Mystery song??? It's probably a song that hasn't been played on the tour yet. There's been some speculation it could be Carol.

Not a bad set. Hope they rocked the joint down. Was this a arena or stadium gig?
And i just gotta say. What is with Keith? Doesnt he want to do any other songs? Why pick "The Worst" all the time? He must think its really special. I cant stand it. It's a bloody dirge. "You got the Silver" would be amazing!
Either way, obviously, he's gonna do a album of "American Standards" as a solo project. And his mini set is a warm up to that. Yep, i can picture it. |

Brothers and Sisters:
What a great show last night. I'm still dazed from it.
Some random, unedited thoughts:
To be this close to the Stones was amazing. I was front row for B-stage. I was close enough that Mick threw his water on me. Awesome! Dreams do come true. This was one of my dreams - front row for the ROLLING STONES. It came true last night and it couldn't have been better.
I was able to look into their eyes. That's how close I was. I didn't know if I should scream, dance, sing, or cry.
Brown Sugar, a tune I could do without in favor of a rare tune, sounded spot on. Keef buckled down and played the song. Not one bad note.
Infamy was another standout. Keef ripped off bit fat solos as if the entire tour depended on it.
Back of My Hand - I can now tell my grandkids that I saw the world's greatest blues band laying it down. Keith sat on Charlie's riser before getting up and playing some tasty blues riffs.
These men are children of the blues. Make no mistake!
Keith's daughter was spotted when the bstage moved back. She's cute and hot, and she was dancing around, dancing to her Dad's rock band.
Nice.

I also think they jammed on "Wish I Never Met You" during the reprise of Night Time.

good show last night, I think Monday's setlist was better, not by much though. They played much more crisp then Monday with hardly any mistakes. Bitch was nice to see in he 4 spot, SSC would have blew the roof off on the BStage... thats what I was hoping for! 7 differnt songs from Monday, WHO AIN'T SWITCHING IT UP!  |

The Wednesday show was superior for a few reasons:
1. Back of my Hand followed by Midnight Rambler
2. Keith's daughter made her self visable
3. Mick poured water on me.

It all started last week. A guy named Keefer, from over at Gasx3 was giving away 3 tix to the 10/12 Philly show. My pal Pdog tried to get one of them for me.
But check this out....Keno intervened and told the guy to make sure that I did NOT get one of those tickets. He then went on to rip on me, and flat out make stuff up about me. He said I tried to get his site shut down...WTF? How the hell could I get someone's website shut down? It makes no sense. Whatever. I didn't get a ticket, and Pdog felt bad.
So on Tuesday night my Uncle John & I took Pdog to the North Star to see The Reigning Sound and the Detroit Cobras. We had a real good time. When I dropped Pdog at his hotel, we said, "See you in January!"...we didn't know it at the time, but we we're destined to meet again sooner than January.
Fast forward to 3:30pm yesterday. I'm getting some dinner together for when the wife gets home from work. My cell phone rings. I answer.
"Hello..." says me.
"Hey SS! It's me...what are you doing tonight? Do you gotta work?"
"Ummmm, no. I happen to be off tonight."
"Cool. Can you come to Philly? I got a front row ticket for you."
"Wait...what did you just say? You got a what for me?"
"Yeah, a front row ticket."
"Oh geez...yer killin' me. I was just in Philly last night. My wife is gonna have a fit. Look, I gotta call you back. I have my kid here, and my wife isn't home yet. I gotta run this past her first...but as soon as I get to talk to her, I'll call you."
"Cool."
I was right. The wife threw a fit...but she also knew that she had to let me go.
I crammed some food down my neck and flew out the door. Left in such haste that I forgot my punk rock jacket. I coulda used it too...it was cold & rainy. I got to Wachovia Center at about 7:30pm...I woulda been there sooner, but my car doesn't have wings.
My benefactor meet me at the door of the Red Bell Brewery, and in I go. My heart was racing. This was gonna be way better than what I had planned for the evening! LOL!
So I turn the corner into the pub...and there stands Pdog. He gets this huge shit eating grin. Weird how shit works out sometimes. Pdog then tells my benefactor the story about Keno and the free ticket. Again, ain't it funny how shit works out? Instead of sitting in the 200 level...I'm front row. Thanks Keno!!!
I can't do a proper review of the show. I was on sensory overload. There was too much to look at. Mick whizzing by like a dervish...Ronnie walking up and playing some dirty licks right in my face...Keith and Charlie playing off each other...whoa, there goes Mick again! I got to see my boys play Midnight Rambler RIGHT IN MY FACE! It was just too much. It was something like shellshock.
The only bad things about the evening were a guy I had just met got busted for taping. I tried to warn him, but it was too late...he got nabbed. The other thing was that some drunk chicks were crowding my benefactor. Normally, that wouldn't be a bad thing...but they were really obnoxious and getting in the way.
But that was it...everything else was just perfect. I had a great time...I got some stunning pictures. Wait til you see some of these pics...Throbby will be so proud! Gerardo...I just sent you a couple to get started. I sent the big high res images...feel free to resize them.
Oh yeah! How could I forget! I got to hang with the two coolest kids, Throbby & Luxy, again. They are both still stunningly good looking. What a great couple they are. As good as they look on the outside, they are even better on the inside where it counts. I always look forward to seeing them, even if they do make me look fat & ugly in the group pics!
I'm still sorta reeling from the whole deal and how it worked out. I guess I should chalk it up to good karma or something because god knows that I don't deserve to be this fortunate. To my benefactor, I give a heartfelt "Thank you." I've been down in the dumps from losing my Bro...you have no idea how much this helps to lift my spirits. I really appreciate it. It was a night I'll never forget.

