Rolling Stones 2019 U.S. Summer Tour

Yeah it’s on one of the discs in the singles boxset 71-06, it might be on Tokyo Dome as well.

 

From what i have read you may not have been their type. (Lol)

 

Lucas Grabeel on Instagram: “One of many tonight... Probably. @therollingstones #nofiltertour @chuckyklapow thank you.”

Stewart Beck on Instagram: “Last minute trip to see The Stones w/ some woos... since we couldn’t make it happen in Chicago. #PassTheGood #92TheWoo #TheRollingStones…”

Couple crowd photos, given the attention on the subject for this particular show. None during the show.

 

Under My Thumb won the fan vote.

They also have played Let's Spend The Night Together and Sad Sad Sad again tonight.

 

Least exciting of the four?

 

It could be exciting if they dropped the cheesy arrangement. I always like the guitar-led 1981/82 version.

 

The Stones are FINALLY in NOLA!!

 

First US performance in 13 years for Thumb.

 

Hey Walrus (and also Black Elk per your post up above) ...I really appreciate the tips and tricks around purchasing tickets.
...everything I've read here makes lots of sense (including going to Santa Clara instead of San Jose - haha!)

I have a hunch I'm better off waiting till just before the show, and I'll educate myself on the purchasing process in the interim.

Thanks again,
Audiohound

PS: Can't wait to get the SATISFACTION of getting that ticket UNDER MY THUMB!
How cheesy, I know...guess I'm a bit giddy tonight in thinking that I might actually see the Stones in August.

 

Wish they would play the Altamont version of Under My Thumb.

 

One of the few things I truly liked about that tour (from someone who was born the month it started).

 

Not exactly a ghost town in the Superdome tonight. Check this video out from the 05:00 mark.



(Somebody was playing something pretty wrong on the guitar, but it worked out okay.)

 

No pyro!

 

No "Street Fighting Man" last night. We were robbed a song!

 

You mean start it, then stop it, then start it again?

 

8. I was shocked at how good they were.

 

I had a BLAST at the Stones concert in New Orleans last night. A couple of observations:

1) Given all the reports of gobs of unsold tickets, I thought we might be able to move down many rows or get upgraded. No dice, people came early and the crowd was big. Very few empty seats all the way to the rafters. Here's a short video of the crowd *before* the concert started, with people still streaming in:



2) We had a totally good time! The Stones were awesome, my wife couldn't believe that Mick could sing and move so well at 75, and especially coming off heart issues. And she admitted to a 'small crush' on Ronnie Wood, lol. A happy wife:

 

Anyone have photos of the merch booth this tour? Any posters or just t-shirts and stuff?

 

I don't have any photos, but as I recall there are city/show specific posters. I saw the NO one posted on the Stones twitter feed the other day.

 

There are lithographs and shirts for each venue/city:

No Filter 2019

 

Interesting how they have really moved away from anything not featuring the tongue logo in recent years, even down to album covers. Maybe they (correctly) assume people don't want to wear a T-shirt with a bunch of 75-year-olds on it, but the branding is getting a little one-note and unimaginative.

 

Some company/companies must have been called on to unload all the unsold tickets, because there was still plenty of inventory on TM until they took all the tickets offline!

 

The Chicago reviews page at iorr.org had some booth photos.

 

Here are a couple pics from New Orleans, unfortunately the broadest view is fuzziest:
