Any Stones fans in this forum?
They were my first favorite group, which lasted a few months when I was 10 years old and then I discovered The Who and Van Halen. I still love them, and they are without a doubt one of the best live bands I have ever experienced.
I have seen them perform live three times, the first was when I was a freshman in college and they played my school! That was the Steel Wheels tour. I almost saw them a fourth time, but when my friend and I got to the show (which we had to fly to San Jose for), it got postponed because Jagger had laryngitis. When the show got rescheduled I couldn't make it, but my friend did. It was in a small venue, very intimate. I was really disappointed to miss this, but thankfully a few years ago they released the show on CD. So I eventually got to at least hear the show. Seeing them up close would have been spectacular.
I came across this article in Ultimate Classic Rock, and was curious if there were any like-minded fans here in Scandal Heaven what your personal dream set list would be. Mine is in the spoiler.

- Spoiler:
The UCR writers limited themselves to 20, but The Stones always play about 28 to 30 songs. I put my personal list at 25, and didn't restrict myself to add a solo song.
I have so many official and unofficial live albums from them that there are certain standard favorites I can do without, as you'll see. I also added a lot more post-Some Girls songs than the UCR crew.
