That's it? 3 suggestions from only one Stones fan? Those 3 are the best of the best?

What do you mean by this:
"Now, unfortunately, I guess , for my next shows I have to get into the Ronnie Woods era."
If you want to be in a tribute band, then just play the @#$%& songs and get used to the really old, tired and used-up groupies reliving their past. Hope you have the energy for the long haul.

Maybe he is the Chuck in the group and suddenly realised that he would be buried in work with songs from the Ronnie era...

Who said anything about note for note?I know what I'm doing. Yes I'll be enjoying myself but you know what ? I think the audience will be too.
And if we can get to 80% of the crescendo of JJF and SFM which ends the Brussels show then the audience will be going mad.
So thanks for your mean spirited advice but I for one don't want it or need it.
Thanks for nothing.

What happened to the Brian era with the stench of young girls
urine ...getting chased and losin' large chucks of ya hair....YEAH that's the real stuff and ya only gotta play for like 25 mins...

To my mind there is a difference between the song writing of Jagger/Richards and Ronnie Wood as a Rolling Stone. There are many many many Jagger/Richards songs that I love and want to play. I am trying to avoid a mish mash of Stones numbers and so am I hopeful about being able to present specific concerts in their entirety. I may not be able to avoid presenting a greatest hits segment.Quote

I think you misunderstood his post completely. And your own post about the current lineup, that made the best-selling album in the band's history, baffled me a bit. You don't like playing Ronnie era-songs like Miss You, Beast Of Burden, She's So Cold and Start Me Up?

The band lost so much with the departure of MT. Keef & Ronnie had to invent " guitar weaving " in order to cover up the fact that neither one of them could impact a song like MT did.
Again thanks for the contribution.

The definitive Stones Tribute Band should be able to reproduce exactly the most notorious Stones' screw up on stage. That should be written on their set list with a reference for every song to the original version - date and city - so the connoisseurs would very pleased.
I have a friend who plays guitar, he does that quite well, I mean on purpose. He reproduces a mistake from a bootleg "at the request"
