Anyone spotted any comments in interviews regarding going wireless on stage? First "wireless" tour must have been the 1981-82 tour. So, are there any comments from the band about this change after all those years being "connected" with the amps? Obviously this kind of technology gave the band new forms of mobility, especially Mick. But how did they cope with that, technically

First thing that came to my mind: "You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you might find, you get what you need". A simple way to epitomize our (western) way of life.Trading our needs for wants and eventually turning means into infinite, unsatisfied ends. "...But if we try sometimes, we might find...", that it is about a symbolically constituted ord
