It's beyond time to get excited about the tour! The Las Vegas show will be #17 or 18 for me since 1978 (I'm a little blurry). I'm really stoked about Mick Taylor playing with Keith & Ronnie. The Midnight Rambler from the PPV was stellar. I do hope they let Lisa Fischer do Gimme Shelter. She's an awesome singer & whilst Lady Gaga, Florence et al did a good job @ the ear

I'm just saying that he has been in the band a long time. Many shows & albums. I love both Ronnie & Mick Taylor. (& Brian Jones for that matter). Ronnie & Mick are both fine musicians. I hope we get plenty of all 3 guitars playing together. I think both Some Girls & Tatoo You have aged pretty darned well. I will grant you the during the Taylor years the band was at the to

I'm hoping for all 3 guitars for part of the show. I don't think there should be any discussion about Ronnie being a true Stone. He's been in the band longer than Brian Jones & Mick Taylor combined. & I love his playing especially with the news that he's sobered up. He was fantastic on the 40 Licks tour. I saw one show on the Bigger Bang tour where he was out of it but

Moonlight Mile

I saw them do Worried About You @ the Hard Rock during the 40 Licks tour. Fantastic! That was a special weekend. The Joint one night followed by MGM the next night featuring Sticky Fingers. Can't You Hear Me Knocking blew me away & a stripped down Brown Sugar on the small stage. I have high hopes for this year. in Vegas. I wasn't going to do it but my inner demons/angels got the bet

I've seen 3 maybe 4 shows @ MGM (I'm a little fuzzy, haha) & 1 @ the Hard Rock. The ticket situation down there is always very fluid. On the bridges connecting the hotels & on the walk down to the arena. I bit the bullet & bought a silver hot seat, which actually is a really good spot for me & some physical limitations. 3rd row of sec 115. Given the size of the venue &am

I would be very happy with a good "Loving Cup". From leftfield wish (Mick Taylor factor): "Moonlight Mile". There is a fantastic cover of that on Youtube by the Flaming Lips. My favorite non-Stones band.

When Motley Crue opened in Seattle, there was a great Spinal Tap moment. They were doing their big, ugly power ballad with just Vince Neil & Tommy Lee playing keyboards. Vince did a big "C'mon, everybody sing along..." trip. Was met by deathly silence. You could've heard a pin drop. Was very funny. Other openers good & bad I've seen: Sheryl Crow (fantastic!). Life

I have seen some great opening acts with the Stones. Peter Tosh & Solomon Burke come to mind immediately. Also have seen some not so great openers for them. Third Eye Blind, Motley Crue (sorry, just not my cup of tea & I like some metal). Unless it's like Buddy Guy, Jeff Beck or maybe Gary Clarke Jr I think I'd prefer just to see the Stones play. I like the idea of 2.5 hours lik

I don't have Citi card but I just got a pretty good ticket on ticketmaster Silver Hot ticket. 1 section from stage, a little up but very good. Little more than $85, haha, but its a holy thing.

The show is still up on the AEG & MGM websites. Good to be back on this site! Been awhile. I went ahead & booked air/hotel for that weekend. I'm from Seattle & as everyone knows we got burned. I've seen the Stones 3 times @ MGM & it is an excellent venue. I'm going down there by myself, so I figure I'll come up with a ticket by hook or by crook. Saw Elton John
