Wow, so the very small theatre/promo gigs aside, we are talking basically 17 years for a standard concert to not feature Miss You i.e. Bigger Bang - and that's every main show since their 2012 comeback! Hopefully this demonstrates that, if they wanted to, they could rotate the warhorse section some more without causing outrage. The reviews have still been great - and I think the same wou

The morning after attending the night before and still so delighted with the show. Bitch and Heartbreaker great additions, but for me it was about Keith in the 2nd half of the show - just incredible. I think Whole Wide World is a better song for them to perform than Mess It Up - I really like Mess It Up but I think Mick struggles a bit more vocally on that one compared to Whole Wide World,

Keith was unreal. He was absolutely taking control of songs... I was just fixated on him from my side seat. He bossed the stage especially from Rambler onwards. He prowled out to end Rambler, nailed every inch of Gimme Shelter, and then restarted Satisfaction after it ended! Totally immense. He was chatting with Ronnie, Mick and Steve and looked like he was having a great time. Some of

Don't be in ANY doubt... this is the show Keith returned. The second half he was absolutely on FIRE! Running the show. Absolutely amazing.
Forum: Tell Me

Can anyone else confirm Bitch and LARS were rehearsed? Wondering whether we will get Wild Horses again or whether that's a rehearsal in advance of Boston. Guess we will find out soon!
Forum: Tell Me

Wonder who thry will structure it. I think Tumbling Dice will move earlier, HTW to the first half and slot Rambler in the 2nd? Pure speculation, anyway, exciting stuff. Enjoy everyone.

Keith went through Tell Me Straight again...let's hope!
Forum: Tell Me

And now... the one you've never seen before...yeah. I'm talking about the Midnight Rambler...
Forum: Tell Me

They are currently soynd checking Wild Horses - no joke! Quite crazy if that is played again tonight.
Forum: Tell Me

Will write a more comprehensive review tomorrow. Initial thoughts: solid show. Not sure we really need the second coming of IORR. Keith's Sympathy solo was better. Start Me Up was a clean intro. Mick worked the crowd but lots of phones (as he commented before YCAGWYW). Really enjoyed my spot in block 142 having a side-ish view of the stage - could still see Steve but not chuck or Chanel/
Forum: Tell Me

Just to clarify... I think Keith missed his cue for Honky Tonk Women solo so was just playing the chords for first bit, then realised, they had a little laugh between them, and then Keith played the second half of the solo.
Forum: Tell Me

Made it into the stadium. Lucky dips, pulled 142 side seats - not a bad view though! Heard a few screams as people had pit tickets from the LD desk but most people I polled on the way out of the queue had seats of some description.
Forum: Tell Me

I think they are missing a trick by omitting the reprise part of the song.... Without Midnight Rambler at concerts Mick doesn't have a ready-made opportunity to have a "oh yeah" call and response with the audience... I feel he could use the reprise of SSOH to do exactly that... take it right down and then build it right up again. Need not be a long reprise then into Satisfaction.

Well, just for fun. First thoughts: 1. Hackney Diamonds - Get Close/Mess It Up/WWW 2. Tattoo You - Slave/Worried About Yoj 3. Bridges to Babylon - Out of Control/Saint of Me/Theif in the Night/ How Can I Stop 4. Voodoo Lounge - Love Is Strong/ I Go Wild 5. Steel Wheels - Mixed Emotions / Slipping Away 6.

Hi everyone! I will complete a full show review write up but for now... please enjoy Angry and Little T&A recorded from PIT B Little T&A Angry Grant
Forum: Tell Me

In PIT B... semi crowded but definitely been worse. Liking the stage set up so far.. only potential problem could be the side lighting is pointing forwards towards the pit and when they put in on full blast (particularly white and yellow) you can't really see a thing. Definitely worse than on other tours... but let's hope they use that effect sparingly!

Face value pit tickets available right now !!!!

I did wonder. I think sadly Buddy may be on the wrong side of the line now when it comes to performing and may go the way of Chuck Berry. Would imagine they would announce soon anyway.
Forum: Tell Me

No opening acts announced yet but Buddy Guy is playing Austin the Saturday before opening night Sunday in Houston... potential I think.
Forum: Tell Me

Angry and Tell Me Straight - I think at every show Whole Wide World, Bite My Head Off and Sweet Sounds of Heaven - heavy rotation Outside chance at some shows: Mess it up (because it's the other single and radio play) and I am hoping Get Close gets a look in - think it's a cool riff for Keith and audiences who don't even know the song could quickly pick it up for a sing a lon

The ticket prices and availability are updating constantly - and have done even more so in the last week than the last few months. I have been tracking a couple of shows nearly every day, they released blocks/rows of tickets at different points since general sale - a couple of indicators that I think things are moving in the right direction for people wanting standard price tickets: 1) The

Do we sense if there is any chance the stones will take both Sasha and Chanel on tour - both back-up and then one person sings Gimme Shelter and the other sings Sweet Sounds of Heaven? I thought in Milan when the stones had 3 backing singers is sounded really good so would def welcome multiple vocals
Forum: Tell Me

I meant Chanel's own instagram post had been deleted - not anything to do with IORR posts I'm not going to read too much into the jambase article leaving out Bernard.
Forum: Tell Me

The post about Chanel joining them next year is now deleted... would imagine there may be some lessons being learnt about what to share and when! In some ways it's not surprising. Chanel probably sang GS better on her one shot in Milan than Sasha has done before or since, and has clearly ingraciated herself with Ronnie and Sally. However, I think on some songs on the HD live from NYC her voc
Forum: Tell Me

OK, this song has definitely grown on me. On first listen to the album my gut reaction was this was the weakest song... but I like it a lot more. I think the only thing that really bugs me is in the intro - I know, I know, classic Keith... however, it is just too similar to Tumbling Dice. I wish they had entered the song a different way so it is a little more unique. It suffers the same problem

If Damon is lucky enough to still be singing and performing when HE is 80, I am sure his thinking may mature...

Yeah, just heard the remix. Everything I love about the song is gone. Tempo feels slower, its more minor, Miss you kind of bass/beat, micks falsetto "i tell no lies" removed too. Stick with the original! (Which I love)

I am afraid this also gets my vote as weakest song of the album. Not bad, its no sweet neo con, its just middling.
