TomL Meg, Voo and Fucker- I did piss during SOL. I thought of you and MEG as I was, well nevermind. But I heard it was great. I'll catch it in Chicago cause Meg won't let me go. What a great show with some great suprises. Not knowing the operner was great. MM was awesone, FAE, chills,
YGTS and T & A awesome again. Although it does get leary to see Kieth without a guitar. What a great tail gate, 300 plus. Hats off to cold italian pizza and lemmon squzeer. Spent the night before in Philly and had a blast with some cool people. If you ever get the chance to see the cover band Hot Rocks, please do so. Thanks CC. JMI was also awesome. I was very leary but the boys proved me wrong again. Look out Chicago and AC. AC may be a PPV. I hope not cause that will mean horses. Under My thumb was a blessing to hear, and contrair to the Boston report, sounded realy good.

Got to the parking lot at 12:30 ready to roll. It was so nice to see everyone, miss factorygirl, been since little rock. Sorry if I got your mom drunk. Words won't do justice to the whole thing. Go while you can, and most important, go while they are still playing.

Giants was a breath of fresh air and thanks DaStones. Pleasure sitting with ya.

Go enyoy (think of paris hiltons pee pee) and think more good than bad. They are still rocking, Mick was awesome, Ronnie Rocked, well Charlie rocked as always, and Keith was Kieth. Sorry Mick was on fire.

Get the vodka ready in Chicago fucker.............

The ship is coming, and we will be in for a great show.

I drank in Philly on Tuesday night at the birth place of Larry Fine, thought you would want to know that Joey.

Well you know what kinda of eyes she got................

GotToRollMe Live Review: The Rolling Stones and Kanye West at Giants Stadium
The Stones bring the rock, West brings the roll on New Jersey pit stop
by David Fricke

It's official: Keith Richards is indestructible. When it was time for his traditional two-song spotlight at the Rolling Stones' September 27th concert at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, Richards acknowledged the crowd's chanting -- "Keith! Keith!" -- with a deep bow and his even deeper growl: "Well, I made it," he said, pausing. "I said I would."

Richards then bypassed the recent ballads that are his usual feature for a bare, beautiful rendering of "You Got the Silver" from Let It Bleed, the first half of it nothing more than Ron Wood's roadhouse skid on acoustic bottleneck guitar and the strong, clear gratitude in Richards' voice: "You fill my cup, babe, that's for sure/I must come back for a little more." He was in more familiar form in the next song, Tattoo You's "Little T & A" -- firing irregular bursts of Chuck Berry licks on his guitar, rumbling through the lyrics' cheerful nonsense with the grin of a man who thinks falling out of palm trees and brain surgery are just bumps on a road that never ends.

The show was the Stones' third pass through this neighborhood in the last year, and the first half of the set list was a welcome change-up. Wood delivered clean-shriek slide breaks back-to-back on "Monkey Man" and the Exile on Main Street gem "Sway." He also showed off his sweet-country pedal-steel touch in the Some Girls ballad "Far Away Eyes" while Jagger turned up the impassioned-hayseed factor with his sing-song vocal.

Lift-off was not immediate. Richards' and Wood's criss-cross riffing in the opening songs, "It's Only Rock and Roll" and "Live With Me," was muddy and hesitant. Richards did little of his dancing-pirate posing, instead bending over his guitar in concentration. But he played a simple, piercing Telecaster break in the Temptations' cover, "Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)," and the Stones felt confident enough in their combined strength to go long in "Midnight Rambler." Jagger blew agitated blues harp (something he never does enough of on stage or record), Charlie Watts showed off the jazz in his calm precision -- dancing at high speed on his cymbals and hi-hat -- and Wood and Richards stood together in front of Watts' kit, watching each other's hands as they traded phrases in heated treble.

LOL! I knew it was just a matter of time before someone would notice that.

MidnightRambler Little T&A..it was 3:54mins at Giants. If you listen to it...it only should last about 1:30...the rest of the song is just "She's my little rock and roll.." repeated over and over....

Totally agree!

throbby Extremely hard to capture the energy of a show in a recording. The recordings always pale. Quite a nice recording job by Taperadvocate though, very immediate but to my ears a little dry.
29th September 2006 09:40 AM
marko I donīt adree,actually bootlegs does tell you everything.
Like mathjis wrote a long time ago,even if the recording
is BAD or EX,band shines thru it,it doesnīt anymore.

MB81 I was at Giant's Stadium the other night. I feel the impulse to tell the universe that the crowd sucked. Besides peoples kids dragged along, we were the youngest people in the crowd, who think when you go to a rock concert that you should clap, scream, dance, sing, make out, smoke, drink, and generally let the band know that you're alive. The crowd at Giant's Stadium was old, flabby, bored, and left before the encore (I assume to get home to relieve the babysitter.) When Mick introduced the band, people just stood there, thinking "I'm sure someone else will clap, there's no need for me to." It was the same when I saw Bowie last year in Boston. You know what? if you're not into it, don't pay 200$ fora ticket and stay home and watch Grey's Anatomy like the lamewad you are. I don't ever want to go to another Stones concert with a bunch of pasty bald losers who have had all the life and fun sucked out of them by spouses and kids and jobs again. I'm moving back to Chicago.

glencar Grey's Anatomy wasn't even on that night! You are a TOTAL poser!

I partially agree. This crowd sucked, but not for the reasons you mention. I was in Sec. 202, directly opposite the stage. The rest of our row was filled with kids who pretty obviously were there because their parents had access to corporate freebies. They spent the entire show taking pictures of each other with their phones and getting up to go to the bathroom (I guess). We had to get up to let them by at least 10 times. Annoying little fuckers.

Second was the guy behind us for whom music seemed to trigger a release of long built up anger. He was literally screaming, "Fuck you" to nobody, about nothing in particular. Then when someone walked by him wearing earplugs, he told the guy to get rid of the earplugs because this wasn't "the fucking ballet." Finally, things go ugly when someone asked the guy to please move into the isle if he wanted to dance all night, because the people behind him couldn't see.

Third were the people in front of us who spent the evening dirty dancing. You weren't exactly at your peak, physically speaking, and it was no great pleasure to have to watch you molest each other. Glad that the music moved you, but again, there are people behind you who aren't thrilled about having to adjust their position to actually see the band rather than you two pawing and gyrating all night.

I hate to be a drag, but getting into a show and enjoying yourself are not an excuse to give a big fuck you to everyone else around you. I prefer to sit and focus on the show. If you want to dance or stand, cool, but move so that you aren't obstructing the view of your fellow attendees. Yeah, it's rock and roll, and it's the Stones, blah, blah, blah, but be a little aware of the other people around you. It'll never happen, I know, and I'm an old fart, I know, but I have this stupid thing about your good time ending where mine begins.

Let the flaming begin.
29th September 2006 11:59 AM
glencar Wasn't the crowd singalong on "Faraway Eyes" fun?

At the second Twickenham show, 2 young guys in front of us were simulating oral sex. They were REALLY into it. The one guy's shorts were nearly falling off. Nobody said anything to them & they stopped after 2 songs.

Saint Sway Stadium shows suck. Especially for the above mentioned reasons. The annoying people seem to come out in droves...

cool things about clubs is they usually boot the pricks out
