I just bought my ticket for Tampa.  :D

Dropped $170 for rear GA. Almost dropped 650 for pit tickets back when they were avaliable but rear GA will do just fine for this working class homeboy.

But if anyone sees a good deal pop up for the show do let me know. Wouldn't mind upgrading. :)

Long live the Stones!

Three tour debuts last night - Rocks Off, Cloud, Ruby Tuesday

While none of them are exactly rarities, its good to see a little bit of a shake up. Then again, this is the only stop on the tour where they're playing two shows, so a bit of variation is to be expected.  'Street Fighting Man' will probably be back as the opener at the second show.

I saw a snippet of Come in My Kitchen was played last night during Rambler. Is this true?

Great show indeed.
Wonderful change-ups.
Incredible first 6 songs...time capsule stuff for sure!!

Back to basic for LA2?
Who knows?

It frequently is lately.  I’m so psyched for Sunday, flying in from Portland for what I’m fairly certain is my goodbye to them.

Do you know the film "Koyaanisqatsi: Life Out of Balance"?  A 1982 American experimental
non-narrative film with music composed by Philip Glass...

The video opening for "Gimme Shelter" is either based on it or taken directly from it...

the undercurrent of this otherwise joyous tour (ghost town, trouble's a'coming, 19th breakdown...)
is quite doomy. this mix of emotions plays well currently inside my head and heart...

so i figured, if they went so far as to do an official poster for pittsburgh that was doomy,
then why shouldnt i go a little doomy for my LA2 alt poster ?

even before i saw the above concert vid, i'd already titled my poster...

Gimme Shelter

Some dark jokes from Mick too, in his celebrity audience mentions:

1) he thanked Kirk Douglas for being there (he's dead)
2) he said Paul McCartney would be joining the band later, to do a blues cover
3) he congratulated Gavin Newsome on his election victory (more than a few boos)
and on successfully ignoring his own mask mandate at his victory dinner

Think he's been throwing in a few lines from that to the song for a few years now.

Brilliant montage. Haven't seen that movie in decades. It was quite spectacular at the time. Will have to try and track it down again!

My first ever pit experience thanks to a mysterious benefactor.

The impromptu press conference at Burbank Airport putting them on all the news channels was a stroke of genius in selling at least most of the rest of the lower priced to mid range tickets while the unsold 500$ seat ended up as Lucky Dips. Old school media still works when you use it right and have the access to do it. It made just another concert a major can't be missed event for the first time since 1989.

Otherwise a great show, Rocks Off is my all time favorite song and they played it at the one 2013 arena show I missed so it was very exciting to get that and the most Brian Jones era songs in any single setlist that I remember seeing.

Now some pix by SweetVirginia, sorry for the delay I received them early in the morning but was on the plant

Jesus, that "Rocks Off" was incredible. I've never heard it sound that strong live. Is it too much to ask for them to give "Rip This Joint" a go? They can handle it.

2 different friends got in thanks to 5$ tickets that were offered somewhere (one was via a 911 operator)

5-star review in the Independent yesterday


The Rolling Stones review, Los Angeles: How is it possible that they’re still in their prime?


A full six decades after Mick Jagger and Keith Richards first laid eyes on each other, they remain in rude health



Kevin E G Perry
1 day ago

There’s a moment during the Rolling Stones’ triumphant return to Los Angeles that stays with me long after the show is over. It comes right at the end, after the geriatric band blast through a straight two hours of the finest rock’n’roll songs ever written. They’re midway through a climactic “Satisfaction” and Mick Jagger – who is 78 years old and by this point has done a marathon’s worth of strutting – is out at the end of his catwalk still giving his all. You can picture it: up on his tippy-toes with his arms flowing from side to side as though he’s performing an incantation. There is a reason people write songs dedicated to his moves.

He turns around to see that Keith Richards, a mere child of 77, has prowled his way down the runway to meet him. The guitarist lets his instrument go slack around his neck and with his pirate’s grin starts to mimic Jagger’s dancing in that matey, half-assed way a non-dancer does when faced with a pro. They’re only about a foot from each other, looking right in each other’s eyes, and they both just start laughing. Looking at the picture of pure joy splashed across their faces, I have to think: seriously, what are the odds?

Jagger and Richards, as any student of rock mythology can tell you, met on a platform at Dartford Station on the morning of 17 October 1961. Their next show at the SoFi Stadium, on Sunday night (17 October) will mark exactly 60 years of the prototypical rock partnership. Their diamond anniversary. Few marriages last this long, and even fewer bands. Throughout their turbulent relationship, Jagger and Richards have fought, feuded, sniped and publicly made fun of each other’s genitalia, but somehow they’ve always come back to each other. What’s even more remarkable is that by tonight’s evidence, impossibly, they’re still at the top of their game.

By their own standards, the show is a relatively stripped-down production. We get a few fireworks for the opening “Let’s Spend The Night Together” and a couple more to accompany a majestic “Sympathy For The Devil”. But for the most part, this is just a band onstage playing their hits, confident in the knowledge that no further theatrics are required when you have “Honky Tonk Woman”, “Paint It Black”, “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” and “Gimme Shelter” in your arsenal.

The only sadness about the show is that Charlie Watts, who died in August, is of course greatly missed. The show opens with a montage of his performances over the decades; Jagger later dedicates the show to his memory. Watts’s replacement behind the drums, longtime Stones accomplice Steve Jordan, rocks... but it’s not the same roll. Guitarist Ronnie Wood, meanwhile, keeps even Jagger on his toes by bounding around the stage like a puppy in sparkling sneakers. Really, though, it is hard to take your eyes off Jagger and Richards, and marvel at whatever miraculous combination of fate, luck and exotic medical procedures has enabled them to still by playing shows like this. Particularly because they’re at an age when most of us will be glad if we can bend down far enough to put on our own slippers.


Jagger, clearly, still has all his wits about him. At one point, he titillates the crowd by announcing that Paul McCartney is in the building, and will be joining the band for a “blues rock cover”. It’s a gentle dig back at McCartney’s recent claim that the Stones are just “a blues cover band”. The Beatles and The Stones still feuding in 2021? Some things really do never change.
