Friends,
What a day! The Stones are rolling, turning out new licks and dusting off old tricks.
What a great feeling to know I'll be seeing them in Philly soon.
YEAH! |

Show start : 9:35 pm
Show end : 11:20 pm
Show review
Tickets were given out to approximately 250 people, some who waited 24 hours in line. Also, the night before at the rehearsal hall, approximately 50 tickets were given to regulars who had been hanging around the rehearsal hall for the past few weeks to see the Stones. Tickets were sold for $10 each and each person in line was allowed only 1 ticket. They had to provide photo ID, and were given a wrist band and ticket for their $10. When they arrive at the concert hall (which holds approximately 1,000 people), they have to provide their wrist band (which hasn't been removed or tampered with), their ticket and their photo ID.
The warm-up act was a band called "The Trews" from Canada. Great band. Hard hitting and fast rockers from start to finish. If there was any dust on the walls before they took stage it was all blown away when they finished. Great warm-up. Two guitars, one bass and drums. That's all it takes to make great rock'n roll. They even played louder than the Stones!
But we were all here for the Stones tonight... On time shortly after 9:30pm Michael Cohl had the great pleasure of yet again introducing the greatest rock'n roll band in the world doing a rehearsals club show in front of a lucky crowd in Toronto.
The stage was all in red. Stones red. On the left wall they had put up three hugh banners with the "Bigger Bang Tongue". The Stones tongue exploding in a big bang. And around the place they had placed a few posters promoting "A Bigger Bang". Those posters soon got into souvenirs for fans picking them down from the walls. The building had a small bacony for VIP's and family of the band, while the less than 1,000 lucky fans downstairs had open admission and could move around anywhere. Except for the fact that they all crowded up in the front of course.
Opening song was "Rough Justice". They played it like it has been performed for ages, but it was in fact the very first time it was performed live in front of an audience. Great rocker with a big punch from their new album. New look on stage. Bernard alone in front at the left. Chuck Leavell could hardly be seen at the far left. Then the four Stones. And Darryl on the far right.
"Live With Me" rocked.
Then "19th Nervous Breakdown" in a strange, almost ballad-like reggea version. Slower than in the original version. Still great and unique. But the crowd was sort of quiet on this one...
"She's So Cold". No more quiet crowd. They all went mad. A fast and hard-hitting version with Mick all over the stage. Just wish it will be permanent for the tour. What a great version!
"Dead Flowers". Just have to love it every time you hear it. Great solo by Ronnie.
Then Mick was all up front with a guitar. He started up the blues song "Back Of My Hand" from their new album. Playing the slide. Singing the deep blues like it was a club in Chicago with four people in the crowd only. Then he moved back after a while and left the 2nd part over to Ronnie. First time Mick was doing slide on stage? Well it was great and again it is kind of strage how great a new song is sounding, performed live for the first time ever.
"Ait't To Proud To Beg" is another one which is rocking the crowd and again you just have t love these guys doing such great songs!
Introductions. Lisa and Blondie have been very low profile. Only Bernard up front mostly.
Then Keith is doing his new song "Infamy". From the new album. Sort of reggea style. Still quite unique, and a great we all can hope they will keep in the set.
"Oh No, Not You Again". Better than the version performed at the press conference. Great song from the new album!
Then the Bob Marley & Peter Tosh song "Get Up, Stand Up". At first a song which was straight forward, but then Mick is starting to work the crowd with a great sing-a-long. Everybody is singing and dancing, a great, great song for any size crowd!
Another cover version coming up: "Mr. Pitiful" by Otis Redding.
Then, if you ever was not sure this was a Rolling Stones show, because you got so many new songs, you got three of the greatest: "Tumbling Dice", "Brown Sugar" and "Jumping Jack Flash". They had been on stage for 1h 45 minutes, but it felt like half an hour. How time flies when you have such a great show going. And they don't need to rehearse anymore. Not really. Just bring this show on to Boston, and all the fans will be more than happy.
