even meeting Bill Clinton (that was a suprise). wow - he is one ugly dude. Ron looked good. love it. and Jack - what a hottie. sexy. seeing the band, up close and personal, I kept saying to Norman - wow - they all have all their HAIR.

I was captivated. I was so into it, I started yelling at the TV - "play Satisfaction." and, "they have GOT to play Satisfaction before it's over." and so on. Christina Aguilera singing with Mick - amazing. thanks, gramma Sally. the back up singers and sax players all great.

OK, his face is pretty old and not pretty, but his body - mmmmmm - I wouldn't kick him outa bed. I got chills. Mick Jagger - over 60 years old - wow - he still has it. I loved it madly. when his little black T-shirt would raise up and you could see his flat tummy, I just wanted to pat it. and all his moves - my gosh - what a work out.

the song with Jack White - Keith playing acoustic - wow - I could cry, so lovely. face it - he is SEXY. the song with Buddy Guy - OH MY GOSH - that was sooooooo GOOD. 'ol Charlie looked good. would have liked it they had cut to see if Hillary was rocking out during a good song, but, nope.

I'm going to buy the DVD. fabo. and a lot of hair. Keith Richards, still can play guitar. he is darn sexy and active for his age. the direction was super, as we assumed it would be with Martin S at the helm.

all fun. that was wicked cool. cool. the little clips of history, interviews, and live performances. my love Norman and I watched this on DVD last night. I loved how he'd spit out his cig when done, cracked me up.

But it's mostly damp squib with the entire movie being about just one concert (all songs shown are played fully) with very few titbits from backstage and fewer clips from Stones' earlier years. This is not a documentary on the Rolling Stones but rather an extended dvd of one concert. Nothing really stands out here. Hugely disappointing as earlier works like "The Last Waltz" and "No Direction Home" are like collectibles that can be watched several times over the years with their timeless quality."Shine a Light" is nowhere near that.one watch and you can toss it in the bin.oh well. After having known Scorsese's earlier work like "Last Waltz" and recently "No Direction Home - Bob Dylan", I expected "Shine a light" to be of a similar standard. All in all very avoidable.

But all the IMAX cameras in the world couldn't make this performance fun to watch. To shoot Shine a Light, they had the lights turned up really high and lots of security at The Beacon. People were all over the stage, at one point a dog walks across in front of Mick. Anything could happen at Altamont. I watched Gimme Shelter the day before watching this and it was much more exciting.

But at Altamont, it was dark and crazy and there didn't seem to be any security.

And the performances were not very inspiring.

And like I said, the sound quality on the Blu-Ray disk was really bad.

But the concert was very predictible.

They could have at least put high-quality sound on the disk.

It's nice that nobody was killed during the filming of Shine a Light.

The picture looked great.

The sound quality here is unacceptable.

At Altamont, the band was sounding great.

The Stones work their magic in the intimate surroundings of the Beacon Theatre. A concert not to be missed.

a must for your Stones collection great job Martin. A sweet peek back stage with the greatest Rock-n-Roll Band in the World.
