I still have a ticket for the SD gig...but would prefer they cancel and play in England, it was fun taking the Eurostar from Paris and bumming around London before the 2018 show I attended! (although visiting their house on Edith Grove was a waste of time and I regret not going to Bill's Sticky Fingers!)

Quotebv Blame it on the virus. I don't see any large crowds allowed until there is a vaccine, and that will take a long time. It is sad, because we all love the Stones when they are best - live. Still, we do also love our older generations, and we need to protect them. That is more important than having large crowds. Here in Paris: June and July 2020 Aerosmith, Queen and Iron Maiden shows

Quotematxil Obviously it would be a good thing to change the lyrics in Brown Sugar and Some Girls. I'm against changing lyrics live (and on album, but that never happens post-release), unless it's for fun or to acknowledge a local city (for instance). In any case, Jagger's already changed and removed certain Some Girl lyrics (on the No Security tour and at the Shine a Light/Be

QuoteTeaAtThree That's precisely where you are wrong about the Dead, GasLightStreet. They sounded drastically different in different eras - not unlike the Brian Jones, Mick T, Ron Wood changes in sound. The Dead in 69, 72, 77, 89/90 are totally different. Some swear by 77 while others think back-up singer Donna ruins everything she touches. Others swear by the resurgence in 89/90 but howl

QuoteGasLightStreet They're still nowhere near as redundant as the Grateful Dead. Well, with around 187 official live releases out, there's bound to be a few that have similar - though not identical - songs in their sets. At least the Dead never played the same setlist (not even close!), they kept things fresh; whenever they played 3 nights in one city it was extremely rare for them

Quotemasseywinos I really liked No Security. Besides having the best cover ever, the newer material better than studio versions. And I like all the others even the Dave Mathews guest spot. I prefer the YaYas album cover a lot more, but I agree with the rest!

Quotestone66 After TY gets the deluxe/remaster/reissue treatment, then it gets depressing, because all that's left will be Undercover, Dirty Work, etc. I see what ur saying, but they haven't been doing them all chronologically, ie Some Girls before the Goat Head Soup reissue, etc. And Undercover is a pretty cool record too imho.

QuoteTumblinDice76 FrogSugar-years ago when the Some Girls reissue set came out, Jagger said in an interview that they still need to do Tattoo You and few others. So it appears, a special edition TY is planned but who knows when it will surface. Cool...I don't remember reading that :-) I guess I'll wait until the end of next year then.
