This is business. No promoter/investor would offer the the Stones who demand a million/bandmember a contract without a warhorse-heavy setlist guaranted. If we are lucky they will throw in a few gems rarely heard before but I don´t bet on that. Crazy Mama, Lies, Just My Imagination, something like that, hardly anything from SW, VL, BTB, ABB imo. No chance for new unreleased songs, imo. They will o

This is my least liked song from glorious Undercover. I wouldn´t say it´s total crap... but somehow this is not the STones... It´s a solo song from Mick and should be on She´s The Boss. That´s were it belongs, imo. It has a catchy chorus but listening closely it turns out to be just a stupid song (like most songs from She´s The Boss).

The day after opening night we all will be a lot smarter: - No new song(s) played - no new song(s) released imo, of course. They released four(!) new albums and a couple of songs in 30(!) years. These albums were subpar compared to their output til 1986. So how in the wo

I´v heard that only one concert of this new 14-CD-monster-package is a professional recording - is that really true? The Trouble-No-More-box also has only one really good stereo-live-recording, the others sound like mono-soundboards. I`ll wait for reviews to come.

Regarding the record company putting on pressure on the Stones: What would that be good for? This major company has countless artists that sell way better than the Stones these days, the company won´t get in any trouble if there´s no Stones-album. The older Stones-albums plus several compilations are still selling (not big numbers each but there are many of them). And if the new album (a bubble a

Normally they don´t rehearse much, and the result is that they always needed a few shows to get the motors fully started. This time imo Mick wants especially the first night to be flawless - for obvious reasons. Fans and press people will take a very close look at him particularly. Imo, he is eager to proof that he and the band are at least as good than the last time around. I am sure that his go

To each his own... 1978 had too many SG-tracks for my taste... not my favorite album of all times... but back then it was their latest album, so the setlist is no surprise... A surprise is how many SG songs were played at the Beacon (Shattered, SG, Farawy Eyes, Just My Imagination). But they did not play Miss You at the Beacon, a very welcome dicision. A setlist without Miss You is always a winne

There are so many, but the studio-outtakes are mostly of bad soundquality, so I just listened to them once. (I am far from knowing all that might exist) Not even the Dirty-Work-outtakes do much for me, the soundquality sucks... Genereally most "songs" (all of the outtakes, not only DW-outtakes) seem not finished and only a very few are actually good songs. I like GS with Keith on vocal
