mine has to be just prior to the boys getting on stage.
The band are in a lift, you can hear Bill Clinton crapping on onstage

that shot of Keef just blew me away

i turned to my mate and almost yelped as i said ' he is the king of farking cool'

to me it was one of the highlights of the film
with the madness around them, Keef just exuded this cool which no-on on the planet can match.


fark i love this band

:interestingstuffronnie

buddy guy and keef spitting out the cig... he is the only person who makes smoking look cool....

Last shot of Keith on stage.
Road warrior...givin it all he's got.

Godamn thought makes me choke up.
SAL has been a great Stones "fix" for us.

nice thread.

LJ.

i remember the shot LJ
it looks like Keef cant get up
just hugging the guitar

Mick busting through the doorway on SFTD....and the Buddy Guy stare....and (like LJ) Keef at the end of the show

Well the whole Champagne and Reefer segment was excellent....but especially the Buddy stare!!!

Keith handing a bemused Buddy Guy his guitar and then the sight of the old bluesman just waddling off the stage. Priceless.  :)

the Glimmer Twins sharing the mike on 'Faraway Eyes'

Two stick out

Buddy's stare (one of the few lingering shots in a film with too many rapid jump cuts)

Keith showing his age and fragility by looking like he's about to collapse at the end, and then a second later cracking a smile and snapping back to attention as if he's indestructible.

To these I would add Mick during Shattered.  His performance on that song is hilariously awesome.  

when the band first comes on stage and it went from regular size screen to IMAX!

There were many hilites.However I thought the Keef at the end "exhausted" was a put on.Champagne was incredible as was Faraway Eyes.Cant help but love the ending shot zooming out of the band leaving the back door past Marty and the NYC skylites and the famous shot in the sky off to the right burning bright! (trying not to ruin it for those who havent seen it yet)

To me that was the best, The Blues being played with Buddy & The Stones are when they really shine.

the Mick and Keef duet on Far Away Eyes was a nice moment (and something which they should do more often than every 30 years or so) but the performance of the song itself (or rather Mick's vocal) was the lowpoint of the film for me.

Like everyone already said, Champagne and Reefer and Keith at the end were my favorite parts. I also loved the Mick going wild and Keith Playing his solo on one knee during Sympathy. Also no one mentioned You got the Silver, which I thought was excellent. Keef just looked so Godly and mysterious while singing with smoke all around him. And it showed the love he has for Ronnie. Only thing that ruined it was Blondie playing guitar in the shadow. :(

You know Gazza others have said that too.Maybe I was so delighted to hear it I missed the vocals being off.I'll see next time through if I share that.Perhpas next time I'll back off on the beers too!....Nahhhhhhhhh

Lisa shimmy-ng with Mick--was it during She's So Cold?

that was very cool.  i agree.  i thought for a moment the whole flick was going to be regular theater size on a huge imax screen.

but to answer the question....my favorite parts were the interviews before they went into just my imagination and the jmi song.  

The moment that dufus Jack White left the stage, having almost ruined Loving Cup (one of my favs).

I am the unluckiest bastrad in the world - I blinked during the cig spit! :wtf1

Jack White Rocked you bastard! :)

If it sounded bad it certainly wasn't Jack's fault. ;)
