Gold rings on ya Debbie! I remember Mick saying "See you next year" when I first saw the band in '82 and they didn't come back to Ireland for 21 years. Was Miami the last time? I don't know, nobody does:

My cousin met Mick and Charlie in a bar in Miami in the late 70s. They drank rum punches and talked about travel (he was visiting from the UK). Stars were more accessible in those days.

This was recorded last year: Just missed it -- I was staying across the street, but had to get back to London that day.

I was at that show. It was great to see the band in a relatively small venue -- much better than Tokyo Dome. My favorite of that year was the first gig at the Point in Dublin -- a fantastic crowd. Pity there aren't any videos of that one.

My first Stones concert was the day before the Leeds gig: Remember Mick complaining early on about monitors that "sound like shit". He also said "See you next year", but they didn't come back to Ireland until 2003.
