Rolling Stones live 50

It's good to see you all, It's good to see anybody."

(Keith Richards)

"What a year it's been for British celebrations, there was the Queen's Diamond Jubilee . . . We didn't do that. The Olympics . . . We didn't do that. James Bond's 50th anniversary . . . And we didn't do the song for that either! But I'm so glad that we're here and that you're here."

(Mick Jagger)


Dupa showurile de incalzire, The Rolling Stones au inceput oficial aseara (25 noiembrie) turenul aniversar de 50 de ani/ 50th anniversary tour la O2 Arena in Londra. Cele mai ieftine bilete au fost 90 de lire sterline, care la negru au ajuns pana la 1000 de lire sterline bucata, cit cele din fata scenei!. Printre ospetii de pe scena, fostii membri RS, basistul Bill Wyman (care a parasit trupa in 1992) si chitaristul Mick Taylor (1969-1974), plus Mary J. Blige si Jeff Beck au aparut pe scena. Wyman a cintat pe "It's Only Rock and Roll" si "Honky Tonk Women" iar Taylor si-a facut solo-ul trademark pe "Midnight Rambler". Blidge a acompaniat vocal o versiune gospel-ish la "Gimme Shelter," iar Jeff Beck un "flashy guitar turn" pe "I'm Going Down." Au cintat si piesa noua, "Doom and Gloom" .
La multi ani, Rolling Stones !!!! Hope 2 see ya soon !!!
