Are you kidding? These guys looked exactly like you would expect rock and rollers that should have quit decades ago. And where was the mixer? Vocals come in about the second line. Guitar solo after about 8 measures? Asleep at the wheel. I thought the whole thing was laughable. Oh, did I mention they sounded like total crap?

Are you kidding me. It's a wonder they're still alive! They're having fun making oodles of money doing what they love to do most. |

Yeah. I thought ghey were incredibly sloppy, Munch was on it. But then I remembered how frigging old they are and my attitude changed. Damned good for a bunch of old farts. But I never liked the Stones. But I admire their stick-to-ativeness. But they're a little too corporate, you know? It's a huge corporation propping up a bunch of old guys. I can admire that too!

Go listen to some old live Stones. They have always been a sloppy band live. You don't go to a Stones show for the same reasons you go to hear Yes or King Crimson or a Perfect Circle. The Stones are about not giving a S----, and they make you feel like flipping off the world. Their sloppiness has been a risky but integral part of their sound for 40 years. If you don't feel the happy anarchy of it all, you're never going to be a Stones fan.

As far as I am concerned they should do it right or why bother? You want to keep young people turned on to music that us ol' fogies are into and try to get them back to rock and roll roots? This isn't helping. I can hear it now: Grampa? That is the Stones you always bragging about? Yeah, pretty good, for old folks, eh? | |

I'm 46 and I was laughing. I was in a band when I was about 14 that played Satisfaction. I'm quite sure we sounded a lot better. | |

The Stones "reinterpreted" their previous hits. It wasn't good, but it was fun and cool, and certainly a lot better than the sh*t from last year. Very few bands could have gotten away with the crap they dropped tonight... but THEY can do that. thumbsup s |

Hell I'm 10 years younger and I can barely remember the parts to stuff I wrote 5 years ago. Try remembering the parts to some 400 songs you've played over the past 40 years without your mind getting completely scrambled. Then drag yourself and your arthritic fingers up on stage and do your best in front of a millions of people LIVE without the slightest bit of nervous jitters. It's only rock and roll |

I put the headphones on and listened to the Stones. It sounded really really bad. If it were me playing, I'd be embarrassed. Ok, whatever. I'm out. |

it was quite bad. aside from the foh guy being asleep at the wheel, mick's vocals were all over the place, no sense of pitch whatsoever, richards guitar playing sounded like a 10 year old playing a HONDO, and watts' drumming was pitiful at best. the stones were great and all back in the day but they need to know when to give it up. i think their in-ears deliver electric shocks to their brains to keep them alive. all that being said... i'd rather have that than britney, justin, mariah, or any of that other garbage. and at least they didn't use tape backing or anything.

Ah, we have spoiled our children.... Guys, this was all live. I can't remember one group that was entirely live over the last 5 Superbowls. They all use tape. The last two generations are used to having their music served up perfect and autotuned. This band was never about perfect sound, it was about the energy and rude, naked rock and roll. This is what real people playing real music sounds like. Ever wonder why Britanny and Beyonce never sound out of breath while dancing and singing? It's because they are performing to tape.. The industry has serverd us synthetic sounds and feelings in music for too many years and when you hear what real music sounds like, well I guess you get the whining. And I am not even a Stones fan. I should say I was proud of the boys; all that youthful energy jumping in front of them and not one heart attack amongst them trying to keep up. |

For what it's worth, I thought the Stones were terrible... no where near the league of Paul McCartney's performance last year. He slayed everyone last year... the vocals were amazing, the band kicked ass, and the energy level was through the roof. Essentially, the exact opposite of the Stones performance tonight. I always thought the Stones were one of the most overrated bands in history and I like very few of their songs. I think it has become taboo for these 40-50 something baby boomers to NOT like the Stones... there are many, many artists from that same period of music that are far better and have written much better songs. That said, to all you Stones fans, your boys sounded pretty rough tonight.

I thought that they sounded great and Mick is in ridiculous shape even if he was my age. Which he is not. Those songs were boooring though. I guess I'm used to these shows doing medleys and not full songs. Those songs need some more parts and more lyrics. (I twy, and I twy, and I twy, and I twy, I can't get no.....) |

One guitar panned hard left, the other was sometimes MIA, sometimes panned center, making a left-heavy balance. Vocals MIA for the first few lines. Guitar leads fading up halfway through the lead. I'm sure it was a high-pressure live mix gig, but I would still expect better. It's not like nobody involved had ever heard these songs before. |
