Could be a toss-up between Bitch, Some Guy and Voodoo as to who gets the song vote:





Get Off My Cloud

Emotional Rescue

Bitch

Rocks Off

This show takes place on the 50th anniversary of Brian's death.

It'd be REALLY poor form if they didn't acknowledge it in some way.

They will!

Otherwise this will be the Charlie Watts and Brian Jones Message Board LOL

I would like to think that they would mention it, especially with PIB in full rotation...but as i think opf the way Taylor and Wyman were treated during the 50 and counting...I would not be surprised if its barley a murmur.

TomL will be in the Pit I think...maybe that old kook will remind Jagger to mention it ("Hey, Mick, you motherfucker...dont forget Brian FFS...")...a few signs will help...maybe

Voted for RO of couerse...they play ER last time in DC and GOMC in 2006...Bitch, I cant recall...a tough one to call...but I think they have rehearsed GOMC...

I'm sure chuck will remind them...

The Stones have a long proud history of playing with giant inflatables.

It's super fucking hot and humid on the east coast. I'm shocked Mick's doctor team signed off on this tour. I can barely stay outside for longer than ten minutes.

Record high of 98 degrees in Miami today.

I am also worried about MICK's health running around in the heat at some of the hot cities they are touring. I don't think its a good for us either!

Have a great time in DC! Who's going?

Woah! The song vote for Washington had an overwhelming majority - a landslide win we've never seen before...guess you really want to hear this one live again...
Find out which track got it later 👅

1400 empty seats on the floor and 100s...I want to hear those Lucky Dips stories!!

I had to give up my Lucky Dips and sent my license and debit card to my plus 1 who lives near Landover...hopefully he can score well!!

I put no faith in this vote what-so-ever...but on the Twitter and FB posts...there were a shit load of ER shout outs...they played that last time in DC and only played it once or twice since during Ole , if I recall...

It would make sense that they play it as I love that song and I cant go to the show tonight.

My buddy Richard was able to pick up my LD tickets...Sec 125 Row 18...normally $275.00

Not a bad seat...

Agreed!
And  a greater show without SMU, IMO

But are you sure there was no SMU??
I mean you did think they played Angie twice...LOL  ;D ;D ;D

LOL I was stoned and I missed it

NO, sure they didn't play it, my friend and partner in Rocks Off (Spanish version) Marcelo Quatraro was watching the whole show on Facebook (streming for "friends only") and he confirmed it

I?m going to check the offivial website right now

Ripped to the tits while you should have been real dead professional, like, Voo?

But the latest photo header is a 'cracker.


Next is Foxy.

(It could be boxy, rocksy and very cocksy.)

Mercy Mercy
Have Mercy on Me

That was a nod to Brian, they played it 50 years ago at Hyde Park and havent played it since *what MICK said.

Can anyone confirm this, Gazza?

Thats correct. 50 years ago tomorrow. Its a song that Keith has occasionally mentioned as something they'd like to perform again but its never happened.

Hyde Park was actually the only performance of the song since 1965.

Nice version too. I dont expect them to play it too many more times. If at all.

Think its evident that they did it as a nod to Brian - yet its still a bit sad that they didnt even mention him and theres absolutely no acknowledgement on their social media pages.

There's no doubt in my mind that Mercy Mercy was a nod to Brian and as close to sentimental as we are ever going to get.

All reports from those I've talked to say it was a great show, despite the heat and traffic nightmares.

TomL was in Pit2 and stoked about the entire show. "Even that fucking YGMR wasn't too bad".

Rocks Off Rules You Bastards!!!

Nice review from the Washington Post

The Rolling Stones want to teach you how to live forever

By Chris Richards

At the Rolling Stones concert, there’s something poetic about the heat index hitting 92 at dusk. But if you don’t believe in weather-as-divine-metaphor, just know that the 21st century was well underway at Maryland’s FedEx Field on Wednesday night, and this band sounded alive. Not “still alive” — a phrase that can feel patronizing and rah-rah — but totally alive, completely present, sweating out songs in real time, elegantly pushing rude noises into an unknowable future.

