Now, that's dedication! :areyoufuckingserious

Still have every ticket stub too :areyoufuckingserious

That setlists page is in the midst of being corrected and updated and the new version should be available in the next week or so.

Not gonna post the setlists here, but the shows Ive been at (and the openers - many of which I had to look up as there were many that I dont remember, didnt see or tried to forget) were :

1) Slane Castle, Ireland 24 July 1982 (J Geils Band, George Thorogood & The Destroyers. The Chieftains)

2) and 3) Parc des Princes, Paris 22 and 23 June 1990. (Gun)
4) Hampden Park, Glasgow 9 July 1990 (Gun)

Had tickets for Lansdowne Road, Dublin 16th July but show was cancelled.

5) and 6) Wembley Stadium, London 24 & 25 August 1990 (Dan Reed Network) (final shows of the Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle tour and Wyman's last full gig)

7) and 8) Hippodrome de Longchamps, Paris 30 June and 1 July 1995 (Bon Jovi). Fortunately I missed the opening act on the first night as I had a VIP pass. Not so lucky second time around.

9), 10) and 11) Wembley Stadium, London 11, 15 & 16 July 1995 (Black Crows)

12) and 13) Feyenoord Stadium, Rotterdam 29 & 30 August 1995 (Big Country). (final shows of the VL tour)

14) Stade de France, Paris 25 July 1998 (Jean-Louis Aubert)

15) and 16) Civic Centre, Hartford, Ct 28 & 29 March 1999 (Goo Goo Dolls). (Didnt see them though. Having too much fun in the Hartford Brewery. I didnt get to see many opening acts from here on for similar reasons)

17) Murrayfield Stadium, Edinburgh 4 June 1999
18) Don Valley Stadium, Sheffield 6 June 1999
19) Shepherd's Bush Empire, London 8 June 1999
20) & 21) Wembley Stadium, London 11 & 12 June 1999
(all shows with Sheryl Crow as opening act. The four stadium shows had been rescheduled from summer 1998. I did see all of Sheryl's shows, and she was very good)

22) Madison Square Garden, New York 26 September 2002
23) Giants Stadium, East Rutherford, NJ 28 September 2002
(both shows with The Pretenders. Saw the last five minutes of each)

24) Staples Centre, Los Angeles, 31 October 2002
25) Edison Field, Anaheim, Ca. 2 November 2002
(both shows with Sheryl Crow)

26) Twickenham Stadium, London 24 August 2003 (Starsailor)
(I had tickets for the show the day before, which was postponed until 20 September. I didnt go back for the rearranged show)
27) Astoria, London 27 August 2003 (the Thrills)
28) Wembley Arena, London 29 August 2003 (best Stones gig I've ever seen) (Feeder)
29) and 30) SECC Arena, Glasgow, 1 & 3 September 2003 (I flew home the day in between for 18 hours. It worked out cheaper) (Idlewild opened)
31) and 32) The Point, Dublin 9 & 11 September 2003. (Cooper temple Clause opened the first night (the worst band I've ever heard in my life) and The Thrills the second night)
33) and 34) Wembley Arena, London, 13 & 15 September 2003 (Tim Burgess on the 13th and The Darkness on the 15th). I had a spare ticket for the 13th and sold it to a complete stranger on the street, who just happened to be Mojoman)

35) and 36) Madison Square Garden, New York 18 & 20 January 2006 (Metric)
37) Olympiastadion, Berlin 21 July 2006 (Feeder)
38) Palais Nikaia, Nice 5 August 2006 (Kasabian)
39) and 40) Twickenham Stadium, London 20 & 22 August 2006 (Feeder/20th, Charlatans/22nd)
41) Hampden Park, Glasgow 25 August 2006 (The CHarlatans)

42) Estadio Alvalade, Lisbon, Portugal, 25 June 2007 (Jet)
43) Estadio Calderon, Madrid, Spain, 28 June 2007 (Jet)
44) Slane Castle, Ireland 18 August 2007 (Frankie Gavin, The Hold Steady, Tinariwen, The Charlatans)
45), 46) and 47) The 02 Arena, London 21, 23 & 26 August 2007 (the Kooks, Jet and The Enemy respectively were the opening acts each night). (Final shows of the ABB tour)
(I think the only 2006-07 shows where I saw the opening acts were Nice and Slane)

48) 02 Arena, London 25 November 2012. (No opener)
49 will be Hyde Park on 6 July.

