These guys still know how to rock.

Mrs.E and I went to see them a couple of years ago at the beginning
of the
"Licks" tour at the Fleet Center in Boston. It was horrible
because
of the
disgusting sound system at the Center.

This performance was actually better, sound-wise.

You think?

The garage band down the block is tighter than the Stones were
tonight.
How the H do you flub up "Satisfaction" after 40 years? You could
see
a
couple of the guys were really frustrated- I thought the bass player
was going to climb right up into the drummer's lap for a while there
as
they struggled to get their licks together. Lot's of unhappy glances
exchanged every time somebody screwed something up. They were
literally
"jamming" instead of performing. Very disappointing show.

My suggestion, fewer drugs and less booze before a performance- and
more rehearsals.

Yes sir...I don't know how the Stones justify their outrageous fees.
Have to admit, I've never seen them live...(my son wouldn't let me go
along with him & his buddies when they played the Maritimes last
summer)
but age & lifestyle is really creeping up on these guys.
I like to hear them the way they sounded in the 60s.
Now I don't think they're a reasonable facsimile of a rock band.

I agree. I thought they stunk last night. Maybe that is because I
generally never cared for them.

My wife and I did get a kick seeing all the teenyboppers scream and
jump
about over them......a bunch of 60 some year old drugged out has-beens
who are old enough to be their grandfathers.

I thought they sounded pretty bad as well, and the entire production
seemed pretty lame, compared to the last couple of years

I wonder, too, if part of the problem is the simple fact that it's a
half
time show. No accurate way to do a sound check, since the presence of a
crowd totally alters the dynamics of any stadium. And, the performance
is
so short that by the time the band and technicians warm up, it's over.

That hasn't seemed to be a problem in the last few years.

The Rolling Stones were not lip syncing. They were actually performing
live. BIG difference.

Time out. TIME OUT! Are you suggesting that when we only see Britney Spears
singing, but we hear 8 voices singing harmony, those other voices aren't
really coming out of her face at the performance? :-)
