Title: Mick Taylor again...
Post by PaulinCanada on Nov 29^th, 2012 at 4:32pm

On a nostalgic level, it brought a tear to my eye(s) seeing the band playing together again...wow...

Well...I just wanted to say how great it has been to see MT playing with the band after all these years...I couldn't believe my eyes watching Mick T move around the stage, even up front with Mick J....wow, amazing....

Anyhow, Midnight Rambler was pretty awesome, (and I am not trying to start a flame war with RW fans) I haven't heard a lead guitar bouncing around the harmonica, lead vocals for almost 39 years...it was awesome....

I wish Mick T would be featured on more the of setlist but a 12 minute song is pretty good...

I was hoping to see Bill W and Mick T playing together and maybe doing an encore and taking the bow together...oh well, the
important thing is the music!

Thank you Mick J and Keith for bringing Mick T back

PS if any of the entourage is reading this, tell them we want more Mick T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know people who don't like us MT fans....

I love MT and his guitar playing....I think his bluesy leads perfectly complemented the amazing songs that Jagger/Richard wrote (and I guess some of the songs that MT helped write!)

The other awesome part of the MT era is that it was also the Jimmy Miller era....

It was also the Jim Price/Bobby Keys era....

It was the Nicky Hopkins/Billy Preston era.....

It was the Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers, Exile, Goats Head Soup and It's Only Rock n Roll era

And it will never happen again....

But the magic was there with MT back on the stage

Amen!

I'm a big Mick T. fan, I'm hoping he'll stay on for every concert, a tour would be fantastic, it would help him out $$$$$ too.

Why wouldn't he show up at every gig? He has nothing better that these shows to do. I bet you he cancels the gig he has planned for the 15th. He can either be on the biggest pay per view concert of all time or play a hole in the wall.

He was so much better that the 1st night. I think he was either nervous or drunk, but he was meandering and actually, over played. But he was superb this 2nd show. Keith seemed almost asleep! lol. MT just plays so fluidly. I am so glad they got him there. Bill too, but fucking hell, MT on Rambler again is just a mind blower.

Yeah something was off the first night. Drunk, nerves both.

Personally, I cringed at the hopping around bit he was doing and the hamming and chasing Mick. But last night was exactly how I've been picturing it would be with him back in the fold. Was just so good.

Never thought of the Stones as a 3 guitar lineup working. But it really worked well. Could only be with Taylor. He just fits.

Even as a hired gun he'd still probably make more than he does from his solo shows.

Well I am certainly hoping MICK T stays in the lineup for the NY and NJ shows. I think we've seen the last of Bill W so if that was a package deal MICK T could be over as well. I wish someone can confirm this!
