Melbourne = Omaha?

It is 10:30am on the East Coast of the US...and the silence on this thread speaks VOLUMES. Maybe when Melbourne wakes up in 5 hrs...we shall see.

I can't believe they have not swapped out Miss You for Emotional Rescue...I thought that was a tour highlight, was it not? Even the older openers, Wanna Be Your Man...19th NB...UMT...LSTNT...where are they? Playing Loving Cup really doesn't make up for the unfortunate/emotional delays with these shows...not that the Stones owe anyone, considering the circumstances...but c'mon guys...turn it up to at least an 8

At least they put Miss You in a good spot for a pee break.

Rambler at #12, piss break, get another Foster's and return in time for Gimme Shelter. :wtf1

Emerald silk, leather, a starry jacket and a flash of taut torso: Rolling Stones' Mick Jagger, Ronnie Wood, Keith Richards and Charlie Watts dazzle Melbourne fans
By Danielle Gusmaroli for Daily Mail Australia

They may look old notching up a staggering 281 years between them but the Rolling Stones are still young at heart.

The ageing rockers stormed the stage at Melbourne's Rod Laver Arena in a dazzling array of outfits that saw them swathed in leather, silk and glitter as they put on an energetic performance on Wednesday.

Frontman Mick Jagger, 71, left fans baying and screaming for more when he flashed his taut torso in a two tone silk shirt, while Ronnie Wood, 67, flicked his raven locks strumming his electric guitar.

The grandfathers left their audience agog as they leapt around with boundless energy for their 14 on Fire show - their 6th since arriving in Australia in October

Guitarist Ronnie, married to much younger Sally Humphreys, 36, looked youthful in a maroon leather jacket and studded skin-tight trousers.

Former wildman, lead guitarist Keith Richards, 70, - whose survival has surprised many who thought he would succumb to drugs and drink - was on top form in a jazzy jacket decorated with silver stars.

As ever he wasn't without his beloved headband as he bounced around on stage, frequently throwing his head back in apparent shows of ecstasy.

Meanwhile, 73-year-old drummer Charlie Watts's energetic drumming showed no sign of slowing down as he did his thing in the background wearing a pale yellow T-shirt.

Mick's strutting style has not been dimmed as he bounded around the stage, pulling that famous pout and with his arms outstretched.

The rockers displayed their customary bravado as the 'world's greatest rock 'n' roll band' with some rare nostalgic touches trotting out old favourites Satisfaction, Gimme Shelter, Paint It Black and Brown Sugar.

Their world tour was halted in Perth earlier this year in March when Jagger's long term girlfriend, designer L'Wren Scott, took her life in her New York apartment.

The at-times feuding band have rallied around Mick who some say is struggling to come to terms with the enormity of his loss

At the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday, Ronnie's son Tyrone espoused his admiration for Mick for getting back on stage and strutting his stuff.

He told Daily Mail Australia: 'He's a very strong man,' adding: 'There's nothing not to admire [about him].'

The foursome returned to Adelaide to restart the tour in mid-October, and will play their next show in shows in South and Western Australia before heading to Auckland, New Zealand.

They should take a lesson from Charlie and stop with the puckered lips all the time...that pic of Keith just smiling is awesome (even with the return of the bandana!!)

OK review but more of a fashion update than report on the quality of the show. Still wish I had been there!

The show wasn't bad but Mick was really off tonight and it was noticeable. He must have had a cold because he often sounded monotone - he couldn't hit the high notes and chose to take a back seat to Lisa and Bernard.

I was in the pit and chose to leave the area half way through satisfaction so I could get Charlie's drumstick. He threw it towards the back of the pit, it bounced off a guys head, skipped off the stage and came right to me.

Very Cool. I caught one from B-Stage in DC during NeSec tour...

Getting a drumstick from Charlie is better than catching beads on Mardi Gras. :areyoufuckingserious

I wonder if Charlie caught that video of the 3 year old jammin drums with an orchestra ? The lil one was Awesome.

I enetered this thread to say "No Rocks Off - No header for this show" but after watching those pictures (thanks) we have one!!

As long as I'm breathing my dear Voo, I'll be searching for pics.

Here are some amazing shots taken by IORR's latvianinexile.

The boys are looking good! Ronnie gives good face. MICK gives good hands. Charlie gives good concentration. And KEEF gives One Love, and he's happy to be anywhere! No point in setlist whining, it's simple repeats, but the greatest songs in the world and the greatest band in the world! Wouldn't travel from city to city anymore, but I think The Stones are just trying to entertain different people in different parts of the world with the songs of their legacy.

No one poses better than they do. :nooslajaleisk

I have never once taken a jimmy-riddle during the awesome groove ditty that is Miss You.

It would take prostate probs of an above average sort to cause one to sidestep - for a sizeable slash or even a tiny tiddle (up in a loo in the hall's rafters) - such a welter of lovely groove-possibilities as this, or similar, surely?

Hi All. The Melbourne based Rolling Stones podcast 'Stonesmonth' once again caught up with it's co-host Johnny straight after last night show at Rod Laver.
Here tis.

The only reason I check the setlist every time is the distant hope that Mick Taylor will play more than one song, but the two chiefs never fail to disappoint.

GREAT pics MarshallG
