Thanks for a great review Gazza. Last time they played It's All Over Now is 2007 btw. Nijmegen was the place I'm sure of because I was there. Not sure about other gigs. Anyway: great to hear the boys still got it. Now I just hope these 5 shows aren't their Last Waltz...would've loved to be there yesterday.



Yeah, they did it a few times in 2007. Including Paris, I think. Ive since realised that. Thanks

I read in one of the reviews that Taylor took a tiny break from shredding Midnight Rambler to plant a kiss on Keith's cheek.  Lovely moment, if true, and I'm going to pretend it's true regardless.

each time I watch that clip I keep hoping my boy Mick T isnt going to topple over. Jesus. Not graceful on his feet. Better when he used to not move around.

Looks like he was having fun though. Glad he didnt take a tumbler.

The guy was ecstatic about being on that stage. Can you blame him?!

He was trying to jump around like Ronnie. He looked pretty silly. Especially at his size.

I love his playing. Just play.

I won't disagree that he looked silly. But I don't think he was trying to mimic Ronnie; I think it was just irrepressible, can't-believe-I'm-back-here giddiness. The more I watch this clip, the more I hear of him, and the better it gets. That's always the way it is with his playing. He flings out so many licks, fills, lines that you have to let them settle... As I said earlier, he threw out some clams, too. But he was letting it all hang out there!

Are you guys sure he isn't just shouting something to Keith? It looks as though Keith doesn't hear him first time so he shouts in his ear again

Wow!

i'm not going to criticize Taylor at all, his playing or presence... I want to hear from those in attendance or a good mix before I judge too much, but what I heard was amazing. I almost cried... Nothing would be cooler than to not only keep him on for the USa shows, but throw in more of his era stuff, like Sway and CYHMK... What a set that would be along with Rambler... I think 90% of us would orgasm, shit and have a life ending heart attack... and we would do it it again and pay gladly... so enjoy or shut the fuck up, as my old grandpop would say!!!

that youtube mix isn't a good base to judge from, all I'm saying.. SV said it sounded like Brussels, and she was there... I trust that more than an unmixed youtube clip, those are so distorted and there's no instrument seperation, i'm telling it like it is too... I think we will know for sure come PPV night!

Guy was having some fun. Most animated he's ever been in his career. Thought his playing was pretty solid. Remember this is 2012 and they're in their 60's and sober. This isn't 72 in a belladonic haze. Blank Frigging Stare

Sunday was my FIRST EVER Stones concert! And what a concert, I'm still euphoric at how good it was and can't wait for next year! I was in Block 411, Row T and was dreading the seat but the sound was fanastic and the view was very good, they were small but not tiny specs.
2 highlights for me were Keith's solo during 'Going Down', the man's still got it and Wyman's appearance, yes he didn't add anything superbly different to Darryl but what was important was that he was there and by the looks of it on the screen he was actually enjoying himself. He slotted in, still as ever, and played what needed to be played, thats why he is a fantastic bass player!!

Just sharing my thoughts on an amazing night, I can see why you guys really are hooked on Stones concerts and I can't wait to do it again. Its a shame that 2012/13 are the only chances I'll have of seeing them!

Rambler ! OMG !

thanks again !
Stones fans are the best fans cos everyone knows we follow the greatest rock n roll band in the world.

Hi
Don't know if you've done it already, I took the setlist from the show at the O2 and for each song I put a link to a video (sometimes 2 or 3)
so that people can have a good look of what happened in London
Only a couple of songs are missing...

Rolling Stones face £200,000 fine for gig over-running


...


THE Stones face a whopping £200,000 fine because their historic 50th anniversary gig at London’s O2 was 35 minutes too long.


They were meant to finish at 10.30pm on Sunday — but defied local council rules by continuing to play encores for their cheering fans until 11.05.

The band’s agent Bernard Doherty revealed yesterday: “It means a big fine — but the guys just do their thing.

“There wasn’t a janitor standing there, jangling his keys, saying. ‘I want to go home’.”

The huge fine is unlikely to trouble Mick Jagger and his chums.

They were set to net £15.6million even before a fifth concert was added to the four already announced.

Fellow legends Bruce Springsteen and Sir Paul McCartney paid a different penalty in July when their Hard Rock Calling concert in London’s Hyde Park over-ran. Their mics were cut off.

Gig was a total blur for Ronnie

RONNIE Wood couldn’t see any of the tribute banners from his fans at Sunday night’s gig — because he refuses to wear his GLASSES onstage.

The short-sighted guitarist can’t see the crowds — and relies on his bandmates to tell him what’s going on.

Ronnie, 65, said: “If I haven’t got my glasses on I can only see the first couple of rows.

“It was quite funny the other day with the signs people hold up.

“I went up to Mick and said, ‘What does it say on that sign there?’

“And he went, ‘I think it says you are rubbish’.”
