The Fab Four said the music didn't sound the same.
The Rolling StonesAlthough the roof covered the Stones' performance in the stadium last night in Detroit, the singing didn't sound the same.
Your Business Blogger saw the Rolling Stones North American Tour, in Norfolk, Virginia on July 5, 1972.
The Stones didn't sound the same. Now compared to then.

My dad got me Stones tickets. Courtesy: United States Navy, I think. (How did he do that?) (I don't think I ever thanked him.) Too late now. That matters.

Mick Jagger seemed full of himself, he is a rock star in the true sense of the word, and I'm okay with that. I thought the Stones sounded very satisfied even though they were saying they lacked it.
