(Variety, 10/07/1996, Godfrey Cheshire), "There is not a bad moment in THE ROLLING STONES ROCK AND ROLL CIRCUS. The performances by the Who and Dirty Mac are spectacular..." (Chicago Sun-Times, 10/13/1996, p.13, Jae-Ha Kim), "The entire cast wears circus garb that looks left over from The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper cover, and there's a transcendent moment when Mick Jagger and John Lennon get silly with each other." (USA Today, 10/15/2004, p.6E, Mike Clark), "[T]he Stones' performance stands up well alongside their guests..." (Mojo, 12/01/2004, p.61, Mojo Staff)
