But is that the same set list layout used by the band? Have they changed the design that they have used for many, many years? (the ones showing keys and tempos etc.)

Stop complaining. We Europeans have never been spoiled with long set lists. 21 songs were usual on the Bridges to Babylon and No Security tours, 19 songs were the norm for arena and stadium shows on the Licks tour. Only one show in Europe had more than 20 songs on the Bigger Bang tour. At their age I think a set of 22 songs is impressive.

I am very pleased with the set lists on this tour. Actually I think it's unreal that they still perform at this level, remembering the last tour six years ago when they seem to be a bit tired. They played only 19 songs at most of the shows. I would probably have laughed at you if you had told me back in 2007 that the Stones would tour again six years later performing longer shows (23 songs) with

In this magazine, that solo is rated as the 8th worst guitar solo ever. "Keith Richards says he never understood why Mick Taylor left the Rolling Stones, but this horrendous, lurching and sputtering solo might have had something to do with his exit. Was Taylor angry with Richards for ruining an otherwise decent cover of a Motown classic? Was he too proud to beg to play the solo himsel

When I remember how tired they seemed to be at some shows in Europe back in 2007, I think it's quite impressive if they keep playing 23 songs every night with that tight tour schedule. I don't know what happened, but somehow the Stones seems to be in better shape.

"Welcome to Sky Valley" by Kyuss is IMO the best Stoner Rock album ever. The opening track Gardenia is the very definition of the genre. Queens of the Stone Age's debut album should also be played LOUD. So many great tracks: Regular John, Avon, If Only, Mexicola, Give the Mule What he Wants, You Can't Quit Me Baby. And check out the early Desert Sessions (Vol 1&2 and Vol 3&a

Quotetriceratops Jagger wrote some very clever lyrics but that was long ago when he was up and coming and got into "situations". When he could write about young love and its ups and downs. How he used to put down female partners. Once he got rich he was able to insulate himself and became boring. He hobnobbed more with other rich people and the English aristocracy, not exactly a formula
