Got Jive If You Want It!

The concert last night was pretty cool. There was an article I'd read by some schmuck in the LA Times complaining that the Stones didn't play enough of their new album. Their setlists had been peppered with a generous dose of old hits and great album cuts, culminating with an amazing set on Sunday...
The set list
Jumping Jack Flash
It's Only Rock'n Roll
Live With Me
Tumbling Dice
Oh No Not You Again
Back Of My Hand
Dead Flowers
Midnight Rambler
All Down The Line

You Can't Always Get What You Want (encore)
Satisfaction (encore)
The Sunday crowd was treated to some real gems... "Dead Flowers," "Midnight Rambler," "All Down The Line," "Wild Horses," "It's Only Rock and Roll," and "Live With Me."
Though the set was fantastic, we traded these songs for..."Shattered," "She's So Cold," "Rough Justice," "Rain Fall Down," "It Won't Take Long," "Bitch," "As Tears Go By," and "Paint It Black."
The last three were amazing, and "As Tears Go By" hadn't been played in a long time, but "Shattered" and "She's So Cold," staples as they may be, fit into the crappy dance pop late seventies early eighties cannon that I'm not that big a fan of. THey weren't bad, just not my choice. "Bitch" and "Paint It Black" were very cool, but "Dead Flowers" and "All Down The Line" would've warmed my belly more.
We had beer and cheese burgers at Carney's pre-show. A fun time was had by all.
