BITCH...That was during IORR...prolly singing "But I Like It"

WHAT A SHOW!!!

I am not just saying that because I am part of this asylum called ROCKSOFF either!!

After calling me crying that he is lost (thank you mapquest), Tom finally arrives at my house all shooken up, I make him a cup of tea to settle his nerves. We finally get on the road...

25 minutes later we arrive at the hotel where 1/2 of SHIDOOBEE was stying at...also about a 30 second walk to the pre-show party at the Backyard Bistro. I made a few new friends...drank some beers and decided to take a disco nap after a nice dip in the pool.

ON TO THE SHOW!!!

We walk across the street to the show and find the Lucky Dip gate...in hindsight...it was weird...Tom and I were INSIDE the stadium (me with a beer in my hands and rum minis in my pocket) and STILL didnt have our tickets in hand...

So...the moment of truth...we open up the random emvelope and go to the map...I see the location and I think, "OMFG!!! We scored what is arguably the worst pair of seats possible!"
Absolute side of stage...upper level...and 2 rows from the very top. Tom starts to mutter something under his breath...I look at him and say lets go exchange these...we traded them in at customer assistance (not guest services)...

I claimed to have had a panic/anxiety attack due to the height and couldn't even make it up the stairs. I am talking to a good cop/bad cop pair of staduim attendants...the bad cop says, you need to see guest services to upgrade...the good cop say, "Wait, how many tickets are we talking?" I reply just "me and him"...she waves off the other woman and says "let me see you tickets", and gives us 2 new tickets...LOWER LEVEL...50 yd line...halfway down... (in the $350.00 section).

What a great set the band played. Jagger name checked NC State Wolfpack...Dook Blue Devils...and UNC Tarheels...Then a name check came out that I was very happy about...Jagger comments on the fact that the immediate area is called RTP...Research Triangle Park...(think Silicon Valley East) and that we are all smart here...I work in RTP for a cloud storage company, so I took the shot out personally.

At the start, Mick was not mic'd as well as he could have been, IMO...this was fixed (I think) mid way thru IORR once he was out on the catwalk.
The guitars were a tad on the tinny sound of the spectrum, BUT...this was good, for I think it helped the guitar to be heard clearly in a stadium.

Shine a Light was a great surprise...loose and with rhythm and lots of swing.
Out Of Control sounded awesome in that stadium.
Moonlight Mile ...tender and sweet, on a full moon night too !!
I was soooo happy to hear LSTNT and the conspicuous absence of D&G was a treat.
The Vegas horns all sounded great as did Lisa & Bernard. Lisa, however, could have been mic a bit better on GS.

After the show...Tom and I went and watched the motorcade file out from under the stadium with the cycle cops and we saw shadows wave at us from most vehicles!!
Tom said it best...if they would switch out 3 or 4 songs in the first half with surprises...the warhorses are welcome to stick around for the second half.

THANK YOU TOM...
GREAT TO SEE SAINT OF ME
GREAT TO MAKE NEW ACQUAINTANCES
GREAT TO BE HERE...
GREAT TO BE ANYWHERE!!

I sent a screenshot of today's Header to Nanky's lovely daughter; explaining the significance of being the photog of an RO Header.

Her reply "That's sooooooo cool".

Nanky, you did a good job with that one. Her Auntie LJ loves her dearly.

Another joy of being part of this community; getting to know the children of our Stonesian brethren. And for the most part, every one I've met is a gem.

" ..... Keith is just
nailing everything in his path and Mick is impossible not to watch.. Charlie just keeps it all together and Ronnie is just having a blast... what a blessing to see this band again.
I for one cannot imagine that they are thinking about "retiring" from the road... the crowd was at a frenzy from the first note and the band was firing on all cyclinders........ "

Yay for Tray! A virgin no more, and you never forget your first time!
So happy for Nanky & his daughter!
Great karma that TomL & PA ended up with decent seats!
Saint of Me ~ you do get around ~ how many shows for you this tour?
Speaking of Stones breatheren's kids, SaintofMe (Rob's) daughter and my son met in Nashville, and as it turns out they work right next door to each other and they are the same age. Small world.
Raleigh, it was a great show! Thanks to those who periscoped it (love this technology). Gone are the days of texting and posting setlists.

I wouldn't have minded Doom and Gloom, but this was better. Hell, I wouldn't have minded if they played Gomper, Indian Girl or Back to Zero. Okay, maybe I would have.

And I'm hoarse! I was singing to every song and screaming my ass off the entire night. I don't know how everyone on the board felt about seeing their first Stones show, but I'm still a bit in disbelief. I haven't come down from the high. Maybe, just maybe, I can do it a second time.

Yeah buddy - ain't that hoarseness grand!!!!!!

That's how you do it.
Hootin' and a hollerin'
Both

Glad you went and saw one hell of a show.
Took me about 2 weeks to get it out of my head first time I saw them, and ever since, I have never been able to resist seeing them live. It is magic.

Only true obsession I have.

The others I just have for fun!!

Hey everyone! I just joined to share with you my video on YouTube that I shot at the Raleigh show! I'm 38 years old and this was my first and probably only Stones show and it was pretty awesome! I thought I had a pretty good seat and I like to record a lot of video for the shows I go to so here's 25 minutes of most of the songs. Enjoy!
