Google just showed me this article from an Austrian news outlet: https://www.oe24.at/leute/musik/rolling-stones-zuenden-den-tour-coundown-mit-fri...

It's basically referring to people posting and discussing the rehearsal setlists as "insiders" lol so idk how seriously to take this because they clearly got all their info from FB and IORR and maybe also from here Grin

But it also says that apparently next year they're coming back to Europe!

I listened to the Stones performing Drift Away about a week ago. I've heard that Mick says that the tape drags somewhere in the song but I couldn't detect that myself and I'm usually sensitive to such audio glitches. I know it's a pipe dream, but I wish they'd perform it again this tour and release the recording.

Before heading to the US in 26 days to attend 4 Stones shows, I'll be seeing one of my favourite younger modern-day bands, Pvris, live for the 3rd time next week...they got a new album out and I just saw the setlist from the first show of their tour last night: they played 24 songs in total and of those 10 out of 11 from the new album

This made me wonder why can't the Stones do that?! They totally could imo...I know they won't but what speaks against playing all 10 (or maybe at least 8) of the new songs that they rehearsed at every show? That still leaves enough space for the war horses

I just looked up the war horses they always play and those are:

Satisfaction
Start Me Up
Tumbling Dice
Street Fighting Man
Midnight Rambler
Jumpin Jack Flash
Honky Tonk Women
Paint it, Black
Sympathy for the Devil
Gimme Shelter
You Can't Always Get What You Want

Those are 11 songs...imo they can leave out YCAGWYW since they got SSOH now that would make 10 War Horses and 8 songs from the new album plus one more Keith song cause he got Tell Me Straight on the new one...(or they could just play 20 songs)

I'd MUCH rather get to hear as many new songs as possible and not IORR, LARS or Wild Horses (insert any other of those rotation songs) for the 5th time...

Thank god I escaped having to see the Ghost Hounds again, one time in Berlin was mkre than enough Lips Sealed

well granted they don't also choose them for NYC1 in the end, but the fact that this one is still to be announced let's me hope it's actually gonna be Gaga maybe Cheesy

Tbh except for Kaleo (whom I saw opening for the Stones in Munich in 2017) and the Pretty Reckless (whom I gonna see opening for AC/DC in July), I don't know any of those bands...Betty LaVette only from Steve's IG seeing how he produced her latest record...

All kinds of crazy texts Im getting about Panic opening up in Denver.
That's a downright double bill!!

I asked a couple of friends who are Panicheads about Stones covers that Panic plays.
Typical Stones covers are SFTD, JJF, DF, Happy, DDDDD(H), and Time Waits for No One.

Wouldnt it be crazy if Jagger came out for TWFNO?!?
It's never been played live by the Stones.

Oh I actually like that one! Yesterday I only looked into two other vids by them that I didn't enjoy that much but this one is good! And here is one I also like where the guy is singing more:

Friends (panicheads) told me the same thing today...even straight-up Panic tkts have gone up they said...
I had a (very good friends) couple ask me if I would consider going to DEN with them....on the spur of the moment...
Never been...legal weed...I would do it at the last minute.

So what do y'all think about the new stage? I actually really like it, sure it's simple compared to what they put up in the 90s e.g. but it's so much better than the Sixty stage, the screens are huge and seem to be really great quality

almost makes me wish we didn't wanna be in the pit for every show we are attending, so we could see more of the stage LOL but only almost^^

Maybe that's why Seattle is getting Joe Bonamassa? It seems to be a really slow seelling show, you can get all-in tix on Tickpick for 29 dollars, insane...could this also be the reason fot it being the only show where TM doesn't allow re-sell tickets for pit bevause they already cannot get rid of all the others? I was just wondering because it's a bit curious that there are re-sale pit tickets for every show on TM except Seattle...I read on IORR that someone wasn't even allowed to put his ticket on TM for resale because they can't get rid of them...this is insane, why are there so little Stones fans around this area? I mean Seattle is a rich region, right? People there shouldn't have too many problems with the ticket prices, I figure as compared to, let's say, maybe Denver or Glendale idk

Just a guess...but in my mind at least...SEA has a higher younger demographic.
All my under 40 friends appreciate my passion for the Stones...they like the Stones...they ask what shows Im going to this time, etc.
In other words, they are certainly in the know about what's going on due to their news feeds, I assume.
BUT, they really don't care about seeing a few 80 year olds playing songs they've heard a few hundred times over the years on the radio, TV, films, ads, etc.

It would be the equivalent of me being 40 in 2004 and going to see
the likes of (I had to wiki all this BTW) Bing Crosby, Perry Como, Dinah Shore...all whom were in the top 40 sixty years prior in 1944.
I might be off a bit in that comparison, but as they say here on these boards..."Dudes are old!"

I guess you got a pretty good point there about the age demographic, I mean if they aren't one of your fave bands, you also wouldn't pay that much money for at least halfway decent seats...not all younger fans feel like they're born in the wrong generation after all (as my friends and I do LOL) but probably go see younger artists instead of wanting to see the Stones...this doesn't mean I don't also love younger artists like e.g. the Struts or Måneskin or Brigitte Calls Me Baby, but in general I just love 60s-80s music altho I only was born in the 90s Grin

But what I gathered in the silver pit in Munich and in Golden circle at Hyde Park in 2022 (which were decent tickets for not TOO much money), there definitely were loads of 20-30 yos there who just wanted to see the Stones live once in their lives

So maybe if they had a bigger GA and not so many overpriced seats in the golden circle area, they would attract more younger people who tend to wanna have okay-ish spots in the standing area...but on the other hand, their main demographic is getting too old to stand all show I suppose