This wasn’t a band of survivors reenacting their once-greatness. This was the greatness.



What was happening up there? The Stones haven’t sounded this sharp, this tight, this spirited or this centered in more than a decade — and Mick Jagger having a piece of his heart surgically replaced just a few months ago probably has everything to do with it. Suddenly, a band that had spent the past 40 years refusing to die was reminded that its principals most certainly will. For the rest of us, the group’s invincibility myth seems to have finally collapsed under a more universal truth: the only reason life has meaning is because it ends.

Before all that, it had been wild watching our heroes grow old in their immortality. If 1989 marks the year that people officially began wondering whether their favorite rock group should have an expiration date, that means today’s Rolling Stones — Jagger, 75, Keith Richards, 75, Charlie Watts, 78, Ronnie Wood 72 — have been “old” for longer than they were “young.”

And while it’s been fun listening to fearless old men play the music of fearless young men, we’re past that now. To hear the Rolling Stones perform in 2019 is to hear a gang of sages share a profound knowledge of their own bodies, as well as a consummate awareness to one another’s. As musicians, they’re communicating on the highest frequencies. Instead of mental telepathy, it’s physical telepathy.


Just look at Jagger cut across that stage, strutting and smooth, like a rooster imitating a shark. On Wednesday night, he appeared ready to prance off into the void, but his feet were always tethered to whatever Watts was up to on the snare. And every time Jagger sang, it was like he was trying to push the entire world out of his mouth. There was no skimping, no corner-cutting — from the hungry shouts of “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” and “Satisfaction” to the ghostly falsettos of “Miss You” and “Gimme Shelter.” As for the rest of his body, it performed so much more than sexy air traffic control. He was leading by example in a non-verbal, non-stop way. Look, Jagger said with his swirling hips and punching fists, This is what music can do to you.
Watts acted as the band’s center of gravity, pushing and pulling on space-time in a way that gave the music its nastiness and its dignity. During “Midnight Rambler,” the rest of his body seemed to freeze whenever his left hand slapped down on the snare — as if this gesture needed the entirety of his attention, as if time itself might break apart were he to become a little too careless about it.

And that gave Richards tacit permission to be as careless as the moment demanded. As a guitarist, he’s unmatched when it comes to making something terribly wrong sound exactly right, and he did so many crude things to those delicate guitar strings, making his riffs sound like horn sections and crashing jets.

He and co-guitarist Wood spent the night practicing a style that Richards calls “weaving,” but during “Rocks Off” and “Sympathy for the Devil,” Wood was weaving with silk while Richards was using rebar. The only reason the tapestry held together was because everyone was locked in with Watts. In Richards’s 2010 memoir, “Life,” he traces all of his band’s deepest magic back to the human body, describing the genius of Watts as “something to do with the way Charlie’s limbs are constructed.”


So physical telepathy then. The drummer’s arms were speaking to the frontman’s feet and the guitarists’ fingertips, and it all sounded hyper-attentive, and ultra-vivid, and as real as real life. Maybe that was the message. Listening is living — and tonight, that’s what we were all here do. Jagger didn’t mention his surgery. Nobody mentioned the fact that it was the 50th anniversary of the drowning of the band’s founding guitarist, Brian Jones. Death felt very far away.

At least until Richards elbowed his way into “Start Me Up,” a tune in which Jagger’s promise to “never stop” means something new each time he sings it. It used to be a song about living forever. Now it’s a song about living like you deserve to.

HOLY SHIT! This is GREAT!

They nailed Mercy, Mercy.

Mick gets the phrasing right on the opening verses of Rocks Off. First Time I've heard it like that.
Keith's Chuck Berry riffs on the outro of Rocks Off---WOW!!!

This is the best I've heard on a YouTube clip in AGES!

Perks was there & it was amazing. Amazing

Golf jacket again?

Who was the young-buck second keyboardist alongside Chuck for the lovely, thinky and spunky 'Mercy'?

Any word on any kind of tribute to Brian since the show? Their silence is deafening. I didn't see anything on their social media.
