From the band website:
The band celebrated today’s US rerelease of STICKY FINGERS by playing gems from the album including ‘Can’t You Hear Me Knocking’ and ‘You Gotta Move’. Also played tonight, for the first time on this tour, was song vote winner ‘Some Girls’, which won the vote by a landslide of 34%. Mick said: “What can I say, the loudest audience so far! ATLANTA! Not forgetting the 266 people who came from Macon, and very welcome they are too.” Keith said: “Good evening Atlanta! I needed that! It’s great to be back here, it’s been a while. Great to be down south again, good to see you guys, good to see anybody!” Mick introduced the band members: “First I want to introduce you to Lisa Fischer, our Georgia peach! And right behind her, Mr Bernard Fowler, our local peach fancier On the keyboards and horns Matt Clifford On the saxophone, Tim Ries On the tenor, Karl Denson We were driving round Georgia, and we found this amazing guy, a tree farmer, and we invited him to play on stage with us tonight. Local boy made good, Chuck Leavell! On the bass Darryl Jones! This guy not really from the south, south of london, no. South of England. On the guitar RONNIE WOOD! On the drums CHARLIE WATTS! Frankly my dear, he just doesn’t give a damn… And on guitars and now the vocals KEITH RICHARDS!” The Rolling Stones are now headed further south to Orlando, Florida, where they are playing the Citrus Bowl. See you there! |

A note about the Stones' "fan vote" thing: they seem to treat it (if indeed they treat it at all, themselves), as if it were geared to very young children: such obvious and usual songs, no mystery or challenge, nothing potentially challenging to their post-infantile audiences these days (don't mean to be unduly harsh, but isn't that the case these days, relatively speaking?).
The vote thing is an embarrassment to the band and their legacy - shit, would "She Was Hot" (just for example) be too hard to learn and be put up for vote? |
|
Title: Re: Bobby Dodd Stadium Ga Tech, Atlanta thread Post by WaiteringOnAFiend on Jun 10th, 2015 at 12:47am
'She Wa' Ho''... is that's what's necessary at this juncture? 'Summer Ro'man' and 'Where The Goys All Grow' ?
'Rai' Fall Dow'' might still be necessary, as back-up, at some showery moment? |

Title: Re: Bobby Dodd Stadium Ga Tech, Atlanta thread Post by gimmekeef on Jun 10th, 2015 at 9:56am Concert review and photos: The Rolling Stones affirm their greatness in Atlanta June 10, 2015 | Filed in: ajc music scene, atlanta concerts, concert photos, concert review, rolling stones. BY MELISSA RUGGIERI Centuries from now, historians will stumble upon footage from a 2000s-era Rolling Stones concert and gape. “How old are those dudes?” they’ll wonder, refusing to believe that a bunch of guys ranging from 68 to 74 years of age were capable of such visceral showmanship, such heartily performed songs, such unbelievable stamina. But yes, as we’ve witnessed every few years for the past couple of decades, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts – the Core Four of Stones Inc. – hit the road with a package of muscle and might and OK, a few more wrinkles. It’s what they know. It’s what they love. And the most striking thing about their performance at Bobby Dodd Stadium on this “Zip Code” tour (30332 for those wondering), is how much they still care. Keith Richards, still having a ball. Photo: Robb D. Cohen /.RobbsPhotos.com Keith Richards, still having a ball. Photo: Robb D. Cohen /.RobbsPhotos.com Even though you know Richards is slicing through the signature riff of “Start Me Up” – Tuesday’s opening salvo – for the thousandth or so time, and that Jagger has hopscotched hundreds of miles down the catwalk that juts halfway down the field, they still make it look and sound effortless. For their first Atlanta appearance since two performances at Philips Arena during the “A Bigger Bang” tour in October 2005 and February 2006, The Rolling Stones presented a set list that commendably shuffled the gotta-play classic rock radio darlings (a deeply funky “Miss You,” a loose “Tumbling Dice”) with hardcore fan favorites that thrilled most in the crowd of 40,000-plus. The reissue of “Sticky Fingers” arrived Tuesday as well, and, as they’ve done throughout the tour, the band paid homage. Serrated guitar from Richards – as well as a charming smirk that spread into a giant grin as he soloed – coated “Can’t You Hear Me Knocking” (“That’s about as close to jazz as we get,” Jagger joked at the song’s end). Richards then strapped on an acoustic guitar to stroll through Mississippi bluesman Fred McDowell’s “You Gotta Move,” with Jagger stretching his mouth to enunciate every lyric. While the Stones have achieved a reputation for stadium spectacle – this is their first time playing North American stadiums since “A Bigger Bang” – their presentation is relatively clean in his enormity. Full-length vertical video screens flanked the stage, while a horizontal screen behind the unflappable Watts, Georgia-strong keyboardist Chuck Leavell, rugged bassist Darryl Jones and the brass section of Karl Denson, Tim Ries and Matt Clifford (also on keys), broadcast close-ups of the rockers’ with startling clarity. The first singe of fireworks came with “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” and atmospheric smoke billowed from the stage, shrouding the crowd in an eerie fog to match the sinister vibe of “Sympathy for the Devil.” It was all appropriately ahhhh-worthy, but really, the focus never strayed from the music and Jagger’s incomparable presence. The charismatic CEO of this organization is still sexy, even with his deeply lined face and toothpick physique (really, who else DOES move like Jagger?). Within minutes of taking the stage, he shed his layers of Vegas-lounge jacket and black satin shirt to race around in a form-fitting purple pullover that soon sported a hole from his jittery activity. Watching Jagger bounce on air, you get the feeling that he’s like the coolest of cats. He’s stealthy and confident and doesn’t make a sound when he moves. While Jagger’s voice was impressively robust throughout the two-hour concert, he provides so much visual stimulation that it’s easy to stop listening. His display during “Midnight Rambler” was epic Jagger when he stutter-stepped down the catwalk, boxing with an invisible opponent as he shimmied, pounced and thrust in a mesmerizing display of feral energy. His eternal foil, the shaggy guitar god Richards, looked like a human package of Skittles – red shirt, zebra-striped headband, teal sneakers – and presented himself with his usual delightful combination of mischievousness and surprising lucidity. “It’s good to see you guys!” Richards boomed as he took center stage for a hearty version of “Before They Make Me Run.” Then he chuckled. “It’s good to see anybody!” With a stellar supporting cast behind him – including ace backup singers Bernard Fowler and the underappreciated Lisa Fischer – Richards and buddy Wood ripped into “Happy.” Wood, a lighted cigarette dangling from his lips, sizzled on lap steel guitar as Richards strummed the neck of his instrument. If you didn’t know they were gazillionaire superstars, you’d think these two were a couple of brothers jamming in the basement. While fans will always relish the easy-to-sing, easy-to-air-guitar show closers “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” and “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction,” a Rolling Stones concert is epitomized by “Gimme Shelter” and “Sympathy for the Devil.” The dark, woozy songs – the former introduced by Fischer’s haunting vocals and the latter by Watts’ swinging groove peppered with Leavell’s bluesy piano – escalate with different styles of intensity. Fischer and Jagger vocally spar with gut-clenching anguish on “Shelter,” while they, along with Fowler, lead a call-and-response as the fade-out of “Devil” that would almost feel jaunty if it were attached to another song. But that’s the type of enigmatic potency that makes the band arguably the greatest in rock ‘n’ roll history. In our recent interview prior to Tuesday’s show, Leavell commented that Richards often says that The Rolling Stones don’t have an expiration date because there is no blueprint to follow. Realistically, this can’t last but so much longer. But, as history will one day attest, what this band is currently doing – and the level at which they’re it – is simply extraordinary.

