The Rolling Stones : 10:20pm - 12:10am
We were there at about 12.30; fortunately it was not that hot that you could expect being in Spain. So the waiting this time was more comfortable. No FOS section. At 18.30 the doors opened and we went straight ahead, Ronnie�s side this time. We catched 3rd row at the catwalk corner.
The show started at about 22.10 with the usual "Start me up". At the beginning the sound was not as good as in Barcelona, but it got better after a few songs. The setlist had no surprises except a long awaited "Ruby Tuesday", which we liked very, very, much. Also we had again a really great version of CYHMK (instead of the Rambler) - perfect and bluesy harmonica by Mick and another great solo by Ronnie.
Keith� set was again "You got the silver" (thank you Keith!!!!) and "I wanna hold you" - this time he interpreted it really good. But Keith, you have so many more great songs - let�s hear some of them! What about "Connection"??!! Well, on with the show.....
We also really enjoyed to hear "Paint it black" again (although Mick missed some lyrics..). When Keith took off his guitar after the song he lost it and it fell down. When the stage was about to move to the B-stage there were some problems to get it started - nearly half of "It�s only Rock�n�Roll" was finished when it started moving. But the boys came back safe....
This was show number 8 of this tour - see you all at number 9 in Lisboa!!
About the set, was good, they played "All down the line" for the first time in Spain , "I'll go crazy" is a great tribute with Lisa Superstar, "Ruby Tuesday" and "Paint it black" was pretty, I think that "Satisfaction" working best in the final set altough the crowd jumping and singing in any case.
Finally this was a super special concert for me. It was the first time that my son Sergio went to a concert of the Stones. We passed it very well and I am happy.
The next for me is Madrid.
