Mick's voice was iffy in spots, particularly "Rocks Off," but he has enough recovery time between shows now and his physicality and showmanship seemed unimpeded.
Keith seemed to be having a great night as well, but man, what the fuck happened with "Sympathy"? He seems to have no interest at all in playing the solo anymore. It was barely there except for a few rudimentary phrases; I won't reignite the "Brown Sugar" debate, but they dropped the wrong warhorse this tour. Don't mean to be a downer, but I think you're spot on about the shows being bumpy. Been reading a lot of positive reviews, but apart from a few exceptions, the clips I've heard so far have sounded really dodgy. The best parts apart from the background vocals, horns, and keyboards, have been Steve Jordan and Ronnie. Mick has always been the best at what he does, and still is, but his voice has seemed off a few times, and Keith, it's better not to pile on regarding his playing but that solo on Sad Sad Sad was some of the worst I have ever heard him. Nah, so far the Tampa and Dallas shows seem to aberrations on what has otherwise been a very consistently strong tour. And Dallas's flaws were largely due to the uncomfortable weather situation, which probably exacerbated Keith's arthritis and couldn't have been easy on Ronnie, either. But just about every other show this tour has been excellent.
