Getting sea sick after only 1 song
Had potential but I watched Start Me Up and this one suffers the same fate most new concerts do nowadays- over-editing. Maybe they think no one has any attention span anymore, but I'd prefer watching guitar solos or nonmoving camera shots and just enjoy the band and music. They waste so much money on production and end up with camera shots that never last more than a second or two, the cameras are constantly moving left and right up and down almost making me dizzy, and they jump from mile away shots to extreme close-ups. It's a shame because the picture is perfect, the sound rocks, and though the Stones are past their prime still rock out. I have to prefer the older concerts on crappy cameras because you can actually watch the band play and Mick sing for more than a second at a time. Please keep it simple next time and save the gimmicky stuff for bands that need it.
