Stones set-list

[brandycoke]

A lot of stuff to choose from.

But what would be your ideal Stones set-list ?

A nice round 20.

Strangely enough,while compiling my list ,and for one of the greatest rock 'n' roll bands ever, i realised that they do an awful lot of outstanding ballads.

I'd be all over this.

Gimmie Shelter

Love In vain

Little T & A

Streets of love

Angie

Before they make me run

Beast of burden

Sympathy for the devil

No use in crying

Only rock 'n' roll

Tumbling dice

Happy

You can't always get what you want

Wild horses

Honky tonk women

Just my imagination

Dead flowers

She was hot

Before they make me run

Waiting on a friend

[General Lee]

Lotta hits missing there!

[brandycoke]

Its not about hits, its about what you'd like to hear .

[General Lee]

Fair enough, but not being a huge fan, for me it's the hits.

[brandycoke]

Yes, i get that too.

But i think they've released near 30 albums , so the hits are a very small proportion of of that, and for my part, not what make them a great band.

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

Realistically I want something like this:

Start Me Up

Jumpin' Jack Flash

Get Off of My Cloud

Street Fighting Man

Live With Me

Paint it Black

Ain't Too Proud To Beg

Undercover of the Night

Salt of the Earth

Happy

Midnight Rambler

Gimme Shelter

Angie

Miss You

Beast of Burden

Honky Tonk Woman

It's Only Rock & Roll But I like It

Wild Horses

Loving Cup

You Got Me Rocking

Sympathy for the Devil

It's All Over Now

You Can't Always Get What You Want

Under My Thumb

Satisfaction

Angie...that is all we need!

[Wooderson]

Brown Sugar and Satisfaction are certainties.

They should walk out onto that Pyramid and let "Can't You Hear Me Knockin" rip.

Would also be chuffed to hear "Loving Cup", "Moonlight Mile" and "You Got the Silver" also a curveball like "2000 Light Years".

[brandycoke]

Kinda hope they don't play Brown Sugar, I find it annoying, certainly not one of their best.

[FunkyDenz]

I really want to hear Harlem Shuffle (I know it's not really a Stones song, but their cover version was shit hot, and they started as a covers band, (inc the likes of Satisfaction).)

[Frankly Mr Shankly]

I agree 100%, though i probably wouldn't have been quite as diplomatic as you on that one

Brown Sugar's the greatest rock'n'roll 45 ever released - and the fact that it's bolted on to be played makes me kinda giddy.

I'm actually hoping they keep the album tracks to a minimum and bring out more of the sixties singalong singles - Under My Thumb, Let's Spend The Night Together, The Last Time, Little Red Rooster, It's All Over Now. In this context, anything released post-1981 can do one. They played Slipping Away at the IOW, and I think it's fair to say that's what happened to the attention of a large chunk of the crowd.

[Big Vern]

Hopefully as it isnt a Stones gig and therefore there is likely to be a lot of tick box and curious people there, they will play a greatest hits set and not just songs for the Stones fans

Therefore i would like purely the well known songs for the casual fan ie paint it black, sympathy for the devil, start me up, angie, doom and gloom, gimme shelter, cant always get what you want etc etc etc

Whoever mentioned Harlem Shuffle YES YES YES !!! Cracking version would love to hear that.

Fade away would be good.

I quite like 'love is strong' from the 90's and the new one 'Doom and Gloom'.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Best gig ever?

;D

[abdoujaparov]

An Exile tour was mooted a few years back when they did the deluxe re-issue, but I think Jagger vetoed it.

But then he's never been shy of expressing his general bafflement that Exile's as popular as it is.

[CaledonianGonzo]

A lot of my favourite tracks on Exile are all Mick - Let It Loose, Shine A Light, Loving Cup, etc.

[Guest]

Was their IOW gig that bad? I'm beginning to feel I'm missed out by not being there

Do they ever play 19th Nervous Breakdown these days? Also it would be nice if Marianne Faithful made an appearance (I think she still sings doesn't she?). 'As Tears Go By' maybe.
