interesting question. st. louis, 2006. but really unfair to claim just one best. aragon, tower, roseland. london, 1st show, 2007. chicago every tour since somegirls. best city to see 'em in. san francisco, closely followed by boston. slane castle will always be the most unique show. out of 75 shows i'd say 60 have blown the top of my head off. world's GREATEST rock a

opening night in chicago "anybody seen my baby" had great guitars. if they re going to do expanded versions of albums what would be interesting would be putting out the "mick" mixes and the "keith" mixes of album. keith always said better versions of the song were left in the can. i don't think he ever took ownership of what the "dirt brothers" did

check out the guy above mick heaving the ping pong balls out of the box. bet they did THAT only once. really liked the 25 X 5 doc back in '89. i'll like the new movie but it's hard to see how they cover 50 years in 120+ minutes. the LICKS tour doc in four flicks is an hour and for me they left out lots of interesting stuff. coulda been three hours alone.

how much more construction is needed until barclay center is finished? that could be a clue as to an announcement. plus, a press conference for the shows and tickets being avaliable are two different things. want to see a london show. this waiting is a drag. man, if that stinking monkey is effing with me i am gonna be pissed!

i expect to be BLOWN AWAY!! or not. the SOME GIRLS disc did not have some songs people were looking for. how about this box set has munich hilton, fiji jim, ect and some other songs on a separate disc with the two new ones. mick has gone over a lot of stuff for the two expanded albums. and what if one of the recently recorded songs is mega kick-ass, a la start me up or jumpin' jac

i think those london prices could be do-able. same for brooklyn. this will be a hot event for celebrities, the hollywood crowd. just charge them $10,000 a ticket and have them occupy the luxury suites where they can be waited on hand and foot. hold an after-show bash where they have chance to hob-nob with the ROLLING STONES! bam! done! these people pay $10,000 for a dinner. the stones playing

can't connect due to zero computer skills, but stones twitter account says all rumors are false. not in paris, not rehearsing, not planning to play.

great pic!! very close to where i was. 75,000 attended but from my viewpoint i would have guessed around 300. this shot perfectly captures the sun setting in the west. remember thinking how old the stones looked with the sun beating down on them like that. plus how could mick wear black in that heat, july 8th. they went on around 5:15 and were done around 7:15.

it would be better for mick and all of us if he just got a kareoke machine and sang the best songs off "hot rocks".

didn't keith play some acoustic guitar when he did his book interview for CBS sunday morning. anybody got that clip? plus, i saw slane castle and was on the b-stage rail for the first O2 show. it was great. they were all very happy. it seemed then that they could have gone on. the rumor was they would play small "winter 1973" tours of 10+ shows every year going forward. they ne

so the way i read the article is, keith can't pass the insurance physical.? which makes me wonder. were they really going to go on the road in 2010 but cancelled because they thought the economy was still really bad. and was there really a tour set for 2011 but they backed out because the promoters started to sue each other. personally i just don't see multiple nights in major

not to get into a flame war, i like your stuff a lot and you know the stones very well. but i've been to both places, too. so one way to identify the location is the PA. did LA have it on the stage like they do in this picture? plus, never saw this picture until recently in a MOJO, or uncut, or classic rock, whatever and they identify the town as phoenix. also just noticed. look at the se

that's not the LA Forum. it's phoenix veterans memorial coliseum. notice the empty seats. phoenix is the only town on the '69 tour that did not sell out. they didn't play the valley of the sun again til the '81 sun devil stadium date.

great photo's!! was just as close in chicago july 8th but on woody's side, which is nice because you can see into charlie's kit. mick wore the same black pants too, in 90 degree heat. very overpowering to be that close and have what seems like 200 people at the show. never did get why they went on in late afternoon and were done over an hour before the sun went down, but "
