No, gerald! I don't mean his timing. I mean his ability to keep a steady beat (let's call it his "timekeeping"). This has not always been poor! It has always been excellent! He has always played like a metronome!

It is only in recent years that Taku, posting to Usenet as "Helen," has admitted that Mick's timekeeping has deteriorated & that this deterioration created some problems with the last percussionist, Lenny Castro.

The reason of my remark that these four guys had to figure out themselves how this setlist should sound had everything to do with your remarks about the keys on some songs. Maybe one of the guitarists could provide it themselves on those songs while the other does the guitarpart. Or leave them out and rearrange them more stripped down. I love bermuda triangle and Tango sucks, but I did not want to put in ISA, although I truly want to hear that guitarsolo again.
Well, actually, that is a good point. I like to hear songs that suck. I would rather hear a song that sucks than a song that is really good. To me, really good songs don't belong in the concert stage.

PS: Dragonfly is a good addition. Ok that one may replace the triangle.
Triangle is just so ... goofy-sounding. o/~ There's somethin' goin' on/Down in the .../down in the tri-angle o/~

goofball city!
