thanks phil!!! poor quality hell no!! for 1970 they're terrific, people are so spoiled with photographs by great proffessional photographers and today with digital camera's. concerts were one of the most difficult places to take photographs unless you were real close, back then you had to had to push the boundries of film, you had quick changes in light that tricked light meters, not to mention fast action.

'Poor quality'?? They're... greeaat! Especially the top one with Mick and Keith. That red cardigan Keith is sporting seemed to follow him everywhere circa 1969-70

One funny thing I remember is that Mick J lost his metal belt during this concert. That belt we all new from the Hyde Park concert and the 1969 US Tour.
After the whipping scenario during Midnight Rambler Mick left the belt lying on the stage floor.
Just seconds later a skinny blonde girl climbed on stage, grabbed the belt and jumped back into the audience before Mick had realized what happend. Bill was the only one who - obviously very amused -
saw it coming. A big big grin on his face I saw. Guess I will never forget that. Sometimes I wonder if that
Girl still has the belt.

Just for the record.
Here's a pic from the first Stones concert I attended. March 1967.
Scanned from an old magazine from back then.

Bill really had some fun that night. As said before, he quite amused watched the belt incident and then even had a bigger smile on his face when at one point three or four girls on the stand on his side lifted their t-shirts or opened their blouses and bared the boobs. Well, I liked that too.