Just looking at that list and shows #1 and #44 were the only ones where I was able to go home the same night. All but four (#31 & 32 being the others) necessitated at least one flight and/or journey by boat.

If and when did Marilyn Manson ever open for the Stones????

WOW WOW WOW Gimme Shelter

Quite a historical Review.

So they have played Flip The Switch !

I'm trying to figure out which Keith Richards song is my FAV !
too many good ones (spliff)

Gazza, regarding #44, did you get to see all the acts at Slane?

I got there about 45 minutes before the Stones went on (just as the last warm-up band was finishing). Got some bad directions from Dublin, took about 3 1/2 hours to get there and I wasn't stuck in traffic until the last 20 minutes. Got back to my B&B about 3AM.

I think I may have done. Certainly was there for Tinirawen, Charlatans and Hold Steady. I actually had to look up who opened for them. I could only remember Tinirawen and that was more for how they looked than anything else.

What a bizarre day. I had to throw my trainers out after that as the mud ruined them

2005-2006 I spent more on beer than tickets.

1981 - Buffalo - tickets were $17
Passed up tickets to Syracuse - idiot
1989 - DC RFK - had tickets for both shows, but gave 2 away.
1994 - DC RFK - both shows
1997 - Jack Kent Cook Stadium
1997 - Syracuse (first time I met FPM)
1999 - former MCI center DC - both No Security Shows (first time I met Sir Stonesalot, Stonesdoug, and a shitload of others like Short Fat Daddy from Atlanta and a guy named Ridgely).
Passed up tickets to Hartford in '99 that Cockroach had - missed I Got The Blues - very bummed.
2002 - Boston opener
2002 - Philly (first show with TomL)
2002 - NYC (MSG and Giants - special thanks always to Maxmeister)
2002 - FedEx field - sniper was on the loose - big Shidoobee section
2002 - Hartford CT - (met Cockroach for the first time)
2003 - MSG pay-per-view (first time I met a load of people - scope & mrs. scope)
2003 - Denver (First Chiba Chariot with moonie and maxmeister)
2003 - SARS Toronto (first show with LJ and TomL)
2005 - Boston opener - (second chiba chariot with LJ and the missus) (met Nellcote, and many others)
2005 - Chicago - first time I met Pammy & poopy and a shitload of others.
2005 - NYC - MSG - huge party -- jesus people from everywhere.
2005 - Baltimore
Missed 3 other shows that TomL had tickets for - Hershey, UVA and DC.
2006 - Chicago (She Was Hot)
2006 -AC show (both of them!!!! 3rd chiba chariot)

That's a whole lotta fun right there!

"2006 -AC show (both of them!!!! 3rd chiba chariot)"

BOTH of them?
Did you have a private show while the rest of us got wasted at the AC Bar and Grill???

Looking at that list, and counting DC in June, I've gone to more shows with you and Tom than anyone else.
And I'm not including Buffalo 81 as the three of us were there but hadn't met yet.

Jan. 2006! They also played MSG & Giants in September '05.

Thanks Gazza - glad someone is checking the facts.

I have met some really great friends over the years -- writing that all out reminded me of how lucky we all are to have such a great connection through this band.

It's a hell of a lot more than scoring seats and good setlists!

would need to check those (James Karnbach's book is a great source for listing the opening acts, if anyone has it) but off the top of my head, I presume it was Peter Tosh for the '78 shows, Living Colour for your Toronto '89 shows and maybe Vancouver too.

