artistic mediocrity imho is also an "obscure" number played once or twice in a tour and like a karaoke from the undusted cd. also I see more artistic mediocrity in the way they interpret some songs (SFTD is the perfect example) than in the way they choose the list a good setlist for me: add more warhorses, divide them in 2 sets to be played on and off, choose a good but limited nu

good thread! agree with different recording of charlie agree with the "more space" thing i will ask them exactly what mick doesn't want to do > come with ideas then jam in the studio until the song pop out keep the jamming for overdub overdub a lot because that is the better stones sound not the so-called "live sound" leave the live sound for the live set

"Its the women want to hear the hits. Most (not all) women are content with hearing the hits and seeing them. A lot of men are more serious about the music" that's ridicolous "Scrap the stadiums and play shows in arenas and theatres for multiple nights." i agree with this, and hopefully the slower ticket sales this time will oblige them to do so. The risk is: the

when i had problems with the boards' policy I chose to respect bv's request and emailed him. He has always responded. Also I am not very fond of banning people out boards. Truth is that a rule to be such has to be the same for everyone. So, I have seen BV posting his warnings repeatedly so to make sure people who were breaking his rules got the message.

they've always played some more songs on opening night(s) but i think that the main setlist rule is: if MR is on then it's 20, if not then it's 21 (and the song added - always in the same spot - is PI sometimes they play MR and PIB together but then they drop something else I think the point for them is to stick to a 2hrs o'clock show We usually get 20 songs because they t

there's no back and forth with numbers on the setlist it is just 21 when they don't play MR (and they always add PI, and 20 with MR it's always been this way so far.

i wonder why they should play a never played before jem to that crowd. You assume that because it was a theatre and people have spent thousands, they deserve a treat like they were hardcore fans.
