Rolling Stones reach back into catalog for setlist at L.A. club show
The Rolling Stones dug deep into their catalog and pulled out a few surprises for a club show ahead of their 50 And Counting tour Saturday at the Echoplex in Los Angeles.
The show, which was blogged with the setlist and some of Mick Jagger's comments as it happened on the Stones' @rollingstones Twitter account, opened with “You Got Me Rockin',” then moved to “Respectable,” after which Jagger was said to joke, "Welcome everybody to Echo Park. The neighborhood that's always coming up. Glad you're here to welcome an up and coming band"
Next came “She So Cold,” and “Live With Me.” Accoridng to Twitter, Jagger then said, “This one we haven't done in a while, and the band roared into “Street Fighting Man.”
Jagger said, “We're gonna do a ballad now, a kinda soul ballad anyway,” and the band did “That's How Strong My Love Is.”
They then did what Jagger introduced as “a real old song” and sang “Little Queenie,” then another Motown song, “Just My Imagination.”
Next was “Miss You,” after which Jagger said, We're having a great time up here! We're going to reintroduce a friend of ours up here. We're going to do a blues number by Robert Johnson.” The song was “Love In Vain,” and the friend was Mick Taylor, who also played on the next number, to “speed things up a bit,” as Jagger introduced “Midnight Rambler.”
Going into the home stretch, the band began with “Start Me Up,” then finished off with “Brown Sugar” and “Jumpin' Jack Flash.”
To end the show, Jagger told the crowd, “Thank you very much, everybody. You've given us hope, peace and understanding. Goodnight.”
The Stones announced the show Saturday morning and it sold out right away.
