Yeah that place looks so sick!!

Begs to question:


What kind of beer do they sell here, and will Mick ride in on a Harley like that Rob Halford guy ?

The weather is spectacular....mid 60's tonight, clear skies. This is going to be a great show with Buddy here and that fantastic amphitheater setting. Summerfest officially starts tomorrow, so this is technically not part of the event. Access to the Summerfest grounds will be restricted to Rolling Stones ticket-holders. I'm expecting a full show, not a festival-type appearance.

I'm really enjoying the group we have here in Milwaukee. We might not have the Stones forever, but we will have our crazy Stones fan friends for the rest of our lives.

I've been reading the same thing on IORR. Personally I don't hear a difference.

I gotta say, Ronnie's solos on rambler and CYHMK are blowing away Taylor's from last year imo.

Debbie Tiger on periscope again is awesome.
HTW did seem a tad slow.
Champagne and Reefer was great.

I was hoping for a small review because other people are saying this show wasn't the greatest due to content and lameness of the audience...and since you have been to so many on this tour (I'm guessing 7?) you should be an expert on the subject! Also, for the record I am so jealous that you are going to so many shows but also very happy for you!!

Milwaukee newspaper review - stellar!
Band had a blast!
Check out the video review here and article

Hopefully I did that right!

This was my fourth (SD, Columbus, Minneapolis and Milwaukee) with three left to go (KC, Detroit, and, of course, Buffalo).

I was right next to the stage, and I did not find the crowd to be lame at all. Nobody sat down where I was through the whole show. I looked back and up the amphitheater and it seemed to me that most of the people were on their feet. That said, I would have to say that Columbus was the best crowd so far. 55K people totally rocking out. This was not a lame crowd in Milwaukee, though.

The guitars on this tour are turned way up, and with good reason. Both Keith and Ronnie are playing so well. Last night the whole band seemed to be having a great time and joking with each other. Buddy Guy raises the bar for the Stones....they clearly love and respect him. (And he was fantastic both in his set and on "Champagne and Reefer".) I was hoping we might get "You Gotta Move" with Buddy as a nod to Sticky Fingers, but they were really spot on with C&R.

I love Sympathy now that the guitars are at ear-blowing decibel levels. Moonlight Mile is gorgeous. CYHMK was a real treat last night, especially given the way Ronnie is playing.

I am sick of Doom and Gloom and would love to see some other gem dropped into its place. Also, IORR just is not great live.

The upcoming show in KC will be important for me. I saw the Stones for the first time in June 1975 at Arrowhead....and now I am coming back almost exactly 40 years later to the same stadium (KC is one place that hasn't torn down their stadium in the ensuing years).  Who would have thought?

I love this band, and the friends that it has given me. We had a great group in Milwaukee, which made a special show all the more special. The amphitheater was gorgeous and felt even more intimate than the 25K capacity.

Long live the Rolling Stones.

SV

OK SV thank you for clearing that up! A smaller venue must of been a welcome change from the 65,000 seat stadiums. I agree that D&G needs to be dropped or at least rotated. IORR & SMU are played out, maybe 1 or the other would be better, but the "fans" need to hear these songs!  Enjoy your 5th Zipcode show in KC and the 40 year anniversary from your first Stones show. Very cool, and in the same venue! You've been rocking the Stones for 40 years now Jini! Is it any wonder?

Is that place still standing ?  ]    )    .   Anyway , me Mum is in town from Arizona  ( ' Acton '  ) otherwise I would be there to see / witness " BEST STONES YET !!!!   "   ......... or perhaps young Joey might just ' slink away '  .
