Wow, that was a great show at Petco - backstage at the Rattlesnake (thanks O), great set list (esp. Tears, Rambler, RO), and surging to the rail at the front of B-stage. Gotta sleep now, so here are two pics from the B:

great pics, stoneslib!!!
ii just got hom, too. solid show, but my leaast favorite of the week. i had a sh*t ticket but walked past the wristband checker, and stood on the floor the whole time - near the soundboard (i started closer, but was getting shuffled around ). was not twenty feet from the bstage on ronnie's side, so that was the highlight for me. too bad they cant do something about the delay (sound) - i never noticed until tonight, where i was standing farther back from the main stage...
wont take long was good, rambler was sweet, rocks off is always a treat, bstage, i always like shes so cold...
a very solid show, and well worth the trip.
still contemplating fresno... |

The Rolling Stones at Petco Park

Stones stage classic show
Rockers bring new energy to old songs, creating magical night
By George Varga

Petco hits home run as a concert venue, say rock 'n' rollers
The skies stayed clear and dry, but that didn't stop the Rolling Stones from stirring up a heady, music-fueled storm at Petco Park last night.
Appearing before a near-capacity audience of 43,000 under a moonlit sky, the English superstars delivered a thundering, two-hour performance. They began with "Start Me Up" and concluded with encores of the gospel-tinged "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and a stadium-shaking "Satisfaction," with a generous array of other old favorites and some winning new songs in between.
JIM BAIRD / Union-Tribune
Last night's Rolling Stones concert in Petco Park as seen from the Omni Hotel downtown. The first nonsporting event at the Padres ballpark played out under clear skies and before 43,000 fans.

The result was a triumph for the group, whose "World's Greatest Rock Band" moniker still seems well-earned, and for Petco itself, which was hosting its first concert in its two-year history and generally came through with flying colors. The sound quality was exemplary for a stadium concert, and the giant video screen at the center of the stage afforded fans in even the most distant seats a clear view.
"It's great to be here because this is the first show you've ever had in Petco Park. This is virgin territory," lead singer Mick Jagger told the crowd between the band's third and fourth selections, the hard-rocking "She's So Cold" and the rollicking "Tumbling Dice."
This was the Stones' first area performance since a late 2002 show at what was then the San Diego Sports Arena, and their first stadium concert here since a memorable, rain-soaked gig at Qualcomm Stadium in early 1998.
Though not quite as unforgettable as that electrifying show in a downpour of rain, it was still a night to remember. Rather than coast on automatic pilot or simply stroll down memory lane, Jagger and company acted very much like a band that wants to be judged on the quality of its current concert performance and latest album, the aptly titled "A Bigger Bang," and not just on its storied past.
EARNIE GRAFTON / Union-Tribune
Monitor showing singer Mick Jagger towered over the fans. The stage stood nine stories.
Now in their 43rd year as a performing unit, the Stones are the undisputed elder statesmen of rock 'n' roll. That's assuming, of course, that the term "statesman" can be applied to guitarist Keith Richards, 61, a man whose swaggering demeanor, tousled hair and chain-accented stage attire are at marked odds with the urbane appearance of gray-haired Stones drummer Charlie Watts, 64.
Prior to his riveting, mid-concert vocal showcase of "Slipping Away" and "Infamy," Richards playfully addressed the audience.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen – you have to say that," he said. "I don't know whether you are or not. I don't give a damn. That's your problem."
Yet, while not all of the Stones' members may be aging as gracefully as some of their peers, they combine decades of craft and experience with a youthful, garage-band fervor that sets them apart from anyone else in rock.
It is this combination of poise and finesse with rough and tumble spunk that helped make their Petco concert a winner. That, and one of the richest repertoires any band could ever hope to have.
With Jagger – still hyperactive and improbably skinny at 62 – providing the vocal and visual focal point, the Stones found their groove almost from the outset. They delivered "Start Me Up" in an unhurried manner, in contrast with the too-fast-for-comfort version in their Tuesday night show at the Hollywood Bowl.
The band also benefited greatly from the solid support of its one-woman, six-man supporting group, in particular singer Lisa Fischer, who delivered some sizzling, Tina Turner-esque wails during an impassioned version of Ray Charles' "(Night Time Is) The Right Time."
As with any Stones performance, there was a compelling moment in which the concert passed from being merely very, very good into something that approached magic. Last night it came with the band's eighth selection, "Midnight Rambler."
The longest number of the night at 12 minutes, it allowed the group to flex its instrumental muscles as Jagger blew some mean harmonica and Richards and fellow guitarist Ron Wood, the band's youngest member at 58, traded slashing riffs with infectious enthusiasm.
From there, the Stones soared higher and higher, as they ripped through "Rocks Off," "Miss You," "Sympathy for the Devil," "Get Off My Cloud," a revamped "Jumpin' Jack Flash" and more. New songs, such as "Rough Justice," "Oh No Not You Again" and "It Won't Take Long," were delivered with equal fire and commitment. It was a welcome indication that – even if this is their final tour (as some music industry veterans are predicting) – the Stones want to go out with a bang, not a whimper.
Classics that the band first recorded as many as 40 years ago were delivered with so much energy and excitement that they took on new life, as Jagger strutted to and fro, and the band dug deep to find new dimensions in songs that many in the audience sang along with, word for word.

I completely agree. Has anyone else noticed that a lot of the fan photos are a LOT better than the professional photographers' photos of this tour?
Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful photos with us! |
