I saw them and loved it.

To the people crying about the sound...well $35 seats ...what did you expect.

As they say ..you can't always get what you want.


The Living End went off as well.

great night....all the hits and some rare diamonds amongst the mix.

10/10

The Stones come out here and they are supported by the Living End!

Not a huge Stones fan but they certainly did have moments of brilliance.

The living end on the other hand..... concentrated sh*t!

Last time when they toured, all cities except Sydney got You Am I as the support band, which made perfect sense. Sydney however, got some kind of AC/DC/Beatles/Rolling Stones/Iggy Pop's Riff cover band called 'Jet' or somthing...

Y'know when it comes to being a f**ked rock & roll band, Jet are almost up there with the Living End!

Jet are a group of impostors ripping the f**k out of Iggy Pop.
Can't remember which band it was who toured Australia recently, but their lead singer summed up their single 'Are you gonna' be my girl' as an Iggy Pop pastiche! Very true!


Australian music is in the doldrums!

Saw the Stones here in Shanghai last Saturday night. It was only 5 minutes from where I live so I thought I'd better go (and my girlfriend wanted to go). I've never been a fan at all and I'm still not. I just don't see it.

I liked a couple of tracks, but it must be said that Paint It Black stood head and shoulders above anything else they played which is a bad sign for me. I knew most of the songs, but it's the sort of stuff that I hear, think it's alright and then forget about it 5 minutes later.

I saw the Stones at Sydney and it f**king amazing.

The Living end only have 2-3 songs that everyone knows, and everyone knows they are f**ked. It was weird that they come out, played 6-7 songs, then left and we all waited another 45 mins before the stones come out.

Worth the wait though!

I was looking to see if there were any tickets available to the Auckland show, on a whim.

The only tickets left were reserved seats. And at $350 they can go f**k themselves.