See "Some Girls."* He's off and lost there, and in other songs (e.g. CYHMK) his walk is unusually out of sync with the music and his gestures half-hearted. (Compare the Columbus show videos.) Singing on "Sympathy" is off. He's having a bad night, while the band is in roaring style. I know how you feel. I was at Rich Stadium 8-8-75, and that show gets no respect though it was fabulous and memorable if you were there, and sounds good on the bootleg. But Mick doesn't look or sound well or centered at Atlanta. I'm more worried than critical. *Note that in the "Some Girls" lyrics, nobody seems to want to get effed all night at Atlanta. |

People have to stop dissecting every second of every song. You're lucky they change at least 3-4 songs a night. Let them take a chance every once in a while. You want note perfect, go see Fleetwood Mac and their 30 piece band.

Did Jagger at least roll his eyes when he missed the black-girls-wanna bit?
Anyone remember this? http://snltranscripts.jt.org/78/78tupdate.phtml Garrett Morris: [dignified, dripping with snooty condescension] Now, I'd like to speak about the subject of a certain Mick Jagger - of the Rolling Stones. ... And I'm going to talk about the song he sang -- a song in which he sings these very words: "Black girls - just want to have sex - all night long." ... Now, Mr. Jagger, there is only one question I want to ask you -- Jaggs. ... And you better have the answer, man, you better have the answer, since you have besmirched the character of black women. Therefore, here is my question, Jaggs. [pause, takes off eyeglasses, suddenly drops the pose, pleading] Where are all of these black broads, man? ... [huge cheers and applause] Hey, like, where ARE they, baby? You got any phone numbers for me, baby? ... Please send 'em to me. [puts glasses back on, dignified again] Thank you. ... [enthusiastic applause] |

The clarity of the sound system was simply outstanding as was the video/show. Sure, the 70s shows were great including the 75 Aud and Rich Stadium shows, but let's get real, the sound was not always great. The youtube critics would be bitching about Mick's vocals being off in 75 as well although many consider it to be one of the greatest tours.
The biggest difference over recent years is that Keef and Ronnie look sober and are playing their asses off. Makes me wonder what the last 30 years could have been. They are exceeding expectations and leaving all but the most depressed in awe. Take out another mortgage on the house and get to as many shows as possible. Y'all enjoy! |

Gawd I can't wait for Pittsburgh! Talked to a buddy of mine who has some pretty tight connections with Keith's camp and he told me that Keith is finally back to 100%. They claimed that Keith's fall was much more serious than the band let on and that Keith lost much of his chops, and only in the last year has he completely gotten his chops back to pre fall condition. I don't know of the validity of that claim, but judging by Keith's playing on this tour I tend to believe it.
