Rolling Stones...

[pedmills]

it really would be very simple for them to put on a so-called legendary set wouldnt it when you look at all the songs they've rehersed and played this tour

They are bound to fuck it up though

Yep...why are bands so stupid?

[Midnight Man]

yeah those few songs between Gimme Shelter and Emotional Rescue (or Honky Tonk Women, depending on how you look at it) need to be chosen wisely or they could lose a lot of the crowd. best sticking with the likes of Wild Horses and other better known songs rather than album tracks / covers i'd have thought. though i guess it depends on who they've got as guests etc. from the first song after Gimme Shelter up until Honkey Tonk will be a lot of people's beer and bathroom breaks (if others have analysed the setlists as much as we have... which they probably haven't)

Unlikely! Amazing to think there will be people there without a clue what they're going to play

And Bitch. And Angie.

Angie is surely a must for Glastonbury/ Hyde Park - hope so anyway. Let it Bleed would be a dream there too...

someone needs to print this thread off and deliver it to Jagger's mansion immediately

ha, i know. i'll be standing there knowing exactly what's coming on next and expecting everybody else to be in the same boat. how i envy those who still have the element of surprise for this set

He's on record as saying he reads forums about the band, so it's not impossible that he's already on it.

[Wooderson]

I'm half hoping they do "Rescue" at Glasters. I want the panto to hid Widow-Tw*nky levels.

[Wooderson]

Tw*nkey gets censored on here?

Me too! Especially now it's shaping up to be decent.

Still, they might pull a surprise - Change 'Miss You' to 'Fix You' in homage to Glastonbury's house band, for instance.

oh really?

JAGGER YOU'RE A RUBBER FACED TIT AND BRIAN JONES WAS THE REAL TALENT

AND MILES BETTER LOOKING TOO

[Big Vern]

hopefully Fat Boy Slim will come on do the remixed version of Sympathy For The Devil

[CaledonianGonzo]

You might get a shock at the meet when Mike99 finally shows his face.

If they alter the setlist they could keep it panto free. Proper gig.

And if Mick is reading this - just fucking get over yourself and do Sweet Virginia, Loving Cup and get Ry Cooder out for Sister Morphine.

Please.

I want "Ron Cam" for Glasters.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Though, from a certain POV, Sweet Virginia is also a funny ha ha, camp-as-Christmas pastiche of a music that the Stones have little hope of rendering in an authentic manner.

Though obviously that's cobblers - it's a bobby dazzler of a tune.

Their entire career could be summed up like that. Little Red Rooster, Carol and Not Fade Away as a few of their first singles?

his kids go every year don't they? i'm sure they're on EFests...

Indeed - Miss You and Emotional Rescue are arguably just an extension of the same modus operandi.

I made that point to tonyblair several dozen pages back and I don't think he was buying it either.

[When Jokers Attack]

Zero chance but I want them to play Winter or Moonlight Mile. I only heard Winter for the first time last month and it's now one of my favourites.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Dunno if they've *ever* played either of them live, fella. Certainly not Winter, at any rate.

[eFestivals]

I'm half hoping they do "Rescue" at Glasters.

there'd be a half-reasonable chance of me staying to watch the full set if they included some more off of Rescue.

In which case.....

Pay some tax Mick, and no, Thatcher is not a frigging British hero.

[Wooderson]

We Love You, Jigsaw Puzzle, Let It Loose, Soul Survivor, Memo from Turner, Dirty Work.

Theres a craptonne of ace tracks theyve never given an airing.

The comedy value is gold.

Given Operation YewTree I wouldn't hold your breath for Summer Romance.
