Still a Rolling Terrific Band!

dulwich — Fri, 22 Oct 2021 21:54:21 GMT

Just got my Stones fill went down to SoFi stadium in L.A. to see my main men The Stones.

Superb, Fantastic, Wonderful - I think I loved every minute blew me away . Stadium is huge - crowd was great - everything was mind blowing. Loved all the oldies Honky Tonk Women, Start Me Up and of course good old Satisfaction. They were great. Mick can still move! Missed Charlie.

Wore my 30 year old tour jacket with pride! yeah baby rock on Stones.

dulwich,

My rocker side is living vicariously through you. I'm delighted you enjoyed the Stones. Of course, I wish I had been in attendance, too, but "You Can't Always Get What You Want."

Fantastic!

@dulwich - I'm jealous! I live an hour south of DC and they couldn't reschedule FEDEX field for the make-up concert. I've been watching the you tube videos from the various cities. It's not the same without Charile and the singer that sings Gimme Shelter can't hold a candle to Lisa Fischer. Glad you got to go.

Lucky you!

Did they ever do a bad song? I heard "Under My Thumb" the other day and had to laugh. So Mick to say such a thing.

He and Jerry Hall were my favorite couple....each so exotic!

Been to see the Stones, I think 5 times now since I was 22. A lot of years later I would still see them again. Hands down the best show you will ever see. And, you're NEVER too old!

I saw the Stones many times when they first came to America. I paid seven dollars and fifty cents for tickets at a small theater at 14th St. at Manhattan, first three rows. I also saw them at Carnegie Hall, what a thrill. I loved Brian Jones who passed at such a young age like so many other rockers. The Stones first album had a lot of blues songs and being a blues lover, I appreciated them immediately. Great memories of a band who is a legend and still going strong.

I give the Stones credit for giving Muddy Waters, Buddy Guy and Howlin' Wolf a broad audience. These were some of the pioneers of blues and the Stones loved their music.

I am glad you enjoyed the concert, Dulwich, we're all still rocking with them and that is a great feeling!!!!!!

It has been quite a few years since I have seen the Stones. @dulwich Does Mick still move like he is 20? I have never seen anyone make the moves that he can.

I was there. Fantastic show. Saw them in 1969 at Madison Square Gardens with Ike and Tina as the opening act. Also saw them at The Steel Wheels at The Coliseum in Los Angeles. Opening act was Guns and Roses.

@dulwich I'm glad you went & had fun!

I was trying so hard to get BTS tickets for SoFi Stadium next month & they kept trying to sell me Rolling Stones tickets.

Every time I got an error on my tickets, it seems like I would get a message the Stones tickets could be mine.

I felt like I was being steered to a more appropriate age group!

@layla2450 I saw them too with Guns & Roses - love Guns & Roses - don't think I have missed any of their tours - saw them first in London at a pub before they could get booked anywhere same with a David Bowie- those were the days!

I attended my first Rolling Stones concert in 1966 held at my high school stadium! Tickets were $3-$5. Opening acts were the McCoys (Hang on Sloopy) and the Standells (Muddy Water). Still a fan after all these years and have attended many of their concerts throughout the years. I would love to see them again!

@SharkE I agree with your comment.

My idea of Heaven is to be in the middle of the fans, hands in the air and a bopping away to the music and singing my bl--dy head off. DH hates it likes to sit in a seat with no one standing in front of him lol - that is why he is always back stage and I am in the crowd! now with my grandkids lol.

@dulwich Happy for you!! I am a huge Stones fan and have told my story before on here. They were at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro Ma June 2019 and I was there (along with my kids and my siblings). I believe this may be the same tour continued, of course interrupted by Covid. That was my 13th time and Yes Mick still has it for sure! My kids names are Angie and Keith!!!! So sad for Charlie, I'll need therapy when Mick goes
