I saw the stones 30 years ago in the dome….they were 50 and sounded horrible….I can’t imagine at 80 years old they sound any better……

Steel Wheels? I was there.

The sound in the Dome is always terrible.

The show is about, well, showmanship. Mick ripped it on the harp that night. And watching him chicken dance over to a huge blowup doll and hump it; well, that was something to see.

The octogenarian Stones last night were amazing for their age.. As a band, I thought they were a hair ragged. They weren’t nearly as tight as Springsteen’s band (73 and 74 year olds).

Mick ran out of breath. Keith’s fingers, badly twisted from arthritis, couldn’t always find the notes.

But they were the fricking Stones at JazzFest rocking a huge crowd.

Satisfaction, my brother.
