I'm quite impressed here actually. Nice to wake up to this. Not perfect, but absolutely within my tolerances and I know its an overused thing, but good sound would help. One thing that I like is that the guitars keep going throughout; no laying out while I pose or mess with my cigarette. All in all, I'm glad they gave it a shot and they should keep working on this and No Expectations, IMO.

Quotestonesrule Hanns, truly terrifies me to think what may lurk in your record collection. Putting Waits in the same category as Bo Diddley and Solomon Burke is sacrilege. Stones would be better off with no more extraneous guest stars...just my opinion. I think you're probably of a different mindset to me, but I do agree that to mention Solomon Burke and Bo Diddley in the same category

Quoteoldkr when has everything about opening night not sucked? OLDKRI've seen two openers (RFK 1994 and Oakland 1999) and both were absolutely fantastic. You're always posting some miserable old lady nonsense. If the Stones and the Stones experience are such a drag for you, why don't you go back to the nursing home and leave it alone.

RE:Any of you who are having no luck. I got $85's to both nights with my cousin helping out from Sacramento. I'm still in queue myself, but he had no problems getting through using my info, so if you've got any family or friends far away from Philly, maybe reaching out to them might get it done for you.

I'm in for both shows @ $85, but only because my cousin hooked me up from his computer in California. I live 15 miles from the Wells Fargo and am STILL in queue! WTH?! Hoping for 2 more to the 23rd.

QuoteThey talk Steelers in Philly? Damn they must truly hate Vick. That garbage is like talking Niners in Oakland... You guys are screwy out there... Not realy a similar situation. As a long time Northern California resident, I can tell you the Steelers- Eagles dynamic bears no relation to Niners-Raiders crazieness. That would be more Giants-Eagles. The Giants are 90 minutes away; the Steel

Get stuffed AB. Philly is THE best Stones city in the US, with a long history of memorable shows (not all great, but memorable for sure). GREAT PEOPLE, fantastic food and a bar in center city deadicated to Steelers games and fans every gameday. I'll be at all three shows and welcome someone to talk Steelers with, so come on over ChrisO!

I'd like to throw my opinion's hat into the ring on this one.

I've got Love it it Death blaring right now and a thought just occurred to me: I really enjoy the MC5 (saw them a few years back when they had Evan Da

How about various solo offerings? A few by the Barbarians line up, a few with the Winos, acouple of MTaylor tunes? This would also be a much better spot for any guests they might want to work with.

Belated best wishes Chris. We have a bit of history actually. I voted for your daughter (?) in a contest for Quest Adventures (could be off by a detail as it was a minute ago) and then got into the debate on Facebook about the McDonald's mural getting covered over. Loved your books (Spyder Lockhart was great as well as the Ronnie Wood in the closet with Rod story). Keep up the great work!

I'm a big fan of all these guys and really hope it goes off well.

At the Capitol Theatre they have nothing between 11/28 with the Moody Blues and 12/07 with Toots and the Matals for Toot's 70th. They just did $2 million renovation of lights and sound according to the web site, so to me, it seems like a real possibility everything considered. Then, there is also the Toots/Keith connection, so who knows.

The Stones have been invited to the benefit at MSG, but they've also been invited to my house for Thanksgiving Dinner, so we shall see. Mick and Keith did come out for the 9-11 show and this would go a ways toward good PR for the ticket scam. Here's the link-

Yeah, jazzbass, I couldn't agree more. The Ronnie Wood I saw in AC was an absolute revelation. I couldn't believe how focused and organized he was. He was absolutely in control and completely at ease. Totally, The Man; a leader of men. Really shocking for me, as I was simply hoping he wouldn't be a mess like I've seen at more than a few Stones shows However, I do see the OP's point as the Roll
