Shine a Light

If you’re not a Stones fan, stay away. My first Rolling Stones concert was during the 'Some Girls' tour of 1978; I’ve seen them five times, and still I would like to see them again. This concert at the Beacon Theatre in New York City (2006) is great and intimate, but Scorsese's camera work isn't. Too many close up of Mick and not enough of the band as a whole, the main camera should of been at the back of the room, or simply zoom most of it out. We see little of the drum work; Charlie is almost invisible with Scorsese's lens. It's definitely a must see if your a fan, great set including 'As Tears Go By', 'Far Away Eyes' and the usual hits. Special appearances from Jack White, Aguilera and Buddy Guy. I enjoyed it; I was even wearing my favourite Rolling Stones t-shirt for the occasion. Try sitting furthest away from the screen, it's the only zoom out available! Enjoy!!
