Slewan-because they didn't play Chuck's home town of St. Louis in 2017. Tour opens in Chuck's hometown.

One interesting observation from the rehearsed song lists we have seen, no Chuck Berry songs seem to appear. That doesn't mean they didn't rehearse any, just none appear on the leaked lists. So anyone hoping to hear Little Queenie, Let it Rock, or Sweet Little Sixteen in St. Louis, that probably seems doubtful. And probably more appropriate to focus on Charlie and not honoring Chuck.

I kind of hope not and those stories have kind of disappeared the last few days. So probably not.

Dan, weather should be perfect next Sunday, unseasonably warm this year. You should be able to get good seats for a really good price.
Forum: Tell Me

Gotcha Nate, I wasn't looking for a fight buddy, were 7 days away from opening night, I just thought we would have more info on merch. Perhaps Charlie's passing meant re doing all the merch to the Black logo. Listening to Bridges to Bremen right now with College Football in the background! Fall in the Midwest!

I was just looking at the St. Louis ticket map on TM. They have actually eliminated seats as well. Those sections in the lower bowl directly to the side of the stage, have been eliminated by about 75%. This would be a great show to have LDs. $25 next Sunday in St. Louis would probably get you a REALLY good seat!

I don't know but they sure like to put out tongues around stadiums, billboards up around the show venues, send out emails before shows, put up Tweets days before shows in each city, put up song votes, show pictures of the litho/shirt design for individual cities. But perhaps they won't do any of those things this tour because fans are already beyond excited for the shows as is.

Ticket sales in St. Louis say differently.

Song vote should pop up by Wednesday I would guess. Being the opener they may show the Lithograph and Merch early to get fans pumped up.

Judging by rehearsed songs...no unplugged set? Only Angie from the lost was played on small stage. No Dead Flowers, Sweet Virginia, Play with Fire, or Let it Bleed.

BV-I am sure Charlie was VERY proud of you. You created a place where people from various countries, races, religion beliefs and on and on could come together and discuss one thing-The greatest Rock N Roll Band of all time THE ROLLLLLLLING STOOOOONES! For that I'm sure Charlie was as grateful as the rest of us are for all your hard work.

Rest in Peace Debbie. So many great video feeds from her over the last few tours. Until the Next Goodbye.

No shame on me whatsoever. For those who choose to go, good for you! I hope everyone has a great time! And I'm sure you will. And I honestly and sincerely mean that. But there is definitely no "shame" involved with my decision that I want my last show to be Chicago 2019 with Charlie. Zero shame at all and neither should there be.

I had Hot Rocks on in the back ground last night. Trying to imagine any of those songs without Charlie on drums....
Forum: Tell Me

Definitely fits, kind of in the same vein as Out of Control. Perfect song for the #4 spot in the setlist.
Forum: Tell Me

Dougratajczak87 you literally picked my brain. Heartbreaker and Beast of Burden "win" a song vote or 2. Ghost Town probably goes into the 4th spot in the setlist, May or May not stay for all shows. Definitely will be played opening night. Speaking of opening nights, typically they throw in a deep cut, Flip the Switch May be this year's Sad Sad Sad. May get played a second time on t

8 times. Only once at Busch-1989. The Dome in 1997.

Kind of feel like if this show was a Friday night or a Saturday night it would have helped the slow ticket sales.
Forum: Tell Me

Taste of St. Louis will be going on in Ball Park Village right outside of Busch so with that going on, I would doubt there will be any tours or anything going on inside Busch.

You know your not from the Mid West if the 3 words-East St. Louis don't scare the Hell out of you!

Taste of St. Louis is going on 24th, 25th, and 26th as well in Ball Park Village. Should have plenty of food and drink options that Sunday.

Gonna sit this one out. Sometimes you have to listen to the universe. Whole Lotta bad MOJO all together with this tour. Have had tix since Valentines Day 2020 which now seems like 100 years ago. Gave it a lot of thought and have gone back and forth many times. Kind of hard to go when my girlfriend works 12 hour days at a hospital with COVID soaring again. Love the Stones but love her more.

18 days until St. Louis and plenty of tix available for the tour opener. I'm betting some freebies coming there too.

Plenty of tickets available for St. Louis.

Georgia Bulldogs had a big win on Saturday over Clemson. Today Georgia is dealing with a spike in spike. Will be interesting to see if any other team has issues ad the week goes on.

Chicago Cubs Manager David Ross and GM Jed Hoyer test positive for COVID. Next 10 days are going to be very interesting with schools back in session and high school and college sports going on with fans.

Man I'll take the under. I'll say 2.
Forum: Tell Me

My concerns would be the closed domes. St. Louis won't be a problem with no NFL team now. I think the Stones kind of missed the best possible window which seemed to have been early Summer. Kind of feel this one...Slipping Away before it starts.
Forum: Tell Me

RidingStone, I'm with ya. DP, Zeppelinaid the ground work, Sabbath took it a bit further but Priest is really the first band to embrace and define Metal. Maiden (my favorite) followed the footsteps Priest laid as did all the New Wave of British Metal bands. In the US in NY and LA they applied their own esthetic to it but used the same Priest template.
