I was so worried you never returned from Boston. I'm hoping, you can make it to NYC, in 12 days.
Was it the best Stones show you've attended?
Welcome back...
Have you heard Sweet Neo Con, Mick also has IBS! |

Thank you........I will be in New York for the 06 shows.....I heard 4 new songs at the Boston concert....RJ,ONNYA, Infamy, and BOMH.................................I enjoyed them all, but particularly liked BOMH. I will appear at other shows before New York but I am not sure as of yet which ones. |

Great to have you back. I was wondering how you judge the shows till so far. I reckon you are the one of the few persons on this board to have confidence in. I appreciate your opinion sir. |

This is my take.....the sound was the best since 89....Keith and Ronnie really focused and sounded very good. Jagger was great as always and Charlie was as steady as ever. The thing is, I don't listen to any post 78(and thanks to Throbby 81 boots) as IMO, they always sound dreadful. Thus, while my personal opinion was very positive, it may not trancend unto the boot. I thought Ronnie did a very admirable job, with Mick even encouraging him to move up to the front of the stage and play harder(at least that's how it appeared to me), and Keith was very solid...except he still does not play much when he does his set...."The Worst" was quite good. Overall, I highly reccommend attending if they play like this.....while the set-list is not great, (I am amazed YGMR has become a "war horse"), the performance was excellent. |

Thanks. Does Ronnie's guitar playing comes close to his (great) playing at the end of the seventies? He was remarkable in those days.

No................but far better than anything I have heard since 89. His was focused as did not clown around as much as in the past.....Keith, also, for the most part focused on playing and faced Charlie many times digging the grove. |

Welcome back Josh... good to hear that you are diggin' them and the tour. Good to know that the tour is not a bust.
How did Chicago Pug behave? Has he been kind and receptive?
You shall be greeted in São Paulo/Rio de Janeiro in the following hot summer. Don't worry, São Paulo is plenty of fancy, flamboyant, expensive hotels (see: Hilton, Hyatt)

I would have liked to have heard "All Down The Line" as that is a hallmark song for Keith and Ronnie as far as guitars...from reports, it came off well(?). By the way, for the encores, when Keith came out and started the opening riffs for YCAGWYW I felt like I was watching L&G for a brief moment, and you would not beleieve it, but they actually played IORR the hardest I've ever heard it since LYL.... |

you are misinformed my friend. The tour - so far - is an enormous bust!
• the song selection sucks
• the set list are stale and repetitive
• they insist on blowing up a giant Scoobee Doo tongue that is even gayer than any lycra fishnet shirt that Chuck Levell has worn.
• the ass clown circus is performing on EVERY number
hell, even Charlie has walked off-stage in disgust at what a bust this tour is! TWICE!
the tour is a bust and the only thing that can save it is to hire The Black Crowes to re-teach them how its supposed to be done
LONG LIVE THE 70s!!!!!

Also, extra supa dupa violence, police killing anyone, poverty, dozens of beggars every block, children 8 yrs stealing/shoting you for a pair of tennis, well, a butchery much worse than Iraq or Israel, with a biggest number of dead bodies/day. Rio is a bit worse.

Hey JB! IORR was incredible at the Hartford show as well.
Unfortunately the recording from opening night pales in comparison to the aural memory I have. It comes close at times, but I fear the taper may have been too far away. |

That's the Problem Throbby...the sound, which we know was great opening night, someho never quite makes it to the boot....there is no substitute for the live experience.
Anyway, great to meet you and Luxury and thnaks for all the discs....I wish I could have bought you more wine, but I know you had enough..LOL See ya again on tour!!!! |