For 1997 -

Charlotte - Blues Traveller
Nashville - Sheryl Crow
Atlanta - Third Eye Blind
MSG - Fiona Apple

Atlanta 2002 - No Doubt
Nashville 2002 - Lifehouse

Toronto 2005 - Beck
Charlotte 2005 - Joss Stone
Atlanta 2005 - Wilco
Memphis 2005 - Los Lonely Boys
Atlanta 2006 - Soulive

Exactly. I knew it had to be the Jan 2006 MSG shows because I remember meeting you and Mindy before the gigs at Stouts - whereas I wasnt in the US for any 2005 shows.

Man, I wish I got to see them pre-1989. I begged my grandfather to let me go to Rome to see a show in 1982 while I was in Greece for the summer, but there was no way he was letting me go.

1-2-3. Instead I started in L.A., with three of the four shows (including the Clapton guest appearance) in 1989. In Living Color and Guns N Roses opening.
4. Sept. 4, 1994 in Foxboro. (Exact date thanks to ticket stub I tweeted a few months ago)
5. September 1998 in Athens. (Pyx Lax opened, the only opening act I can remember besides the 89 LA shows.)
6. October 2002, Washington (Landover actually).
7. August 2006, Cardiff.
8. June 2007, San Sebastian.
9. July 2007, Belgrade.
10. August 2007, Slane Castle.
11-12-13. August 2007, London
14-15. November 2012, London
16-17. December 2012, Newark.
18. May 2013, Los Angeles. (with Macdaddy via Rocks Off board)
19. May 2013, Oakland.
20. May 2013, San Jose.
to come ...
21-22. July 2013, Hyde Park.

"I knew it had to be the Jan 2006 MSG shows because I remember meeting you and Mindy before the gigs at Stouts"

Yeah me and the missus discuss that pre-party often.
Mindy just remembers you being too hot in your coat, then too cold without out it!

I stopped reading at this point of your post.

This sounds like fun...I'm going to see if I can remember them all without looking anything up.

1. 1975: Philly/Spectrum, opening act the Commodores. I was 17 and hitch-hiked to the show.
2. 1978: Philly/JFK Stadium, openers Peter Tosh, Foreigner; I think 38 Special tried to play afterwards but got their equipment trashed by the angry crowd.
3. 1979: New Barbarians, Pittsburgh/Civic Arena. No opener.
4. 1981: Philly/JFK Stadium, 2nd day; openers George Thorogood, who the crowd loved, and Journey, who were booed off the stage.
5. 1989: DC/RFK Stadium; opener Living Color.
6. 1994: DC/RFK Stadium; opener Counting Crows, who I missed. Tour opener.
7. 1995: Pittsburgh/3 River Stadium; opener Blind Melon
8: 1997: Philly/Veteran Stadium; don't remember the opener
9: 1997: Atlanta/stadium; don't remember the name of the stadium or the opener.
10: 1998: NYC/MSG; opener Fiona Apple.
11. 1998: Syracuse; opener Our Lady Peace. Met Nanky at a biker bar beforehand.
12: 1999: Pittsburgh/Civic Arena; opener the Corrs.
13. 1999: DC #1. Don't recall the opener.
14: 1999: DC #2. Ditto.
15: 1999: Chicago, opener Jonny Lang.
1999: Met Keith Richards at the Beacon Theater at a Tom Waits show.
16: 2003: Philly/Veteran Stadium, don't recall the opener
17: 2003: Philly/Tower Theater, don't recall the opener
18: 2005: Hershey Stadium, opener Beck
19: 2005: NYC/MSG. The infamous pouting across the street incident.

Oh hell. I know I saw them at the Meadowlands at least once. I think there might have
been another one I forgot too...yes, there was a big meet-up after another MSG show.
Ah well, I've got it all written down somewhere.
