    I was holding out hope that maybe Gwen might surprise me and do a good job, but she sounded like shit, had no chemistry at all with the band, forgot words, etc.

    I'm still trying to figure out what the hell she was doing there. Was Windows Phone sponsoring the show or something?

    Yea, she butchered it.

    I checked out the set list from when i saw them in December and they played 21 songs last night, that they played then.

    I think there needs to be a new rule, no guests perform on songs from the Taylor era, unless Taylor is on stage also. You have Gwen Stefani up there on Wild Horses, OK fine, meanwhile a band member who actually played on the song is sitting on his ass backstage watching Conan, chomping at the bit to play.

    I don't know if Jagger (who I assume is behind all this, as Keith and Ronnie went on record several times about expanding his role) is trying to torture this guy or what. Dragging him around like a piece of equipment to play one song a night, seeming to intentionally snub him every chance they get. Something somebody said over on IORR cracked my ass up, but then I realized, it could very likely happen. Since Time Waits For No One is one of Taylor's few writing credits, and many consider it a definitive Taylor song for some nice guitar work (I'm not that big of a fan but it's OK), people have been constantly begging for them to play it. Somebody said "It would be a larf if they played it with Ronnie", I just thought it was funny, a hilarious (in theory) dick move. But then it dawned on me, they probably will do just that.

    I wonder what they're going to be doing with Tom?

    Yea, so far, but will they keep it up? MIGHT be the same old-same old from here on out? Could be if One More Shot is next.

    I'm sure it probably will be, or at least not too many more surprises. But the surprises already for this show I really like. Tom Waits on Little Red Rooster is great, and All Down The Line (would have preferred Taylor on it, but Woody is pretty good at it), Emotional Rescue for the second time ever. Not bad. And I love Live With Me and Dead Flowers. Holding out hope for a flip of the script on Taylor and him doing a different song, or more than one, but I'm not holding out too much hope.

    3. Live With Me
    4. Paint It, Black
    5. Gimme Shelter

    7. Dead Flowers
    8. Emotional Rescue

    Well, just one song, Midnight Rambler again, for Taylor. What a joke. Dude didn't even play on the original. Hopefully they'll get that straightened out sooner of later.

    Anyway, here's Tom on Little Red Rooster.

    At least he got a Warriors jersey out of the deal. They're going to have to use him more or it will be a fiasco. The fans are getting really fed up, except the Woody lovers (apparently some people think you have to choose a side, you can't like both), and many people bought tickets expecting to see Taylor. And see him in a larger role, as they teased us he would be.

    I just hope there's a reasonable explanation, and not just Jagger being a douche, like maybe Taylor doesn't feel good (he does have health problems) or nervous getting back on the big stage.

    likely buddy guy in Chicago doing "Champaign and Reefer"
    There's Pearl Jam, The Rolling Stones, Chuck Berry, Robert Johnson......and then everybody else.

    You'd think so, but these guests have been all over the place. At this point they could bring out "Munch's Make Believe Band" and I wouldn't bat an eye.

    Helen Henny can duet on Gimme Shelter.

    hopefully, the Gwen Stefani disaster will deter them from this and just put those two "guest songs" after Rambler and keep MT out there for Sway/Knocking/Street Fighting Man/Love In Vain/etc.
