Joshy...I felt so badly for you.

Sounds like an awful experience. Horrid setlist and weather conditions.

Wichita, on the other hand, a better show.

I have hope for a good setlist in Chicago.

All of the above....they sounded very good, but it was hard to enjoy. We were dead center on the cat walk...I enjoyed, as always, bonding with my son, and meeting some very nice people. By the way, I had to fly in a 30 seat jet to get there and back-another horroring experience.

The one positive we can take out of this, is that clearly, the end is here/near. This will really give us a good idea as to which fans are able to live regular lives without the Stones, I estimate 82% of this board will be fine with 17% unable to function normally for several years (with 1% undecided).

I enjoyed the sound quality and the nice people I met at the preparty and in the venue, but did not enjoy Louisville, their decision to close Interstate 65 without detour signage, the awful setlist, the inept security (instead of being patted down, i was asked "Do you have anything you shouldn't have?"), the awful cab situation afterwards, and the decision to only keep a minimal amount of entrances/exits to and from the field. Everyone involved, including the horses and jockeys, should be ashamed of themselves. From now on, I will not stop in Louisville until this is corrected. While travelling on business, I will refuse all flights that have layovers in Louisville (a few areas such as Jackson, MI do not have direct flights from Chicago!).

Chicago better have a better setlist! Sadly, scheduling an outdoor show in October at Soldier Field has the makings of an "ADDA Disaster"!!!!!

Yup. I feel old....a million years old. I knew a kid one time, oh about 25 years ago who had attended a ton of Grateful Dead concerts with his mother before he was 10. When I knew him he was only about 20....but his eyes were the eyes of an old man. It kind of scared me.

I continue to suffer from flank pain, chronic IBS, benign fasciculation, and other stress related conditions. This includes rectal irritation, burning sensations upon urination, swollen glands, loose skin, and a very painful bile duct. Lately, this stress has caused scalp twitching, which I fear is a symptom of a major, terminal ailment.

That's what I've been saying for a couple of years now TTM. My MOM likes ABB. WTF is up with THAT? Mom's are supposed to HATE The Stones with gusto, you know? That shit just ain't right. And I'm telling you man...that fucking snapped something in me. She said to me, "Hey I saw The Rolling Stones on Days of Our Lives! I really enjoyed it. The song they did was really nice.". I wanted to crawl under the chair I was sitting on.

There is no air of menace or danger now. They are no longer Rock n Roll Rebels. They are not Black Sheep. The edge is gone(and I'm not talking about U2's crappy guitar player either! We can only WISH that that Edge was gone!). And that was one of the very things that drew me so strongly to The Stones in the first place...that edge and menace. IMO, they just ain't as good without that stuff.

The Stones have become nice and safe. Quaint gentelemen. And that shit just ain't right either. Pete Townsend said when inducting the Stones into the RnRHOF..."Don't grow old gracefully boys, it wouldn't suit you." Well, they DID get old gracefully. And Pete was right...it DOESN'T suit them.

I think that has translated over to the fans too. Back in the day...you KNEW there was gonna be trouble at a Stones show. Put that many badass Stones fans at one place at one time, and chemicals and alcohol...there was gonna be trouble. Now, you can take your little kids to a Stones show and not really worry too much about the stuff that they might see. Yeah TTM...WTF happened???
