Once again I was lucky enough to have my oldest son take me to see the 
Stones. This time we had floor seats right beside the second stage. 
Great sound. However, nobody sat down and for a short, old dude like me 
that was a major hassles. Had to take a few seat breaks and watch them 
on the screen. As usual they put on a good show. The fact that it was 
held in the Molson Centre and not the Big Owe made a lot of difference 
in the sound. Lotsa good guitars being used there.
When they came down to the second stage we were about 20 ft. away from 
them. My son almost caught one of Ron Woods's picks at the end of the 
set.
The opening act was a trio from Saskatchewan called Wide Mouth Mason. A 
little loud and the vocals tended to get lost in the mix. Don't know the 
guy's name but the kid on guitar was really good. He had a Gibson 
Blueshawk(?). Not sure of the type. Used two Fender amps, blonde, maybe 
the newer series. Bassist, also very good, had an Ampeg 2x15 cab. 
Couldn't see his amp too well. Laid down some good stuff too. Drummer 
was also great.
