Rolling Stones...

[LondonTom]

I don't get the fuss about Mick saying come see us again either... It made sense and was just a bit friendly stage banter, a good portion of the audience probably has never seen them at their own gigs. Loads of bands say similar, just a turn of phrase really.

Hardly going say "Orite, you've seen us once...don't bother again".

While we are talking about the Rolling Stones cashing in on playing Glastonbury...I am waiting on my Glas STON bury t-shirt to arrive,quite liked the design but they was sold out in man sizes when I discovered them at the merch stalls and the Rolling Stones have kindly put them on for sale on their site

[CaledonianGonzo]

I wanted one of those - but now I've seen the Hyde Park merch with the butterfly on it I think I might like that even more.

I'm getting quite excited about tomorrow now! Despite still feeling rough it will be nice to be clean and well slept this time around

I know it won't be a patch on Glasto but I can't wait to enjoy them with my boyfriend as well. And I'm confident they'll put on a good show - hopefully they're still riding high.

[Justiceforcedave]

Let us know what the sound is like.

Let us know what the sound is like.

I can tell you now that the sound will be shit! It always is at Hyde Park...

[Wooderson]

Nothing wrong with promoting the band is there? "If this is the first time you've seen the band - do come again alright?"

Not sure what the issue is? I thought it showed they've no plans to stop. Judging by their performance why would they? They may be all in their late 60s/70s but they played like men in their 20s.

Lol

Interviews with Jagger & Richards are on Absolute Radios Rolling Stones section (can be downloaded on podcast to). Both seem very happy with how it went

Loved the comment "if you haven't seen us before, come to some more of our shows!"

Mick, you absolute scumbag.

????????

Why would he say anything else?

[Gnomicide]

A few snaps from the show......

[EighteenSixty7]

Just watching the highlight show now, will watch the full Saturday one at a later time. Jagger is unbelievable as a frontman, had the crowd in the palm of his hand and seeing Richards and Wood just patrol around the stage was magnificent.

[WS_Jack_III]

I loved Midnight Rambler. And Can You Hear Me Knocking for that matter. It's the Stones, their roots are in blues music, you are always going to get at least one blues jam in there somewhere.

Better that than some soulless electronic shite.

Rambler is one my fave Stones songs and i've so many people moaning about it and saying it was the "low point" of the set. Don't understand that opinion to be honest. 2000 light years was the low point in an excellent set.

[WS_Jack_III]

Oh and when he said "do come and see us again"

I thought to myself "I would if tickets weren't £100"

[Comfy Bean]

Thanks Mac. That explains it. Just been watching it back and it all makes sense ( now ). TV obviously doesn`t do it justice but good to see close up how much they were enjoying it. What a night. Highlight of an amazing weekend. Hope all you lucky ones have a great time on Saturday.

you're not getting any better at this. maybe give it a rest eh?

please... no more.

bloody spammers.

Am I missing something here...... ? Posted about what the script was with the different screens for the Stones. Fella takes the time to explain. I thank him. Suggestions I give it a rest. Is it me ? Honestly confused.

[Gnomicide]

I think there were more posts from someone else that have now been deleted.

[markm69]

Me and the mrs both agreed that the bbc coverage last night did nothing

to project the atmosphere and the brilliance of The Stones.

Why, we couldn't work out, maybe the electricty running across the crowd

failed to venture itself into the fluffy boom sticks .

ha, yeah there was a spammer filling the thread with gibberish. Neil removed all the posts.

absolutely non of the above was directed at you.

[AiiShotTheDJ]

which is the same for any live event.

Driving home from Glastonbury, there were a couple of complete divs on Radio 1 playing highlights from the festival (which is why we were listening). The girl kept on saying how she had a better experience because she watched it on tele and made cocktails and had her bed and could have a bath while she was watching it. NO! you brain dead moron, you didn't 'experience' anything, you were an observer of what the beeb let you watch. Even then, what you saw was light years from what the punters saw, heard, and actually experienced

Oh my God, I was listening to this too and wanted to hurt the woman because she was continually bragging she was in the comfort of her own home but didn't have hot water so was 'kind of' experiencing it- ha, fucking ha. I watched the Stones back and thought how deadpan it looked which is nothing like how it was in reality. On a side note, waved my partner off at 8am today to go to the Hyde Park show with his Dad who's dream it has been to see them play- felt like a Mum waving her baby boy off to school!

Appreciate you taking the time to clear that up mate. Came in last night and thought I`d lost the plot !! Cheers.

[CaledonianGonzo]

Shit in Hyde Park II is beyond scorchio. ..

[Gnomicide]

Is there a box of dead butterflies set up on the edge of the stage?

[MEGABOWL]

Cheers for that. Sounds like they both had a ball. Especially Keef considering he was a bit doubtful beforehand.

[GlastoSimon]

Those at Hyde Park are only getting 1hr45 tonight (Glasto got 2hr15), would not be a happy bunny if I'd paid a fortune for that. Although 1hr45 isn't THAT bad.

Gary Clark Jr appearing with them tonight apparently.

[AiiShotTheDJ]

Just had a call from the partner singing to the Vaccines whilst I'm back home in Manc-cheers!!

[eoinca]

Just watched the set on my recorded glasto coverage, glad I legged it when I did, they were terrible.
