I listened to your version of LSTNT right through twice - enjoyed it a lot! If you do manage to do a live gig in the London area I am definitely interested.

Don't think there are many IORRians at this one. The only ones I know of are Bjornulf (obviously!) and Latvianinexile. I suppose it's not so easy to get to.

These pictures really are terrific and take us there. I'm excited from afar! I know I'm going to get next to no sleep tonight but hey, stuff it, you only live once That reminds me - time to stick an extra beer in the fridge I notice that the "New Stage" looks remarkably like the one they used in 2014 & 15 with a colourful lick of paint added .

LatvianinExile, Brilliant photos as usual. You really know how to 'take us there'. I'm aware you're in the travel industry and it shows If I'm not mistaken, Picture 3 of your 5 seems to show tickets still available in all sections ?

Quotecrawdaddy To be honest Gregor, the sound that Saturday afternoon was excellent all the way round Telenor Arena. I walked all the way round and if anything, it was slightly better at other end of Arena from where they all drove in and out. I remember it all so well as I bumped into Chuck and his wife soon after leaving you near The Stones hotel. We also saw Mick Taylor having a stroll as

Interesting floor configuration - 1. Very small VIP Section 2. Passagway for Security 3. Larger 'Golden Circle' 4. Reduced GA Perhaps a sign of things to come ? But not for Argentina where the whole floor is GA with no FoS! Nowhere else in the World still does that for Stones gigs. The last time they had GA on the floor at a UK stadium show was Edinburgh '99. I w

For we fans, all is well in the World when the Stones are on tour, even if we're not there ourselves... My guess is that tonight's audience will be very excitable as is the norm in SA

Given that it's their 1st South American visit in 10 years I guess a sizeable queue has built up already with people camping out overnight to stake a place. I usually do the camp out all day thing nowadays. I don't mind it at all - it's fun I've only ever done 1 overnight - Hyde Park 1 and I still only made 5th or 6th row...

QuoteLoose Mick has got such fantastic hair in the video. I know some claim it is a wig but it clearly isn't... just wish I knew the secret. Agreed! And what about Ronnie ? His hair's like a carpet, it's so thick. When you see old photos of Ronnie during his time with the Faces, he's instantly recognisable. He's pretty much had the same hairstyle throughout

Quotecrawdaddy I think I'm right in saying if the gig starts about 9 p.m. it will be 2 a.m. in western Europe and 1 a.m. in U.K. I will probably get up about 7 a.m. Thursday morning here in Spain, and start from page 1 and slowly make my way through the reviews and pics etc. I envy all of you there , but I will be over in Rio from Feb 11th and looking forward to my 4 gigs in Brasil.
