Thanks for the review. Mobbsy. Liked the video. Its a great feeling to walk past rows and rows of great seats...knowing yours are going to be even closer.

Waiting for Rob to check in with his review - anyone seen him?

Didn't know at the time but my wife sneakily filmed me making my way to our front row seats.
A bit self indulgent to share, but you get a view of stage and setup.
A great memory to come back to in years to come.

Cool. Glad they finally came to Oz.

A Great show.
I was second row Section A3, amazing to be that close again

Midnight Rambler and Gimme Shelter were the highlight for me

The stage intruder was hilarious, as the intruder was being tackled to the ground by multiple security guards and without missing a beat Mick quips “All part of the act, some Aussies Rules tackling!”

Look forward to the Sydney show now

Yes. I dont mean that I expected him to highlight the reason for the postponements, but I've been at rescheduled Stones gigs before where he's had the courtesy to acknowledge it (and others where he hasnt bothered)

Was interested considering the tragic circumstances behind these postponements how he would have worded it

His setlists may not be getting better with age, but his one-liners certainly are!

Hey exile! You must have been right next to us. How's those peanuts sitting down in rows 2 and 3 thru Rambler. Felt like calling security on them.
Seeya in Sydney!

yeah we must have been close

I was seats 11 & 12

I saw some people sitting down. they were behind me. Heavier girls...probably not used to standing all that long Wink
I saw another guy who looked close to 90 didn't sit down the whole concert

The lady next to me caught Ronnie's pick and another lady one row behind caught Charlie's drumstick

I'm in the pit in Sydney show

The setlists are going to be war horse heavy. It seems to be the norm with many acts. 


Just the lazy ones.

With quite a few acts from the same generation, its far from 'war horse heavy' , its downright adventurous.

Its still a bloody good show, and a large percentage of it being some of their best known songs is to be expected.

But, when you're talking about a show with only 19 songs, rotating some of those 'well known songs' in and out of the set isnt a big ask.

As it is, you have five or six relatively well known songs competing for the 'webvote' (where the shortlist will generally favour a well known song, as the people voting are people sitting at a pc who arent going to the show) and one other song about five songs in (usually the 'ballad' part of the show).



I was reading on other forums that Paul McCartney's set lists have been the same for ten years and that they will stop supporting his shows until he mixes it up a little.

The Tom Petty tour features only the hits. Not a b side in sight!

But the overwhelming thing I read in the forums and in the comments sections of news about these older acts is that for the price of a ticket, they better play only the big hits and no deep cuts.

I was very thankful to catch all three Philly shows on the Licks Tour. I got to hear so many songs that I'll never hear again.

Cool vid from Deathgod. I never saw the Stones outside Europe, so the seats up front look weird to me. There's no seats in the arena's over here.  Great if you want to jump around, and I always do when I'm at a Stones show. Must be annoying for other people to have a jumping fat man in their personal space though, so I can see the benefits of a front row seat too, but still..weird.

Hope all you Aussie folks had a blast or have a blast in the days ahead.

Gazza's right. His one liners are better than the setlist.  Fuck you Gazza, Will ya? War horses couldn't drag me away
