QuoteVoodooLounge13 QuoteJMARCOU A long time ago I noticed that rehearsed songs are much more appealing than songs performed on stage. I tend to agree with this. They rehearse a ton from their catalog, but when it comes to the real thing, it's puuuuuuuuuuuuuuure safety net. For me, all but a few warhorses can be retired and rotated out at this point. Break out new and different tracks

If they cover "Stay With Me" then they should also cover "Let's Work" and "999"

Quotetommycharles When Pino left the Who in 2015 it was to retire from the road, and he’s more or less stuck to that as far as I know. Cool that he stopped by the Stones rehearsal. Not true. Pino played with the Who until 2016. In 2017 he was already booked for a world tour with John Mayer so they had to find someone else. Pino is not like Darryl who works almost exclusively for the Stones

It's not about the stage itself like it used to be. It's about having screens as large as possible and having good content for the video show.

The purpose of "Not fade away" was never to pump up the audience. Its purpose was to create tension. The tension was then released with "Tumbling Dice".

Forum: Tell Me

Honestly - for IORR I actually think the 2009 Universal master is the best. Yes it's a bit on Viagra and has less dynamics but doesn't sound as dull and lifeless as other releases. It's probably the only album in the Stones catalogue that I prefer the Universal master. Give it a try.
Forum: Tell Me

I actually think the mix is quite good this time compared to other releases. Not perfect but good. The guitars are a bit loud but maybe they just listened to all the folks here always complaining that the guitars are too quiet. I like it but gotta admit it brings out the sloppiness in the guitar section. Especially Keith is noodling around a lot.

QuoteIrix QuoteStonedRambler Yeah but those special formats do not really play a role in the general public. Vinyl is a special format and doesn't really play a role in the general public? It does play some role of course (especially in sales since it is counted 1000x streams) but still the brickwalled Stereo mix is the one the vast majority of people will listen to.

QuoteIrix QuoteDoxa complaining - rightly IMO - about the brickwall is as useless It isn't. Listen to 'Hackney Diamonds' on CD, Digital or HiRes. Then listen again from Vinyl or Dolby Atmos.

With the "mini-tours" in recent years stage design always was a compromise between being economy and design. I can imagine if the HD tour is a bit bigger then we also might get a more special stage than on the Sixty tour.

Quotebakersfield Aren't single 'releases' just ploys to get radio stations playing the songs and thus keep the album afloat? I can't see any point in a physical single release without bonus tracks. These days that's how it is, yes.
