Gazza,
I know that! But I felt this is such a monumental moment in Stonesian history that it should be posted twice. If I'm correct, that means tonight, after 34 years, all of Sticky Fingers has finally been played live!!!  |

It is monumental.
It truly is.
Mick P. Jagger's Sway, after all these years.
Huge night in Stones history.
One of these shows, some lucky moofs will hear Sway/CYHMK back to smack. |

and once again mick has to pretend he doesnt know which album a song is from, great to hear it though, just a touch
too fast but a great version anyway

IMO, I think he does that because if the song fails live, presenting a lack of knowledge about the the song and it's history (ie. album or year it's from) would justify the mediocore performance.

well then mick is just being silly if thats the reason,
he should have more confidence after being around 40+

they all still have some performance anxiety once in a while...everyone does, even veterans--they just hide it well after years |

So did Mick play guitar on this or did Keith play his part? |

I listened to the mp3 and it was pretty darn good -- whatever Ronald is playing sounds a lot like his CYHMK solos of '02-'03.
I like it! |

I am happy to announce that I was their last night! Just got back from Columbus a few minutes ago. Mr. Pitiful, too!
And no, Mick did not play guitar on "Sway". |

I'm damn glad that they pulled it out,but I still say that Jagger blew it on his delivery. The phrasing and melody are completely wrong. Sorry,but thems the facts. Don't even think about slamming me on this because if you listen to it you know damned good and well that that's the truth.
I hope that they try it again. With a few more goes at it I think it would sound better. Having said that,I think they may put it to bed. Mick did not really seem to be into it at all. If they do play it again Mick would be wise to give the studio version a few more listens. It almost sounded like he forgot how the melody went. It did not sound like a reinterpetation so much as it sounded like Jagger just forgot the song structure all together.
Just callin' it as I hear it.

99 brought us "I Got The Blues" which had not been played
in a very long time...
02 brought us CYHMK, bang up Woody solo...
05 brings us Sway..
And so, Sticky Fingers has finally all been played live..
It would be great to hear Let It Rock again, however, given the dislike for Chuck Berry, it probably will not happen...
What a friggin back catalog to delve into? |

It's not the best version Riffy, but I really like the stones for trying out this songs, just for that they have to get some credit!

I think Riffy is right -- not the easiest tune for Mick to follow and he didn't seem to have it yet.
Hey give it time -- they'll get it. |

Great thing that they dug this old gem from the vaults, but they really should've given it a better treat.
Mick can't do the screaming on the brigde like he used to, so he goes the same road as in recent years' Rocks Off versions. And that sounds weird. And not that good.
Ronnie sucks on this one. He tries to hide his bum notes (and quite a few of them!) on heavy distortion.
But anyways, it's a nice gesture to play Sway. |

the fact they havent played it ever live and the fact they dont have the original lead guitarist who laid the track down counts against them. but my god for stones 2005 to bring it out of the woodwork after 34 years is bloody incredible, and the fans clearly went wild. good stuff |

The beginning's great & then it gets a bit screwy. Sorta like RO in 2002 opener. |

Just heard SWAY live and, from what these ears are hearing, I thought it sounded great. In no way is it an exact duplication of the studio version but, considering it's been 34 years, did anyone realistically expect it to sound like it did way back then??? When one also throws in the fact this is the first time it's ever been played live, personally this sounds much better than I expected. It's rough, it definitely can be improved but they're off to great start. Please keep it in the setlist.
Sometimes I think people are always comparing live versions of songs to the studio versions. If it's done differently or if doesn't sound the same then there is an immediate negative reaction among some who have grown up loving the studio version.
While this is understandable, I'm not one of those that necessarily has to have the exact studio version replicated on stage. The version of SWAY in Columbus was a good one. I, for one, thoroughly enjoyed it. Must have been a great show.

i agree with you on that point........i don't think i've ever heard "brown sugar"live better than the studio version but songs like "neighbours" are better live |
