nasalwizard This is classic Keef....I am actually now enjoying Keith's mistakes but holy shit this is bad . The worst brown sugar intro was at the Amsterdam arena in 2003 probably the worst start to a stones concert ever and Keith never really recovered and made several other major screws ups that night !!

mrhipfl Yeah, BUT I made a recent discovery. Y'all remember how many people were giving Keith shit for the messed up "happy" intro? Well if you listen closely, it's actually Charlie that messes up. He comes in with the beat 1 bar too early. Observe:

Listen to the drums on a good intro:


and now Nijmegen:

Bruno Itīs true, Charlie did it!

Anyway, Happy should not be played anymore. The performances now are very tired, IMO.

Mel Belli I don't know. Sounds to me like Charlie got lost because Keith got lost first. Either way, it shouldn't have taken that long for Keith to recover. It was as though, as someone inside the Stones' camp told me, only half-jokingly, Keith was on a tranquilizer.

Where can one hear this intro?

Erik_Snow It's Keith and not Charlie who's to blame.
Keith kept one of the chords going for too long - so when Charlie came in - at what-would-have-been-the-right-time, Keith hadn't finished the intro
edit: no they're both to blame - just listen to the first "correct" chords - turn down the volume, and tap the beat with your foot....turn it up again - and nothing makes sense

And to think Brno is supposed to be one of the better shows this tour.
