This tour could end tomarrow and I still think we would get some of the best boots ever.As of today I have only heard audience boots,but wait until the soundboards start showing up!Who would have ever guessed we'd get a chance to hear a live performance of She Smiled Sweetly in 2002? I mean the setlists on this tour defy disscription when it comes to what you'd expect from a band that has been rolling for so long. Did anyone really expect the boys to perform Dance?! How about Mannish Boy again? Ofcourse everyone has been holding out hope for CYHMK,but we never could have expected such a rousing and awe inspiring version of it!
Oh yes,we have many great boots to look forward to! The Stones are reaffirming on this tour what so many of their critics,and even some of us hardcore fans,had begun to doubt. They are not only proving they can still rock with the best of them,but rather,they raised the bar. They are proving that they rock better and harder than anyone! I have yet to read a negative reveiw for any of the shows thus far! I can't remember on any previous tour where the reveiws were so positive.
The question has been raised here and elsewhere if the playing is really any better than previous tours. I guess that's debatable. In my mind they have never been tighter,but one thing that there can be no doubt about is this,the performances have not been this good in decades. That is the god's honest truth! If you don't beleive that now,you will soon enough. Everyone to a man,woman,or child has been walking out of the arenas,stadiums and theaters with their jaws on the ground. The Stones are playing with an attitude again and it's damned nice to see!
The boots will bear all of this out for years to come.

Well put, Riffhard. And I agree. The soundboards will be terrific..but just wait until the "gems" bootlegs appear. Like the "You Get the Best Of Me's"! They will actually take on the appearance of the traditional "wish" lists that so many of us post and dream about.
Hurry up Detroit and Toronto!!

It is quite apparent that either someone deep, DEEP!, within The Rolling Stones organization reads these boards or even the Stones themselves.
We have been begging for just this sort of tour for years!
And now we have it.
"Boot me to the WB and make me sing, Ronnie!"

Damn Straight ................why do you think Ronnie is playing so well --- all of your efforts to have him replaced hit home to the powers that be .
" I still want Taylor Back Ronnie "
