I like it too. Should be as powerful as Angie. If they can catch up audience with that song : great.
Forum: Tell Me

SOL : it's a great ballad in the tradition of Angie, She's a rainbow. The guitars are perfect . Charlie and Darryl great also. Should be a hit. RJ : pure Keith sound in the vein of Exile. Reminds me of Rocks off. Oh no : should have been the choice for a single though I understand that SOL has a more powerful selling attraction. Wait with great impatience the release. Enthusiasm is
Forum: Tell Me

Maybe I am an old person, but I deeply feel that SOL is a great ballad the Stones ( and not Mick by himself) have recorded all along their career. Lyrics are simple but fits perfectly well with the music. The only I am questionning is who is palying the electric guitar part : Keith or Mick copying Keith.
Forum: Tell Me

So everyone is betting on a unique show in France and/or Belgium. Oh la la .... I will have to travel more than expected.
Forum: Tell Me

Yes,finally some hope . But we will see how they make up in Europe after 5 or 6 months of touring all over the globe. But the age is something terrible... Does Charlie will want to perform another world tour after this one. As a fan I would like to, but as a human being I would not like to see the Stones performing on a wheel chair or underperforming . I can imagine them being on stage every year
Forum: Tell Me

I think that this song has the inner power of being a hit single . More than Rough Justice. Who is playing the electric guitar part on the background typical of Stones slow tempo song. I hesitate beween Keith and Mick.

Are there some speculative dates venues in those 2 countries.
Forum: Tell Me

Thanks for this update. I will be there with family and friends. No Stones fan can miss the last London performance in front of a big audience.
Forum: Tell Me

They just will stop and make occasional concerts in small clubs in London, NY or Paris to remember the good old days. MLaybe Keith will called Sir Keith Richards ...... !!!!!!
Forum: Tell Me

Ronnie as far as I am concerned has never be a RS. Just a go-between beween Keith and Mick( what is important or was important ata certain point of time), even though he has got for sure some talent. But definitively not a Stone, not in his mind. A Faces....Yes.
Forum: Tell Me

So, the New record and Fenway will be the Lord of Justice . Agree on that. Money don' t prove anything at that level. Or we must admit that Céline Dion is the greatest artist of all times ( after the fab four). Audience is more of comparable. And responsiveness to ticketselling also. To that point given the $ 450 charged on a marginal basis, U2 is beginning to over pass the Stones. But Mi

Gazza wrote : "The sum of the band outweighs the four individual parts that make it up. A hidden ingredient or Factor X, if you like. " So it is Mick + Keith + Brian + Bill +Charlie + Taylor. Houps : I counted 6 individuals ( 3 of them must be in the very near proximity ).
Forum: Tell Me

Street of love is a nice ballad. Full Stop. Amid, what I hope and guess some good Keith riffs on other songs we had the cance to hear up to now.. We all need this kind of stuff to sing along on a highway. This is part of the Stones legacy and attracted to them part of their fans .
Forum: Tell Me

Decisive point is as we all know : 08/21 at Fenway. Stones or U2.

My brother just mail them to me . a) I think RJ is of great Mick and Keith. Maybe I prefered No, No do'ntsay it again. But 2 greats songs for the Stones. Goods Vibrations for an old Stones fan b) SOL : Mick"s pure musicality. At some point of time of day one likes to hear these nice melodies<; A potential Hit .!!!!! But anxious to hear the entire album like in the old days. To

Forum: Tell Me

You are too harsh on Keith. He did a good play on forty licks even if it is not at the same level as during the good old days 70-80. As for songwriting, you are right. Not a single good album since Steel Wheels : 15 years old. !!!!

Agree with tonim, Vertigo is a real challenge for the Stones but they will solve that. Better do it, Keith ?
Forum: Tell Me

All we can hope is that the Stones will perform as well as U2 . Members of my familly attended U2 in Europe ( Belgium and France) this year and reported it was a great show. As good as Forty Licks as a show even if Keith, Charlie and Mick cannot be compared.
Forum: Tell Me

I think you are wrong. All 8 MSG for U2 were sold out within 2 hours. Macca sold out his 5 MSG in the same elapse of time. The Stones have not yet filled their MSG. So what about the 2 others scheduled in January. Anyway, should they cut their tix by a half, they would have made 2 Giants ( Springstee did 5 of them). Stones are not made essentially for Arenas but Stadiums where they deliver their

I am in total agreement with Havo. Can' t anybody tell the Stones to cut the ticket prices by half. I feel even more frustated and angered by the fact that U2 will tonigt and tomorrow fill the Stade de france in Paris: 80 000 x 2 audience.Empty Stadiums for the Stones. Youngs having not the possibility for once in their lives to listen to the greatest R&R band . Shame on us if us fans c

The States visited which would make 80 % of the expected audiences are : NY, Ca,Ma and Illinois. I of course do not include Canada. 4 States !!!! I hope we will be more lucky in Europe.

Has anyone fan of statistics compared audiences States by States between those 2 tours.Something like capacity / population . There seems to be some stabilty with NY, California, Connecticut, Pennsylvania. But Texas !!! Florida !!! No stadium this year up to now. And these are 2 rich states who can afford USD 450 per seat. Washington : 2 arenas. Kind of a pity somewhere. Better live on the east

Agree with Gazza, Continental Drift is a pearl only the Stones can bring in R&R. Saint of me was also powerful on stage and record. Someone called that the "haunting melody".
