I hope Mick has got a few more years left in him yet and gets better soon.I saw the Stones at Wembley in 1990 (Urban Jungle Tour). A great show. The whole of one end of the stadium was the stage and Mick strutted his stuff up and down the entire length of it.
My mate and I were close to the left-hand end and within about 20 feet of the man when he came to where we were standing. A time to remember.

It was in support of the Steel Wheels album and I remember the band being booked for Wembley for five nights. However, they only played three because Keith Richards broke his finger.
I was in the RAF at the time and we got involved with stewarding duties. I was lucky enough to see some big bands (and football play-offs) during my 2-year posting at Northolt.

'Guns N' Roses' was playing there too and 'Nothing Compares To You' (Sinéad O'Connor) was playing over the system as we walked into the stadium. I came away from the concert and everything sounded muffled to my ears. We were really close to the stage speakers. No wonder I have tinnitus these days.

I've been racking my brain trying to think who the support act were for the Rolling Stones on that tour...was it a band from Scotland? 'Gun' or somebody? Can't remember.
I'd love to have seen them last year (like the lucky Ruthio did
), but I went to see Roger Waters instead. One big band per year at those prices I'm afraid.
