Rolling Stones...

[Justiceforcedave]

I suppose it comes down to if you're a Rolling Stones are a half good or half bad kind of person

[MEGABOWL]

Can't really see how they could do that any better. Are we generally now confident that they might be quite good at Glasto? Most of the footage I've seen for the current tour has been impressive in my opinion.

They seem to have improved as it's gone on.

For some reason I particularly like watching 'Beast of Burden', you know, the one with Katy Perry. Hard to say why.

Carrie Underwood at Glasto?

[MichaelsBeard]

Just saw this. Sounds super!

That's not recent though. It's from Madison Square Garden on the 40 Licks tour in 2003.

[ThomThomDrum]

Who's Carrie Underwood?

if you dont know you dont want to know!

[Matt42]

Who's Carrie Underwood?

It's not uncommon you've never heard of her.

She's an individual who believes she makes 'country music' which is never a good thing.

She's also kept her career entirely in america, because that's the only place in the world where her shit is sold, good tactic.

Ah! Shit.

Found one from Toronto on Saturday night. Sounds great.

They also played Emotional Rescue which is a disaster

Taj Mahal is tonight's guest. He would be my perfect choice at Glasto, as long as he got to play his own set as well.

Apparently it was a good one. No tour debuts, second outings for Wild Horses and Rocks Off and a cover of Six Day on the Road. And Emotional Rescue is still in.

Kinda hard to read the tea leaves on *exactly* what'll be in and out by the time they're back in the UK, but most of the setlist probably won't shift too much.

[The Nal]

Good setlist. and yes, we need Taj back at Glasto.

And while we're talking about Stones collaborators, get in Ry Cooder too.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Chicago, innit. I'd bet on Buddy Guy one night as well.

[Wooderson]

I've zero interest in this "special guest" routine from the Stones. Its a useless distraction. I hope theres noone with them at the G bar Mick Taylor.

bringing some woman or other on for gimme shelter should be sufficient

I've got a bad feeling though they'll go the completely opposite way and bring on several special guests. And they'll compound the misery by trying to appear to be "down with the kids" by inviting dizzee rascal, professor green, etc on

Unless it's a way of getting some excellent additions to the line up (as would be the case if we got Taj playing a full set because he is going to guest with The Stones). Of course, if Mick decides he'd like Bonnie Tyler to sing Gimme Shelter then mythical-cloud-fairy help us all!

[CaledonianGonzo]

I'm not really fussed either way, but it's possible that they'll shoot for the moon and maybe try to get someone like Springsteen or Macca to guest with them.

[Filthy]

I wanna be your man with Macca would be quite something

STarts strong, ends strong. Would do well, I reckon

Oh God. You're right aren't you?

Macca a possibility. Bruce is playing Paris that night.

[Mud Dweller]

Macca and The Stones at Glastonbury - now that would be magical

He was with them a few weeks back in LA during rehearsals so not as unrealistic as people think

[UEF]

Although their version of the song sounds wildly different to the Beatles original

[Wooderson]

Lisa Fischer is on tour with them and can holler with the best of 'em.

"Some woman or other" not your best work on here btw squire.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Being realistic, my best guess is that they'll breach tour protocol so far and bring on Florence for Gimme Shelter - and then summon up Sir Bobby of Womack for a trot through It's All Over Now, ticking both the 'popular with the youth' and the 'well-respected senior statesman' boxes.
