HELLO to Sebi! Nice first post, so how long have you been a fan and where do you call home?
I havent heard this new release yet, but I agree with Gazza $10 is not expensive at all, just the cost of a decent glass of wine plus tip!
My problem with it is that I like a physical thing, not just a download. Many of my downloads are in the dead computer/devices graveyard, never to be heard from again.
Hi bitch,
I used to make mix tapes when I was really young, at the age of five or six & and on all these tapes I put on the stones version of Route 66 from my fathers lp collection but I don't liked the stones at that time because they looked so evil on the cover of their first lp and even more ugly on hide tide and green gras. In the end of 1989 I was watching a retrospective on the 80' music & there was a snippet about the stones where they were playing start me up on the steel wheels tour & the snippet stroke like a lightning, this was the best thing I had heard till then & I was very into music by that time.
( you can see it here

The sound of Keith guitar is so unbelievable good, if I was a stones sound engineer I would make Keith guitar sound like this through the whole show or album. Six month later I was at my first stoneshow in my hometown Hannover, Germany. For me it was even more impressive then the start me up experience. I was dreaming about this show years later, how the whole stadium was singing ruby tuesday or ycagwyw, it was surreal. After this show I discovered bootlegs and the stones back catalogue, wandering spirit was the first cd I bought on my own & I liked it very much. Then voodoo lounge and the tour, with over half a year of big pleasant inticipation together with my friends from school & an even better show then in 1990 again in my hometown Hannover. One more show in 95' in Wolfsburg which was very good, too. In 1997 after school I was making civil service instead of going to the army & I earned my first own money. With my first three wages I bought a flight ticket to l.a. and saw the stones 5 times in la & San Francisco. On the European tour I saw more than 20 shows & also wanted to go to Argentina (which is the best location to see the stones I imagine) but I don't get holidays from my boss. After that I tried to see every show if time & money allows. I've seen them over 70 times till now & still enjoying it very much most of the time. Unfortunately I don't have the time these days to see them as much shows as I want , 'cause work and family doesn't allow it that much anymore. Otherwise I would be in the us right know ...
By the way, I was a rocks off member in 2000 or 2001 but didn't post much, because my English is not so good. After the forum change ( from black yellow to blue grey) my account was gone, so I'm not completely new
So thank you very much bitch & gazza for your warm welcome, & as I check stones forums every day, I must say this one is the best. Anarchy & gazza & 'fuck' doesn't gets censored, what do want more
