Rolling Stones Rock!

… absolutely amazing!!

Laura [from UC] was seated in section 19 on the side, with view of the B-stage a bit to the left:

I was completely blown away by the SOUND, and especially blown away by Keith and Ronnie. I usually have trouble tearing my eyes away from Mick, I remind myself during shows to take a peek at everyone else. […] My seat in the sky gave me a new perspective and appreciation for this setlist – Keith and Ronnie were not complacent. They practiced the ancient art of weaving, they were so creative, adding bits and riffs here and there, smiling at each other, playing off each other, having a great time. Although Start Me Up and Gimme Shelter are usually just dance-along fun for me, the GUITARS were such a highlight during those songs – Keith adding riffs, Ronnie jamming, gorgeous energy and interplay between the two of them – and then Darryl’s solo bit during Miss You…  I cannot believe that Start Me Up had me screaming to the heavens – those guitars! this is fantastic!
