Rolling Stones Perform Bombay Concert
By The Associated Press
BOMBAY, India (AP) -- Thousands of fans waved posters and shouted, "We love you Mick Jagger!" as the Rolling Stones opened their Bombay concert Monday with their hit "Brown Sugar."
The city's Brabourne Stadium, which holds 25,000 people, was sold out for the Bombay show, the band's second appearance in India after Friday's concert in the southern city of Bangalore.
Piyush Prasanna, a 38-year-old advertising manager, bought his ticket far in advance. He said the concert was a "trip down memory lane" for him and his former college friends.
The Rolling Stones, with their entourage of 150, canceled what would have been their first concerts in China because of a deadly flu-like disease that has infected at least 2,400 people worldwide and killed at least 100 people, mostly in Asia.
Travel warnings from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization about severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, prompted the band to cancel performances in Shanghai and Beijing scheduled before the India shows
No cases of the disease have been reported in India.
The band's next performance is set for Wednesday in Bangkok, Thailand

Brabourne, Bombay setlistBrown Sugar, IORR, Start Me Up, Don't Stop
All Down the Line, Angie, YCAGWYW, Monkey Man
Miss You, Tumbling Dice, (Intros), Slipping Away
Happy, SFTD, Midnight Rambler
GS, YGMR, HTW
SFM, Satisfaction, JJF (encore) (Hope I have it right) Bigger, more
enthusiastic (and slightly older) crowd than Bangalore. People looked a
bit dazed when they played Monkey Man, however. Some people at the back
said Mick's voice was drowned out. They also said Keith looked as if he
had to sit for a bit, but I was right in front and couldn't see that.
When he said he'd sing Happy he said he'd have to go to the back to wake
Ronnie up. I thought Mick ended SFTD just a couple of seconds too soon.
It was incredibly hot and sweaty; Keith threw his guitar pick a bunch of
times and once he put it on the security guard's head. Mick lost one of
his tongue pins during SFTD and it landed just near me but I couldn't
reach it unfortunately, though I did manage to throw a flower at Keith &
Mick too. Mick said quite a bit in Hindi, which he didn't do in Bangalore
and if that was intentional it was pretty politically correct of him.
There was an Argentinian guy next to me who kept singing an Argentinian
song between the Stones' songs, ! and Mick changed the words from "Puerto
Rican girls dying to meet you" to "Argentinian girls." He was also quite
a lot more salacious here than in Bangalore.Nandita |
