"    ..................Thanks to the incredible generosity, amazing connections, and all-around absolute awesomeness of a friend of ours, Robpop, Sirmoonie and I (and our benefactress) attended the show and VIP party beforehand as guests of Keith Richards (the KR on the pass).  So I sent my very understanding fiancee and son off to their merely OK seats at the back of the field and took the secret escalators to the inner sanctum of the stadium.  There I flashed my VIP badge and was ushered into a scene of unimaginable decadence and depravity.  All the Stones were there.  Mick was sitting on a throne of solid gold having his toes licked by Olivia Munn.   There was a bathtub full of naked models filled with french champagne which we sipped through alabaster straws from between their slippery knees. Mountains of cocaine covered every table-top, and it was hard to make out the faces of all the celebrities there for the thick cloud of sweet ganga smoke which filled the air.  I'm pretty sure Johnny Depp was there. Someone wearing a scarf, anyway. Unreleased Stones tracks played at intense volume, so it was hard to tell what the hell Kate Upton was shouting into my ear about.  "You want me to put what WHERE?" I said, but just then the acid which Moonie had put in my drink at BZs kicked in, and it was only by washing down a buncha Seconol with a few perfect pints of draft guinness the topless barmaids were serving with  Stones tongues in the foam that I maintained consciousness  and a modicum of sanity.  The last thing I remember, Moonie and Robpop were dragging me by my feet to our awesome 12th row seats. The show was starting!   "

It is really great to read the reviews and see the faces of you guys! It's the adventure, the fun and the Stones experience that makes it all so worth it! I was watching almost the entire show on periscope. Debbie tiger was scoping it, the view was small but the sound was very clear so I put on headphones and it was almost as good as being there. Without the adventure

Wish I'd met you, Ian. I did inquire as to your whereabouts.  And would've loved to see Riffy!  But I had a chiba chariot to catch to the backstage orgy.

I have always loved the aspect of cities transforming themselves into STONES cities when the boys are in town. When the local radio station plays nothing but Stones and they're blasting out of every window.   Especially on a Saturday when the hometeam's out of town.  Then the closer you get to the stadium, the more people in Stones shirts you see, and street buskers are playing stones songs and guys are walking around saying "tickets" without moving their lips...all of humanity is drawn toward the nexus of Rock and Roll but only the first 56,000 get in this time...

This is one time I actually wish I liked sports. The cross promotion with local teams must be great for football fans.  Moonie and Robpop paused from guzzling the VIP hooch only long enough to go buy gold & black Stones hats. I bet they're both wearing them right now.

One of my favorite points in the show was when Keith and Ronnie finished up Happy -- Ronnie was just wailing on that lap steel and as with may songs that night, they weren't quite sure when they were gonna finish it.  When they did, Keith turned with a very serious Keith Richards face and said "That's rock and roll".  In case they hadn't figured it out yet.

And I did not see this myself, but I hear that at the end of the show, when the Stones take their last bow to the audience, Ronnie gave Mick a slap in the dick.

There was something going on there because I saw Mick do what I thought was a quick bow before Keith was ready (which I thought was him poking fun at Keith's starting Satisfaction before Mick could introduce the choir -- the Penn State choir who were fantastic incidentally).  But a guy in the hotel said Ronnie gave Mick a dick slap.

First, if true, that's just funny as hell.  The thought that Ronnie would even think to slap Mick's dick just cracks my ass up.

But to touch "his majesty" at the end of the show!!

And for what?  That's what cracks me up -- did Mick do something or say something, or was Ronnie just full of piss and vinegar.

Great shit.

We also got a lil' one minute revival jam at the end of Cant Alway Get What yOu Want.  Not sure if that was spontaneous or just "spontaneous" at every show, but it was great -- similar to what they did in Philly at the end of the show in 2013.

And Pittsburgh is a great city.
Friendly people, yet has that gritty city feel that you would expect.  The ultimate Mill Town and just wonderful place.

Cab ride on the way home from the Casino after the show:

TomL to cab drive:  "You smoke dope"
Cab diver: "Sure do"
TomL: "Here you go man... fire this fucker up"

Funny I Only saw 1 Hit! Oh and those "Signature Moves" were not to be missed!
The House was a Rockin

Lottsa Tingles~~~~~~

OMFG !!!!!!!

I finally caught the video clip on YouTube, and I made a mistake in my review:  Jagger did not veer back into JJF during IORR and Keith didn't follow.  He just lost his place in the lyrics.  But it was so fucking loud that it sounded that way.

Which is a good thing.  Somebody once asked me my definition of a good saloon, and I said: "So dark that if a murder was committed on the premises, all the eyewitness testimony would conflict."

Hi all. First-time poster here, long time lurker. This will be my one and only post here. Just wanted to drop by and let you guys know something. All you lucky Pittsburgh attendees witnessed something historic that Keith has never done before. He changed the Happy lyric to "before I can f*ck all night long". Nobody seems to have noticed it. At least nobody has mentioned it, anyway. Listen closely at the 1:50 mark...
