I remember the sheer amazement and exitement when I saw the Stones in '89 with that awesome stage huffin' and puffin' smoke before the boys took the stage. Continental Drift was thumping out of the sound system.....and BAM! A huge flash of light, and Keith starts into Start Me Up. The lights were all coordinated by computer, spinning, rotating and flipping in unison. It was like a giant sprawling urban oasis. I actually got to sneek up the back stairs and check out Ronnie's side for awhile the next day (was setting up at an adjacent convention room)-until a giant fellow appeared out of nowhere, grabbed me by the shoulder and escorted me back down- very politely I might add) It was one giant beast of a stage and every bit as cool as the lotus stage IMO. |
