I could not see if he played a Gretsch set or somethinge else, but I can say that Charlie`s drumset wasent in a good tune. There were no microphones for snare and toms, only for the bassdrum and cymbals. The show was a very powerfull fast set of Boogie Woogie for more than 2 a half hours. As I already wrote to Voodoo: I hope Charlie will tell Mick and keith about the atmosphare in this historical theater and the boys will use it for a clubgig on their nex tour.

I got those pics and some more yesterday via our friend Axel Schumacher but I am waiting for authorization to post them here from the author, Peter (don't remember his last name and I don't have the e-mail here)

So I will post them later or you can see them at his website http://rolling-stones-fan.de/images/boogie/charlie.jpg and there's more here http://www.bildmaschine.de/eventbilder/Charlie-Watts-Rolling-Stones-im-St-Pauli-...