I was at this show in Philly - my first ever Stones concert at age 49, go figure - a strange thing happened and I wondered if it's happened before. I was with a group of family and friends in the rafters of the Wachovia Ctr. section 206 row 9, when a older gent wearing what looked like employee ID around his neck showed up with a stack of floor tickets and started handing them out. He almost got mobbed once people figured out what he was doing. Then about 15 minutes later he came back again and I asked him for a pair for me and my wife - these were section 102 row 7 - two sections from the stage and just above the floor - I can't imagine a better view from anywhere! So I asked the guy why he was doing this and he said "Jagger wants all the seats filled down there." He must've handed out nearly 50 tickets, I'm guessing. The guy next to me said "does this make any sense to you? I thought it was sold out?" So I'm wondering if there were expensive seats that didn't sell, or comp tickets that weren't used, or what? I'm not complaining, believe me, it was a stroke of pure luck! But I just wonder if anybody knows what was going on or the same thing happened to anybody else out there at other Stones concerts... |

I sent you this very simple instructions (read everyone if you want) to make the weight of the picture very small and maintain the same size and resolution
1.- Open it with "PAINT" available everywhere if you use PC (or similar software)
2.- Add a black point over a black surface (or simply add a point anywhere)
3.- Save it
Now see the size and resolution of the picture is the very same but the "weight" (bytes) is very small
With the current header or the Lisa picture I changed the size from more than 1MB to 158KB!!! and if you open both images in the same windows you wan't see any difference!
BTW, this one the first header on this Saint Stonesalot series

REPOST
At the risk of repeating myself
Mom on a Mission.
We had excellent seats Section 7 Row 1/First Row B stage.
Before we left the house my daughter wanted to make a sign for Ronnie. She told me she wanted it to say " Ronnie I'm your # 1 fan"
She was on my husbands shoulders and the second stage was in transit towards us. As it was heading Mick took notice of the sign. He started to laugh and was trying to get Ronnies attention. It was either a Isn't that the cutiest thing you ever saw laugh or One mate busting on another, Look thats the best you can do a 8 year old. I don't think Ronnie saw the sign at that time. Mick was trying to still get his attention. But you know it was a topic of conversation later either way.
As the stage approached to the platform it started to lower Ronnie looked up at the sign and smiled. During his performance he kept throwing her kisses and at one point came over leaned down and handed her a pick. It was pretty hard because there was a large gap between her and the stage even though it was first row. About a moment or so later Keith walked over bent accross and handed my son his pick. It was unbelievable. My kids were in heaven.
I would love more than anything, a picture of this moment. So please if anyone has one let me know.
