The Rolling Stones are taking votes for their request slot for the Melbourne show at Rod Laver Arena on Wednesday night.

The five songs being considered for Melbourne are:

Like A Rolling Stone (from Stripped, 1995)
Street Fighting Man (from Beggars Banquet, 1968)
Live With Me (from Let It Bleed, 1969)
Just My Imagination (from Some Girls, 1978)
Rocks Off (from Exile On Main Street, 1972)

It is interesting to see Bob Dylan’s ‘Like A Rolling Stone’ back in the list. The song was played at their first show in Adelaide last week.

In Perth the Stones performed ‘Bitch’ from ‘Sticky Fingers’ at the first show and the extremely rare ‘Loving Cup’ at the second Perth show. ‘Loving Cup’ had never been performed by the Rolling Stones in Australia and the band has only ever played the song 22 times.

Previous setlists: Adelaide and Perth 1 and Perth 2.

The next Rolling Stones show is Melbourne, November 5, 2014.
