3. They played Columbia,MO during Steel Wheels.

I thought the world was ending all those years ago.

Yeah-I went.

[ccjlld]

4. Wasn't it the opening date of that tour?

I couldn't go, had to work, but know several people who did.

[xmas74]

10. I believe it might have been.

It's been so long ago now but that does sound about right.

And it was a good concert.

9. I had third row when they played Kansas city Mo during steel wheels

I think In living color toured with them if i remember correctly.

[Nickster]

11. What's your favorite color baby??? Living colour.......

I saw the Stones at Alpine Valley that year. Awesome concert and fireworks afterwards!

[xmas74]

12. They list Kansas City on their site for Steel Wheels

but not Columbia. Funny, huh?

And I remember it being Steel Wheels I went to. You can tell by the way I dressed that it was 1989. I used to have the t shirt and everything w/ the Columbia date on it.

[Guava Jelly]

14. It was a great show

1989 sounds exactly right
How I managed 3rd row I'll never know..Blind luck i guess.
I had pretty long heavy metal hair back then.

[xmas74]

15. I had the Long Island girl hair.

Long, big and poofy. Not a single hair left its place because of all the Aquanet sprayed into it.

I also had acid washed jeans pinched rolled in place and my shirt sleeves rolled up exactly twice.


You lucked out on third row. I was toward the back and felt lucky as a teen to get the spot.

[Guava Jelly]

16. Acid Washed jeans rocked !!

Well at least back then they did.
Bet you were an 80's vision of style.

[xmas74]

17. I was at the time.

I had a closet full of Spuds Mackenzie and GnR shirts, along w/ lots of big hoop earrings.

5. They're playing in Missoula, Montana, too!

Want Stones tickets? Here's how to scare them up
By LAURA RITTER
Tribune Staff Writer

Rolling Stones tickets may not go on sale until Monday,
but it's never too early to get ready.

The Oct. 4 concert in Missoula, believed to be the Stones'
first in Montana, is expected to sell out fast.
An Oct. 8 concert in Regina, Saskatchewan,
reportedly sold out in about 30 minutes last week.

6. They played on Owen Field in Norman, Oklahoma.

What's the big deal? ;)

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

7. I lived in Wichita for 13 years

I was always shocked if ANYONE came to perform in town besides Def Leppard and Barry Manilow.

[Heidi]

8. Owen Field used to be the bane

of high school marching bands statewide. Half the band could line up in one end zone and the other half in the other end zone, and we couldn't see one another because of the rise in the middle. But I bet that's been fixed by now. ;)

13. They're also playing in Zilker Park in Austin, TX

From what I was told, they want to concentrate on small venues this time around.

[martymar64]

18. I hope to be there!

Any word on when Tix go on sale?

[Fleshdancer]

19. next Saturday

:)

Good luck on getting tickets. I can only imagine how fast it's going to sell out.
