At least at some of the Voodoo Lounge shows, Ron Wood introduced Mick as "the man who redefined sex." maybe some sociological truth there.

"It was during the Rolling Stones' third American tour that Richards dreamed up the legendary three-chord guitar riff that opens "Satisfaction". Richards had no faith in the song as a single and was worried people would think his intro was a copy of Martha & The Vandella's "Dancing in the Street". This riff would also turn up in later songs like "Jumpin

Quotestoneswashed77to compare rod stewart to mick jagger is not really very nice to mr. jagger. it´s nowhere near the same league. apples and oranges, as they say. Rod couldn't carry "Midnight Rambler" I can't picture mick doing "Lost Paraguayos" but they can both, however, do Love in Vain.

QuoteJumpingKentFlashI just got this from a friend. It's great, but what strikes me is how much better it becomes when Keith comes on. KInd've like the LIve Aid show in the U.S. in 1985(?) -- major acts, but it didn't really take off till till Mick hit the stage.

I remember him nimbly dodging what looked to be an empty half-pint liquor bottle tossed at him during Greensboro 1975 show. Picked it up, put it on top of one of the amps, went on playing. All Part of the job....

what, no giant video screen above the stage? no special effects? no troops of backup singers and musicians? All guitarists on stage playing their guitars? Dam, looks like a real rock n roll show or something...

QuoteElmo LewisYeah, Cooley came out with updates as the crowd got antsy. Lots of fun. BTW, Phillips is such an improvement over The Omni! More bathrooms, for one thing. Yes, the air was thick with anticipation, tension, and abundant reefer that night! Phillips is a great place for a show, I agree.

QuoteElmo LewisSaw the Atlanta show (May 10?) - my first time seeing any Stones. The band was late arriving (so they said, it coulda been a dope thing). Piano Red came out and played to keep the crowd pacified. The NB were sloppy as hell but tons of fun! The stage was white with big red areas (to look like blood, I think). Ronnie and Keith shared a "Y" shaped mike stand. Stanley Clar

At least in the states, 81 was the last year in which attending a Stones show was still kind've a counter-cultural thing to do (corporate sponsorship by Jovan notwithstanding), it wasn't like some american college football game to which you take the whole family to soak in the atmosphere/live an essentially wholesome experience. The music was rough, down and dirty, outlaw drug-usin
