I'm not sure exactly 'how' I was exhausted from the '06 show. I wasn't dancing in the aisles or anything, so it wasn't a physical exhaustion. But the Stones just emotionally wrung out the audience, for lack of a better description. Two nights later, debating whether to see the Who, all I could think about it was, Dude, I'm still not quite recovered from the Stones yet.
Bryan Adams in '99: first and foremost, I'm just not a fan of the guy. He just doesn't do anything for me. I don't dislike him, I'm just bored by him (which I guess means that by default, I do dislike him; not personally though). His band was a three-piece, and everything was snow-white: the band's t-shirts and pants, the stage floor, even the drums. I basically shrugged my way through that set.
This is so random, but Mick Jagger has a huge mouth. hahah
"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe. Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind, Possessing and caressing me." "About a lucky man who made the grade" "I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you."

And what about - When a Man Loves a Woman, by Bryan Adams ? Incredible!!! Incomparable!!! The best of the best! So romantic and touching! Don`t you think so?
also Steven Tyler from Aerosmith. They both kinda have the same look.
Oh GOD no!!! NO, NO, NO, NO, NO!!!!
NO!
BTW, how much of a rip off is this pic? They SO wanna be the American Rolling Stones. NOT QUITE. BTW, Tyler doesn't have 1/8th of the sex appeal Mick had/has.
I always looked at Aerosmith -- when they were at their best, in the mid '70s, as trying to bridge the gap between the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin; the Stones in their look and attitude, and raunch, and Zeppelin in their melodies (Dream On, Joe Perry's style of play).
I don't dislike Aerosmith (I have one of their greatest hits albums, with their '70s stuff, which is enough for me), but I was a little dismayed when I saw in the Guiness record book a few years ago that the top five album-selling bands in the U.S., according to the RIAA (Recording Ind. Assn. of America), are (in order) the Beatles, Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, the Eagles, and AEROSMITH!
I was shocked that Aerosmith has outsold the Stones (at least in terms of albums) in the U.S. I know they had their big comeback in the '80s (actually they got way bigger than they ever were in the '70s), but still! I was slightly less surprised by the high rankings of Floyd and the Eagles, though in their cases each band had a couple of albums that are in the top 5 or 10 biggest sellers ever. The Stones don't have that one Godzilla-type album like The Wall, or Dark Side, or Eagles Greatest Hits -- their stuff sold steadily but in smaller numbers. I still think of the Stones as being bigger than all other bands except for the Beatles and Zep, but maybe they're not as popular as I think.
The thing is that Stones` music is harder to absorb. I believe they are greater onstage than on CD, so to speak. Every song of theirs becomes outstanding when you watch them perform. Their music is real rock. While Aerosmith is much more pop and they have more catchy melodies. People in the majority prefer pop, or rock-pop, or the like. You are right, Stones are big and great, but less popular - cause they are not pop.
I meant in the sense that they have big mouths and also really skinny and somewhat style of clothes. Wrong choice of words HAHA Mick is way better than Steven! Steven is starting to look scary like he had a bunch of surgery or something
