Funny how people here are struggling to talk the Stones' current ticket sales into a success when it is obviously not the case. A half empty stadium is a half empty stadium is a half empty stadium. Counting the total number of sold tickets does also not say a lot without considering the total number of shows; after all this tour is running since two years now. By that criteria, Bob Dylan

Of course, sold-out shows don't mean anything to them. And of course, they could not care less about half-empty stadiums because their income is guaranteed. I mean....really? Think twice....

Funny that nobody mentioned Too Many Cooks as a candidate for this album. It's an unreleased track, yes, but this would be the perfect opportunity to get it out - and Rhino should be experienced enough to sort out the legal things. As there is no further Stones involvement, I doubt that it would be considered for a future Stones archive project, it belongs to the "Jagger solo" cano

At the time, I read somewhere (possibly right here on on IORR!) that the iTunes-It's All Over Now was a "Stripped Outtake" - whatever that meant, either a live recording from the VL tour (Paradiso???) or a studio 'acoustic' take. Well, I believed that it would pop up somewhere one day, but it never did. And nobody seems to have it. Strange!

stoneswashed77, look, the thing with Keith is, it's all black and white only. black is he can't play at all, and white is that he's ferking great and probably better than ever. There's not much in between, like, 'just ok', 'quite good' - it's either totally bad or absolutely great. You Got The Silver is a perfect example. Reading the reviews abou

Great idea and a big challenge for the band AND the audience! All of the above setlists are real good but Too Tight must be included - a barnstorming uptempo rocker, musically more interesting than Hold On To Your Hat and Rough Justice.

Well, in Paris he was better than in Werchter, Nijmegen and Frankfurt - and all reports from Lyon so far indicate that he has worked his way out of this hole - whatever that hole was. Great to hear this and thumbs up for the rest of the tour!

Well, speaking in musical terms, he obviously has major problems with his timing (you call it "playing slower", but that's not exactly the point - playing in a slower tempo than the rest of the band would cause a total mess!), which is quite well documented in this "It's All Over Now" official video from Werchter - the soundtrack is excellent soundboard, one can hear
