Mick, Keith, and Mick Taylor on guitar. For the youngin's out there - this is what they used to call "music"
Did they also tour in Texas in the late sixties? I vaguely remember sneaking into a Stones concert in either Dallas or Fort Worth. It would have had to have been pre-fall of 69.
It’s heavier, and more complex, with bigger arrangements, and the songs are longer; the musicians are more technically proficient, the singers have more power and range, generally; songs are about more than woman and cars and parties and stuff like that.
But, I am referring to metal music...
saw them play 41 years ago tonight in MSG... but this wasn't on the set list of the three times i saw them, it was the best Stones show i ever saw
"We have two guitar players in this band, and you ain't one of them!" - Keef Richards.
Saw them way too long ago at the Hollywood Bowl.
Right on, bro!
The bones were strolling fine 10 years ago in this great clip that showcases Mick, Ronnie, Charlie, along with the inimitable Bobby Keys:

Dead Flowers is country, and this is jazz...not bad for the worlds greatest rock and roll band!
dfu, how the hell are ya??? that was prolly a great show also...
Party on Mick. One of my favorites was at the time in concerts they introduced him as Mick “bums rush Jagger.” During their appearance on SNL, the first thing that happened in the familiar Olympia restaurant sketch ( Cheeburger, Cheeburger ) was Dan Akroyd threw Mick out of the place.
Me and a hooligan friend snuck into a Stones concert in Nashville around 1997. I guess Mick was just in his fifties then, a young pup.
They did their early songs from a small stage in the middle of the audience lit only by a single spotlight. Then this telescoping bridge brought them back to the main stage where they did their later songs. I want to say there were giant inflatable Egyptian glyphs on either side. It was an impressive show.
I remember when Mick made an appearance on Weekend Update, doing an imitation of Keith Richards, while Mike Meyers did an imitation of Mick.

Oh, my my
I’m the lone crap shooter
Playin’ the field every night.

You got to roll me, and call me
Happy 70th Birthday Mick!
