The time has finally come. Tomorrow morning I board a plane for Boston, MA. The Stones open the Bigger Bang Tour at Boston's Fenway Park on Sunday night. Weather calling for strong thunderstorms...let's hope it's earlier in the day and that all is clear by showtime.
Packing the suitcase, "Got my money, my ticket and all that shit, I even got a little shaving kit" remember that lyric?
Have heard "Rough Justice", "Oh No Not You Again", "Back of My Hand" and "Infamy" all live in Toronto, and have heard full versions of "Streets Of Love", "It Won't Take Long" and "This Place is Empty" online...plus clips of all the rest. Everything sounds so fucking fantastic, back to the raw rock n' roll Stones without all the bells & whistles. Album comes out on Sept. 6.
Media is having a frenzy in Boston...boys are on the cover of all major newspaper, including USA Today. Finally getting the GOOD press they deserve!
