw both on DVD and

Does anyone know if the Toronto 75 shows from the first day of the tour were taped (and released by IMP and VGP for example) by the famous Mike M.? The quality espec. from the evening show is excellent for an audience tape and I do hear the whissels typically from Mike I thought. Interesting also why this 75 release sounds better than most of the Stones bootlegs recorded in audience quality

if Ronnie and Keith clean up their act and the set list changes, for sure I will go Why not?

Yes they were performed, so what? I would love to hear them again. Boston: you should get your 'facts'straight : Sure the one you need was performed also. I think twice even

You may not like Bruce his music for your own personal reasons MKjan but the Stones would only have 10% of the passion which Bruce shows for his fans....(the great set lists, the boxes he released) But you prefer another HTW and Miss you?

boston2006: I did skip the last tour I had rather see Clapton (boring set lists but great play) Dylan, Springsteen, BCrowes, U2, AC/DC (boring set lists but still rock), Lucinda Williams, Ray Montagne these days....
Forum: Tell Me

I don't care what lives Ronnie/Keith live If I pay $100,- for a ticket I want at least decent play And promoting their latest record is alson not a strange wish. Why shall I get back to you? I have by far most of all the bootleg studio /outtakes. and what do 'box sets' have to do with the non-healthy lives of the two guitarists? Hard to follow your logic boston2006
Forum: Tell Me

Why do I have to be happy they are still performing? I am not happy at all with the shape Keith and Ronnie were in the last tours and with the boring set lists. As simple as that. Close the thread? That would have been a real joke. How can you be sure there is nothing worth in the vaults? Worht maybe not to sell millions if that is what you mean. But why not think about the fans who ha
Forum: Tell Me

Thanks for all the reactions. Basically they don't care sbout their fan base is my conclusion: - No serious money in it to go through release the vaults (I agree) - ignorance with regards to their website - no self confidence to play new material at their gigs (the tourist don't know the new material contrary to Dylan, U2 and Springsteen fans) - two guitaritsts who don;t have the

stones-relics: there are no decent 78 and 75 DVD from live gigs around
Forum: Tell Me

One of my questions was ' do the listen / communicate with their hard core fans'? According to what they release and play during the tours, I feel 0 But BV denies that and he mentions 'we' don't want any outtakes/rehearsals. But BV, you don't want any of their 78 and 75 period?
Forum: Tell Me

I would personally love to get all the "Place Pigalle' stuff in the best possible quality in combination with a 78 live DVD Just imagine..... And Black and Blue outtakes/rehearsals with an LA or SF '75 complete live gig....
Forum: Tell Me

Ablett: Stones popular with the masses? I doubt it. Their CD's are selling poor, the masses are not buying it Son. Popular with so called 'tourists', people who want to see the Stones once in their lives, I presume you mean. Any guitarists in top bands even worse than Ron and Keith at the moment? Name me one...
Forum: Tell Me

Why do the Stones have to deliver only to the masses? Don't they have any respect for their own latest work? Of course all after TTY is of less quality but still I think a band should have its own pride and play at least 6 songs from their latest album
Forum: Tell Me

BV, I cannot understand why you respect the Stones these days as they have turned into a mere nostalgia act with the two worst guitar players on earth. I have not seen them as often as you as I quit after the Live Licks tour Got bored with the same shit all over and over. However, have loads of bootlegs until the 81/82 period. And all the club gigs from the LIcks tour. And I guess I ha
Forum: Tell Me

Judging from: - the fact that the Stones don't dive into their archives at all / release any interesting box sets from the past - their website sucks / Almost unbelievable how the 'greatest R&R band in the world' has such a fan degrading website - the Stones hardly play songs the real fans want and just play almost the same greatest hit list since the Steel Wheels tour

I was there. Is that Chuck on the piano?
Forum: Tell Me

Their best tour ever in my opinion. Pure rock and roll. Promoting Some Girls proudly No back ground vocals shit, just Ronnie/Keith Two great guitar players instead of today clowns and rock and roll pianists with McL and Stewart. The shit started from the Steel Wheels on and it become only worse
