It was the web choice in Philadelphia, 1998. When Keith stepped up and did the "She got a mind of her own" line, it was goose bumps all over, the place went crazy. One thing I will never forget from that show.

If you piece all the different interviews and different jokes together, it sounds to me like Keith has said, "no holograms while I'm alive and here," and then whatever happens after that, happens, if it happens. They seem to have an agreement that once someone bows out or dies, the others can do whatever they want and decide to continue or not. They continued after Charlie, with hi

My friend who bought Detroit by mistake, because of the mixed up links/buttons, just got his tickets refunded. They wouldn't transfer them to Charlotte (the city he wanted) but he did get his money back. So if that happened to you, contact Ticketmaster. You have a window of time (I think until tonight) to get a refund if it was because of the Detroit SNAFU.

Yeah about the New Orleans date, the other night I spoke to my Jazz Fest source who is pretty well plugged in to the booking side of things. I asked them about the Stones playing the Fest, and although I didn't get a direct, flat-out verbal "NO!" as an answer, it was pretty obvious from the reaction I got to the question, that I was barking up the wrong tree, and it's not part

I don't know if it's truly a factor, but he had sorta botched the intro to "Happy" a couple of times, before it got more or less dropped. He played it on Patti's birthday (March 17, 2016 in Mexico City) and dedicated it to her, then right after that he kind of butchered the intro chords pretty badly. Almost as bad as Scarfgate at Hyde Park.

I have to wonder if the actual tape boxes literally got mixed up and jumbled together, as the band worked on things, and moved from place to place, over the many many years. It's so baffling. Back on the Exile deluxe set, "Title 9" was clearly not Exile-related, it was much earlier track, and now "Gimme Shelter" with what's pretty clearly Ron Wood on guitar, shows up

Terry Reid's The Other Side of the River consisting of outtakes from his The River album was released by Light In The Attic in 2016 and it did pretty well in terms of sales.

His music also appeared in Rob Zombie movies which gives him a certa

Not their best moment of that era. I think a different take, done slightly more upbeat, might have had potential. Something closer to "Shine A Light" in feel, could have, would have, should have, worked well.

This one is an interesting scenario because, pushing back the New Orleans show by a day for the storm was actually no big deal -- the stage and lighting rigs and everything else was indoors, inside the Superdome -- even if the storm had been bad one, the stage and rigging still would have been inside the Dome and away from the wind and rain.

I think the "Nicky Hopkins tape" indicates the horns were done at Nelcotte. Nicky was at Nelcotte, but he apparently wasn't in L.A. The tape that Nicky had, that surfaced a few years ago, has prominent horns on many of the instrumental tracks.

Lately I compile a playlist and watch them for free on Youtube, a couple days after the concert.

Now that the tours are shorter, each individual show is more special. I'm actually more interested in each ind

I know this idea is way too "out there" for the Stones machine to even contemplate, but they should release soundboards of every single show, as downloads, a day or two after the show, like many other major bands do. At a reasonable price, I would buy them ALL. I bought several from the Who on their last go-round, and I'm not even really THAT BIG of a Who fan. I bought the Who show

Not really. Closest thing I'd compare it to is Handsome Girls from 1978. Those are both made from professionally mixed multitrack broadcast recordings. Most other bootlegs from that era are soundboard or audience recordings.
