re: Rolling Stones in Vegas:

A FINE show, marred by only a couple of sound system glitches (most notable on "Monkey Man", fittingly enough for this board!) Best I can remember, the set included

Start Me Up
It's Only Rock and Roll
Street Fighting Man
Don't Stop
Monkey Man
Let It Bleed
Midnight Rambler
Can't Always Get What You Want
Tumbling Dice
Thru and Thru
Happy
Honky Tonk Woman
Gimme Shelter
Can't You Hear Me Knocking
Sympathy For the Devil
Satisfaction
(on the B-Stage):
Before They Make Me Run
Like a Rolling Stone
Brown Sugar
(encore)
Jumping Jack Flash

Although the band was outstanding, I have a minor beef that they let Susan Tedeschi, the back up act, play a bit too long (about 45 minutes, 30 would have more than sufficed). The band was focused and in excellent form. Supporting players, including Chuck Leavell on piano and Bobby Keyes on sax were superb (Keyes stood out on "Brown Sugar" and "Can't You Hear Me Knocking"), as was back-up singer Lisa Fischer (especially on Gimme Shelter). The middle part of the show was the best, especially the "Let It Bleed" album focus segment (Midnight Rambler, Let It Bleed, Can't Always Get What You Want), Gimme Shelter, and of course (in Vegas), Tumbling Dice. "Fever in da Funkhouse" indeed!<G>

Here's a link to the Vegas local press accounts, as well as a picture of Keith and Ronnie Wood.
