At their press conference following the set, Charlie Watts, asked about his fight against throat cancer, stated ''I'm fine''. Mick Jagger said that he thought "the examiners at Juilliard would have us come back and retake that one'' regarding his thought-to-be poor performance; Keith Richards just shrugged.
Asked about their potential windfall from the tour, Richards made it clear that money was not the point of this return to the road stating: ''You can have the money''.
Jagger joked, ''This is one of the earliest concerts we've played.''
They were as good as ever.
