Three Keith songs (only the second time ever) - but same length of set (19 songs).

Interesting to a point, but a bit significant that the only song they left out was the only 'new' one.

Mick obviously not quite 100% yet then if he's singing a song less and omitting certain songs that maybe he feels would be a strain on his vocal cords

Some nice choices. Good to see 'Sweet Virginia' back today.

Gazza, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this the first time SV has been played since A Bigger Bang? It has not been played "this tour" has it??

Title: Re: The Rolling Stones Nov 12 Allphones Arena Sydney
Post by Gazza on Nov 12^th, 2014 at 5:57am

i'd need to check to be 100% sure, but I think the last time they played it was in Helsinki in August 2007

Video of 'Start Me Up'.

Interesting to listen to Mick's phrasing on this one. Some lines sung in a lower register, not reaching for the more 'shouty' parts of the song, leaving the end of a few of the lines to Bernard and Lisa, etc.

Better safe than sorry!

" I called it ~ 3 KEEF songs! Less stress for MICK's vocals. "

< ------ The band should make this permanent . I am quite sure Keef would not mind singing three songs per gig and it would give Mick a chance to rest his vocals . These cats are not twenty - two years old anymore .

Glorious version of 'Sweet Virginia'. Takes me back to seeing them play it beautifully at a show I saw in Anaheim in 2002.

More country-flavoured songs like this, please!

Nice sax solo by Tim Ries. Quite different from the way Bobby plays it.

OK I been noticing lately that MICK is singing ahead of the music, and he is rushing through the lyrics. He started doing it with Doom & Gloom, but now this is becoming a habit on almost all of the songs. You can notice this on Sweet Virginia for sure.

If he is changing the way he phrases lines, thats a sign of an evolving performing artist. A far better alternative than blandly phrasing the lyric the same way as on the record for decades on end.

Good enough for Sinatra, Dylan et al, then good enough for Mick!
