Cleveland is an easy 3 hour drive from Buffalo. Also a short ride from Detroit and Pittsburgh. 5 hours from Toronto. Plenty of places to stay. Plenty to do around town. The only negative of the last show I saw, in Pittsburgh in 2021, was the crowd's lack of energy. The band had 'it' still.

Someone has been very busy. I look forward to retiring just to be able to spend time with music. This working life has made it hard the last several years. Thanks for all the posts. I also missed CD1. Possible report?

Thanks for the upload. I agree, we may very well need something fun and uplifting to listen to...often...in 2023. I only saw the B-52s once, opening for The Who in 1982 in Orlando, in a rowdy, super drunk, violent crowd. First time and only time I have left a show a little early over worries about a crowd. Fights breaking out everywhere. The B-52s did not get very far into their set when

I 100% agree Doxa. A labour of love it flows smoothly, with good interpretation of good songs. I like that they chose some relatively more obscure numbers, too. Not trying to out-do anyone, just play what they love. I would love to have their next record be another cover album. More blues, maybe even acoustic with Keff, Ronnie and Mick only.

The boys had done some incredible songs with social commentary/message before. But the lyrics, music, vocal delivery on this were just a very very weak effort - a throwaway song. Recently married, and with my very first CD player, my wife surprised me with the brand new CD the day it was released. I fell in love the CD player technology that I could instantly skip to the next song as I listene

Production sounds dated but I have always liked the track. It works. The album was an improvement over Emotional Rescue, had some interesting grooves and subject matter. Production sounds dated, as it does on a lot of albums of the era. Looking back, the wheels on the bus were getting wobbly, but the bus was still running. The bus fell apart on Dirty Work

Thanks for posting. What an amazing show it must have been to Stevie and his amazing band as he was putting out some of his best work, and close to exploding, and then the Stones we were doing their best work. Chills.

Thank you for posting Pittsburgh to WeTransfer! I was at the show and loved it. The band sounded great. Yes Keef was a little off, took more breaks and let Ronnie take over in songs, but Ronnie had a great night. The crowd lacked energy (maybe as it was an OLD crowd...I'm 62 and felt young...lots of people there with walkers and scooters which was both good to see someone out trying to e

Thanks so much for this! I remember how excited I was that they were touring again. I remember thinking 78 might be the last. Then 81 was lots of fun and they seemed revitalized....then.....once Dirty Work hit, thinking they were done as a band. Guess I was wrong. : )

I have been a huge Who fan since I was 11 years old at heard Who's Next. Quadrophenia was life-changing - both with a story I could relate to, and the power and precision of the music. Entwistle's bass on The Real Me revealed a whole different way to use the instrument. I still get chills listening to it almost 50 years later. I've traveled to see The Who and, live, always pre

Keith's SINGING in Pittsburgh is the best I've heard in at a show I've personally attended (1978-2021). I thought his guitar playing was much better in 2015 - tighter, more focused on rhythm that gave the songs real muscle. My one show in 2021 was still better than the mid-2000's version of himself, but lots of times he kind of lost/left and Ronnie jumped to fill-in. Back to

In Pittsburgh, we ended up on Ronnie's side 2 sections from the stage 12 rows up. Nice seats but certainly not pit. Before the Stones came on ad during their set, ushers in the upper deck started moving people to the lower bowl, clearing out people in partly obscured sections of the upper deck. The closest floor section to us has maybe 30 people in it, instead of the maybe 200 that it ha

Have Lucky Dips here, too. I booked a hotel when this date was still just a rumor, and could have cancelled if needed. But watch prices as things get closer, prices could come down. Use a site where you can set price alerts for when something comes into your range. Hotels asking $400 now may drop if bookings aren't flying in. It does not seem that many tix are selling the last 2 weeks.

Seeing, hearing lots of good things from vibe to performance. Brown Sugar seems to have been retired, now if they'd only do the same with Miss You (and for me, Satisfaction, which for me, has never been stellar live). One week to Pittsburgh

I am so sick of the whining about Steve Jordan not being worthy. The guy filled in for Charlie in the studio with at least the Dirty Work album. Others filled in for Charlie in the studio on IORR, You Can't Always Get What You Want, Tumbling Dice, and several other songs - many they play regularly live - ever Charlie trying to emulate Kenny Jones or Jimmy Miller. Not sure about any of you,

Satisfaction has maybe always sucked live since maybe 1966. Works as the last song of the encore, as a cue to leave before it's over.

guessing because getting into Canada from the US via ground transport is difficult and who knows if the border could close again. I am also guessing the inability of the US to let Canadians in is what killed a Buffalo show. for most big events in Buffalo, from NFL football, NHL hockey to concerts, Canadians make up a significant portion of the crowd.
