Finally saw the Stones for the first time last night at Comerica Park in Detroit. What an incredible show they put on! Mick's singing isn't what it used to be obviously, but he's still quite the showman, and musically it was great. Ronnie really impressed me with some of his solos and the way those two play together sounds so good. Got some pretty decent pics, was 3rd row on the field, but in one of the sections to the far side (so paid half the price of everyone else on the field!)

From the Stones page:
Tonight the Rolling Stones rocked Motor City! ?#?StonesDetroit?
The band played a killer 19 song set including a tribute to Motown records with their first performance this tour of the Temptations classic, ‘Just My Imagination’. The band also played Sticky Fingers gems ‘Moonlight Mile’ and ‘Bitch’.
The band are now heading to Buffalo, New York, for the final date of their American tour, and the penultimate North American show. Keep on rollin’!

I took them with my FujiFilm FinePix S9200, it's a point and shoot, but a pretty good one. Has 50x zoom, 16MP. I was 3rd row but off to the side aways, the Mick picture was when he was on the walkway in front of the video screen pretty close to my seat, the rest were center stage and zoomed in, just took a little patience and luck to get the lighting right to get a few to turn out. Here's a wide pic from my seat.
Thanks for the review
Anyone else going tonight to Buffalo?
weather looks good,St Paul and the Broken Bones openers
