Ronnie's setlists don't get prettier either...they used to be awesome when he did them.more sporadically but I feel now he is basicslly forced to do them cause people expect to be able to buy them and there's nothing worse for an artist's creativity as to be forced to deliver when you aren't even inspired that much, cause inspiration doesn't just come when you call for it...

Awesome close version of Rambler!

The first few shows don't serve as a fair comparison in Keith's case because he caught Covid right before tour start and was getting over it for the first 3-4 shows, that's why he only sang Little T&A then and his voice sounded fucked...first show where his voice sounded good again was Metlife 1 and at Metlife 2 (wjwre he finally felt well and confident enough to do TMS) and Boston he started to have his full energy back...he's been playing REALLY well all tour long except for the occassional bum on the SMU intro (and we all know he always needs a few shows to reallt get into it and warm up) but multiple people who went to the LA1 show and went to almost every show on this tour have pointed out that Keith seemed less energetic at LA1 and barely even moved, so this clearly isn't just my impression from the videos

As for Mick, I noticed the longer the tour has been going on, the more he has been preserving his energy which is smart of course and absolutely not a complaint, just an observation underlined by what friends who went to certain shows told me, in the beginning and middle of the tour he was still running more, now he is pacing himself better, which is totally legit to do at his age, cause of course he wants to deliver the best performance possible...but still my impression remains that 20 shows are a tad too much for them at the current stage...

Plus I noticed Ronnie seemed quite shaky when walking out during his introduction at LA1...and their final bows these days almost seem rehearsed, the entire band is lining up almost the exact same way every time and the only one walking a bit around the stage and waving is Mick, when comparing this to e.g. Vienna in 2022 where the entire band was utterly hyped and was jumping around and hugging at the end, you can clearly tell that the main 3 have slowed down by the end of a 2h show by now, quite understandably, and just want to get off stage asap
