Hadn't seen them before, and they're getting on a bit, so I thought I should finally go to their show when it came to Abu Dhabi. They were excellent. It's obvious that Keef's arthritis means it's harder to play the twiddly bits but he's just about getting away with it for now at least.
Most importantly the guitars on show were awesome. Telecasters everywhere, LP Jrs and Specials, but the best sounding guitars by far were Ron's LP (probably an R9 rather than an old one), bizarrely enough an ESP (I think!) double-humbucker Tele with B-bender and Keef's black ES-355. I'm not a big fan of RW's playing usually, but his solo at the end of You Can't Always Get What You Want was absolutely fantastic- up there with the best Les Paul sounds I've heard.
