The Rolling Stones Thread

I finally picked up Blue and Lonesome for 50% off. Really liking it. I know they recorded it in like 3 days or something but it's better than I expected. They can still kick it in the studio.

Update on the Stones fan board from an administrator who drops the hints:

” From the IORR news today: The Rolling Stones are working on a tour in North America lasting from May to July 2020, rumoured to be announced next week. Cities rumoured for shows are San Diego, St. Louis, Atlanta, Cleveland, Louisville, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Baltimore,
Nashville, Charlotte, Tampa and Atlanta, all USA, and Vancouver Canada.”

Some announcement rumored to be coming Feb 6.

Awesome. Baltimore for me, I assume it will be M&T.

Any Hot Rocks fans, here? If so, do you think it's okay as it is or should more of the More Hot Rock been included initially? I guess what I'm getting at is what would your ideal 1960's Rolling Stones Greatest Hits package look like?

Just listen to beggars and Let It Bleed. That's all you need from the 60s imo.

I love those two albums (and the next two). I still think, however, there are some great tunes prior to 1968, however.

I have a mix of the songs I like from their early era featuring the following from The London Years set:

Stoned
Heart Of Stone
Play With Fire
Time Is On My Side
(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction
Get Off My Cloud
19th Nervous Breakdown
Mother's Little Helper
Have You Seen Your Mother Baby (Standing In The Shadows)
Paint It, Black
Let's Spend The Night Together
Surprise, Surprise
Ruby Tuesday
She's A Rainbow
Memo From Turner (personal favorite!)
Honkey Tonk Women
Jumpin' Jack Flash

Here's everything else I have:

Beggar's Banquet
Let It Bleed
Sticky Fingers
Exile On Main St.
Goat's Head Soup
It's Only Rock N Roll
Black And Blue
Some Girls
Emotional Rescue
Tattoo You

Live Albums:

Get Yer Ya Ya's Out
Roundhouse/Leeds 1971 (Sticky Fingers Deluxe)
Brussel's Affair
LA Friday
Love You Live
Some Girls - Live In Texas
Hampton 1981
Live Licks

Love listening to the Stones! Growing up, my parents had Sticky Fingers and that was the first album of theirs I heard. Once I hit my early -mid 20's I wanted to dive into their albums and ended up loving a lot of them. I had another heavy Stones phase around 2014. Their music helped me out tremendously at a time when I really needed it.

My Favorite album is probably Exile, but I also really love Sticky Fingers, Beggar's, Some Girls, Black And Blue and Let It Bleed a ton.

mrussel1 · January 2020

Stones are the best.. You should check out Blue and Lonesome. My favorite is also Exile, but mostly because of the pure length, not that those are the best 20 songs they have. If you broke it into two albums, my favorite would probably be Let it Bleed.

My boss was in Jersey and ended up drinking beer with Bruce several years ago. He asked Bruce what he thought the best band of all time was, and Bruce said "the Stones". These guys were on their way to a Morrissey show, but due to PC culture, I won't share what Bruce said about Morrissey.

Be interesting to see if they tweak their pricing at all.
2019 they played mostly the bigger markets, Chicago, Toronto, DC, Boston, Philly, Houston, NY Denver Seattle, SF, LA , Phoenix and Miami. Just a couple of "smaller" markets, New Orleans and Jacksonville .

These rumored cities are largely the 2nd tier type markets so wonder if they can sell out at same prices as last year.

Billboards popping up all over today. Minneapolis has a lips logo on ice! Yessss!!!!! Hometown show!

chitty · February 2020

I have never seen them, not my favourite band, but I think I will have to go see these legends. After all they have to be close to being done. Just hope tickets are reasonable,

Saw a “Get What You Need” billboard today in Twin Cities.

Y’all get what ya need? I got two first row of top deck for $96 each for Minneapolis. I thought about spending a lot on them, but I’ve done that for every show I’ve seen them at and frankly, the way up top seats aren’t that much worse then the more expensive ones I’ve paid for in the past.

I went online and got access at about 1020. I actually passed because I was looking at Charlotte and I think I can get better tickets below face closer to show date. the best I saw were back GA pit for $96, which isn't bad at all.

They are killing a lot of us this year.(Though, i did get a RATM Ticket today) I wanted to see Roger Waters too but not spending over $200 , especially since i'm traveling for a few PJ shows.

Same with The Stones as i may skip this Tour.

The tough part with Roger and the Stones is that you never know if this is it.. I saw Roger on the last few tours and he's great, so I hate passing. I also scored RATM too... Plus 3 PJ, DMB.. And I plan on the Stones.. GnR and I expect an E Street tour as well. 2020 is quite the year.

ultrapig · February 2020

Just scored Lucky Dip tickets for Minneapolis. $92 total for the pair.

^^No doubt. Over the past few weeks my '20 concert budget has been a bit unhinged

That's why i was considering Waters & The Stones. I could be tempted at the last minute like i was the last time the Stones Toured, for both.

I'd like to see GNR but since they're playing Stadiums that makes my choice of not going very easy.
