The song vote is now early in the set (unless they change that) and I believe it's a bit rigged.  So Shine a Light or, on the outside, Let it Bleed, are the best fits for an early song.

Poplar: picked than name because I lived on Poplar Street in downtown Charlotte (2001/2?). All these years later, staying in a hotel a block away, on my birthday, about to see the fucking stones. This is insane.

Just freaking genius. One quick simple photo of mick being unrecognized in a bar
and it has trended top 5 on twitter all day. its the talk of Charlotte...

really good for last minute ticket sales

this charlie watts tour appropriately has the most understated marketing of
any stones tour ever, by far, and its working

Spot on observation about the “marketing.” Show already had a little buzz now every fucking person in Charlotte knows about the thirsty beaver visit. They’re going to fill the stadium tonight.

Are you ready?

"Tweets (still trending):

"Co-owner of the Thirsty Beaver Brian Wilson tells me Mick Jagger went unnoticed
last night. Turns out the people to the right of him in the photo have floor tickets
to the show tonight and they didn’t even realize it was him"

"OK, mick jagger was in a bar. Would you people please stop tweeting about it!"

and now news articles about it everywhere !

one fucking photo. madness. hilarious. cool.

make that two trending photos now, this one without mick

Lucky - Let It Be is one of my favs.

So I bought 4 tickets to go with my daughter (Nankette #2), way back when, but forgot completely that we had the tickets.  Anyhow, couldn't go this time, but she went with her friends and it sure sounded like they had a blast.  So cool that my daughter can go see my favorite band that has been on this planet since the day I was born, almost 40 years to the day that I first saw them in 1981, when I was 18.  Time truly waits for no one.

Great review of an "astonishing" performance by Mick.  I love reading these accounts when people watch Mick Jagger.

it reminds me a bit of the bar in the "waiting on a friend" vid

thanks for all the setlist updates, photos and videos. Great stuff.

Jim got so close there with his video camera it looked like they were playing in a club!  Jini always appears to be onstage!

https://rocksoff.org/headers2021/j1-charlotte-14.jpg

Greatestism. Our new drummer is black.

It's amazing how Charlie always seemed to be the real bridge between Mick and Keith, and his passing seems to have brought them closer together than any time in the past 40 years. The intros and their interactions on stage clearly seem to show a reawakened affection for each other.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xpHLiXIwCs

Was a moment where Mick missed a spot in 19th. Keith was standing right beside him and they had a big laugh, playing through it. Way more of that last night than I remember in the 26 years I’ve been seeing them. They also seemed to share a few laughs among each other about being winded/needing water.

Man, I watched the videos this morning and was just smiling ear to ear. It seems that their way of paying tribute to Charlie is by emulating his consistency, professionalism, and calm. They are so relaxed in the zone and the love between Mick and Keith especially is a joy to watch. And they're playing so damn well; this is probably the best I've heard Keith since the Zip Code tour.

Still baffled by the "Brown Sugar" absence, but that's a discussion for another thread. Really good set list; always up for "IORR" taking a break, and would've preferred "Shine" or "Eyes" to "Let It Bleed," but all around it seems like they gave a truly spectacular show. "Trouble's A-Coming" sounded fucking great and super locked in.

https://youtu.be/9M4h1oNtrAI

https://youtu.be/yJFRV3DzAho

They're playing their hearts out.

Yea, I cannot stop watching that "Jumping Jack Flash." That was fucking insane. Mick was out of his mind and it's good to see how can still do those quick sprints, but man Keith is also just on fire. Slashing and kicking and hammering the chords into the ground. He's alive again. "Before They Make Me Run" was also an incredibly strong performance. He can sing and play at the same time again.

more mindblowing shit from these motherfuckers (via jim powers)

Goddam right!

Back yesterday and all refreshed and was able to process this event clearly.

IT WAS FANTASTIC!!

We got very lucky with our lucky dips.
2 of us in the PIT on Keefs side, the other 2 in Section A on the field right behind the PIT.

Like Nanky's post earlier, this was a truly great night for myself for similar reasons. I was sorry we didn't get to hang this time. A few other swell faces made the day even better. Hanging out with Sweet Virginia is always a treat.

When we bought these tickets 20 months ago or so, my girls would have been 14 (the same age I was for my first Stones show)...that was the plan.

This weekend they were 16 and at their first show with their old man...it was simply one of the happiest nites of my life.

The band was SHARP!
The girls were excited and a bit nervous...

They came out of the show fully baptized in the church of Rock and Stones.

From the full stadium experience to a full on Stones show up front and personal...Keef and Mick 20 ft away on the side catwalks...pyrotechs...and the huge screens...What they had seen on You Tube never did it justice...they were blown away by all.

The kicker was when one daughter, after the show, mentioned that she knew a lot of the songs from their Rock-a-by-Baby Stones CD...

Anyway...the show...

I was very impressed with the performance of Ghost town the song was played really well...all on the stage seemed to be in the groove. Jaggers actual performance, moves...rivaled what he does during songs like MR or OOC...

The Drummer...He was fine...all around...some noticeable fills here and there...a slight change up on some songs...but that is to be expected.
To paraphrase what Lennon's famously once said..." ..they passed the audition."

This show did not feel like they phoned it in. It couldn't possibly have been. Its a whole new thing for them, if that makes sense.
Ronny, Keef and Mick all sincerely looked and acted like they were having FUN...LOTS of fun up on the stage.


A few tears shed during the opening and the closing, sure...but the show was one of the best I have ever seen. This was the prefect way to walk away from all of this into the proverbial sunset.

If you have any doubts, just go and enjoy it.

Been waiting for your review PA.
So happy the ticket gods blessed you with those seats. Clearly those gods knew this was an extra special group of 4. ;) I've been fortunate to observe many of my friends sharing the magic with their own children and it's always so special for all, especially the "little ones" who literally have been listening to this Band since their days in the womb.

Thrilled for all of you. Sounds like a perfect soundtrack for that walk into the Sunset. Buffalo 2015 was the same for me. I'll never top it so why try?

The pics posted earlier on my behalf (Jagger kneeling) was during MR...and YES! It was a great rendition. I cant get tired of that song live...and I mean performed in front of me live...it is really, to this day, a powerful piece to watch and hear.

Yet another great picture from Charlotte, this one by Jeff Hahne with thanks to Sue!!

I haven't seen any audience audio or video sources of Charlotte yet, but if and when any appear, I made some CD and DVD covers! I will post preview images and links to the full size covers, to follow.
