Brown Sugar:
Ok, I see what happend. Keith - like he sometimes does on SMU - added a little pause to the riff and that threw the band off.
Maybe I'm wrong but I thinks Mick comes in a bit early. I think that is what Keith reacted on. Forum: Tell Me
What did Mick mean when he said something like: "I hope you'll behave better than the Pink Floyd fans"? What else did he say in German?

All this rubbish talk about their age / about them looking old.
Here are guys of the same age, born 1943/1944. That´s what average
74 year olds look like (normally).
Now compare and just realize that the Stones are blessed.
They could be fat, handicapped or already dead.
They are for sure the coolest bunch at their age.

I'm considering getting a pit ticket for the show and travelling straight back to Schiphol airport afterwards as there are no local hotels available. The last train to Schiphol (changing at Utrecht) leaves at 00:01. Can someone with local experience tell me if they think I'd have any trouble making that train? I don't fancy 6 hours waiting at the station if I miss it. Forum: Tell Me

Thank you for the heads up. I phoned them if I could upgrade my Premium Standing tickets to pit tickets and they reserved the pit tickets for me. They now have to check if the change is possible.

In 2009 they played the Effenaar in Eindhoven the Netherlands. I didn't know them other than having heard of their name. I had a great night. Great music and a very warm personality.
I was puzzled why they were not more famous than they were.

<when we had Blondie filling in the gaps>
Do you have ONE example where he was «filling the gaps»?
I wasn't trying to rejuvenate the Blondie threat. My point is that despite the glitch that was pointed out with htis comparison, the concert experience I had was at least as good as the ones I had 20 odd years ago. Forum: Tell Me

..... the Vredenburg '03 show which might have been the first time I saw it live, but then again everything about that show was phenomenal.
Seeing Mick at the keyboards was unique enough, and the overall vibe was like being in a small room with the band - which I suppose it was comparatively speaking.

It is small, switches on almost immediately and has great stabilisation. Sound is ok. A downside of the sony is that it takes time to process photos, so it is not immediately ready Forum: Tell Me
Been there on Saturday. I had a wonderful time. Highlights to me were Edith Grove, which was exactly like I always pictured their flat; the backstage area with Keith and Ronnies guitar racks; and the Recording studio where you get to mix the different tracks yourself of a number of songs yourself.
I was assured the guitars in the rack are the real deal. I could not believe it but the 72 custom Forum: Tell Me

I'm particularly fond of Undercover. Every gig is a party and musically they are close to the real thing. Go see them if you get a chance.

I've seen FLip the Switch a few times in the past, but they moved on to do other things (the guitarist, Matthijs, used to be very actively participating in guitar conversations on this board). Forum: Tell Me
