I seen posts on this site bitchin' and moanin' about setlists , cancelled dates , postponed dates etc , etc .

I don't know about the rest of the IORR polllsters , but I'm 51 years old and so friggin' happy that the Stones are still around and still are very viable .

Appreciate what you've got before it's gone .

I'll be in Atlantic City tomorrow evening and feel priveleged to be there . It'll be my 2nd trip to the Jersey Shore in 3 weeks .My 7th show this tour . My low mileage discount on auto insurance is blown away now , but I don't care !!

Give them the greatest round of applause you can muster during the last dates on the ABB tour .

Luck, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder...yes, we are lucky that the Stones are still around, and playing pretty well, but, some of the circumstances surrounding the end of this tour, have been pretty attrocious...I have been told I had tickets to the Beacon, but didnt, others, that did have tickets, got shafted, as they flew in from parts unknown, only to have the show postponed....again, yes, its groovy, that we have the Stones, but I am bagging Atlantic City and the $450 dollar seats...instead I will see Hot Tuna for $25 dollars in an intimate club in Alexandria, Virginia.....

On with the show....

nYou're spot on Boston! Wouldn't it be kinda cool if the feeble old Beatles, Raggedy Elvis, Old Man Hendrix and others were still around to share their senior moments with us in concert?

Some people have nothing better to do on this board than go against the grain and be antagonistic... I believe the official term is "Oppositarian"

Amen to that post. We are more than lucky....

When Bowie sang "1984" in 1974, that seemed impossibly far away.

2001? Science-fiction!

No one would have ever imagined back in the '70s that we'd have the Rolling Stones--functional--still playing and touring in the Year of Our Lord 2006.

ENJOY!
