Headed down to the Stones in a bit. Anyone else ? Son bought tickets for Christmas presents this year. I took him to the Pepsi Center when they were here in 2005. Probably look an AARP convention haha
It seems like half of Denver is going tonight. I hope ya'll have fun. Gonna be a good night. :)

They probably won't have adequate handicap parking for that one. [Coffee]
My wife offered to take me for my birthday. I declined. I have a hard time believing any antique band is worth that much money. Did see them at Folsom Field with the giant lips stage BITD; worked as a medic and was busy plucking people off the field who passed out from heat or "other."

I'm in the running for tickets through some radio give away. Me and 15K other people.
I had tickets (2) for the original date. Before Jagger got ill prior to the original May dated I discovered I wasn't going to be able to go, sold them at a nice profit. Don't know how that worked out for the buyers. Briefly thought about getting another pair for this and decided against. I'll go with my memories of seeing them a looong time ago at McNichols and in Arizona. For me Let It Bleed will always be my favorite lp. Really wish I could've seen Billy Joel, know a few people that went and were wowed by the show. Said his voice was really strong inspite of being 70, overweight and at altitude. May try to catch an October or November show in NYC.
The last time I saw the Stones it cost me $5 for the ticket. Still want my money back

I met Mick Jagger when I was a boy in Reading, England. It was 1964 and I ordered a soda, and we both got our favorite flavor cherry red.

They are absolutely horrible live.
I never got into any music enough to support them like that. Plus I hate crowds full of drunks and druggies.
Some friends went. They didn't have seats together so they must have scored them late. I haven't heard the AAR yet.

I was there. I remember looking down onto the field. Some guy under the med tent spent the concert rolling over every so often and hurling into a pan. Missed a good show. George Thorogood and Heart also rocked it. Cost me $34. Pricey for a college kid but well worth it.

Yeah, it was cool to be there.
I'm unsure why anyone would despise an iconic and extremely successful band like the Stones, they made some really good music. I don't have any reasons to hate 'em.

No it was the Monkees
OOPs my bad that was Hendrix
I think I saw the Stones when they were opening for Jesus back in the day. Keith Richards looks the same now as he did back then.
So I take it they all survived the set?

Absolute great show !!!! The set production was fantastic. They didn't disappoint from my point of view. The opening band was a Colorado one Nathaniel Rateliff and The Night Sweats. Never heard of them but they were pretty damn good. That was probably my last concert and I'm pretty happy I went !!!

No age is the factor,this morning I felt like I'd been on a 2 week bender haha. The walk from Stadium light rail to Mile High in that crowd before and after almost did me in. With that said it was worth every moment with my son and his girlfriend !

The Sex Pistols opened for Merle at the Dewy Groom's Ballroom.
