I thought I had heard that the concert promoters and some of the venues couldn't agree to certain terms just yet. Of course, I could have heard wrong. People were talking when I saw that news report. Big mouthed bastards...

Now, if someone from the board were to win that contest, they have to fit in a reference to the board, especially if it was at an actual concert. Before you say "Ladies and Gentlemen...", yell out "Stones and Slots rule, You Bastards!" Someone in the damn audience would have to get that reference.

gotta scheme the scam.

Is "justakissaway.rocks" a new domain that was created for this tour? or are they just repurposing an old one?

Encouraging news for Raleigh fans:

I have been trying to be silent on this so not to have my hopes dashed...seems to be paying off.

We dont have many billboards around here...the few dont seem to have changed in the 6 years I have been down here.

Anyway...get the BBQ a cookin' and let throw down like only  RO knows how!!

Always. 

Man what a beautiful morning!

Crisp, springy, waking up today and spending my summer concert dollars (hear that Stones -- crisp, springy, American greenbacks) on tickets to the Eagles.

Yep.

You heard it hear Mick.

Deperado
Why don't you come to your senses

I am done riding fences.

Might catch Kid Rock too.

This might just bring Moonie back. 

are we even trending?

(remember, I'm the only one who had the tour name
correct, before "festival forecaster", before BV)   

I posted this pic earlier at shidoobee, pointing to an announcement of at least the Indy date at the 500 on May 25. Since I don't
    think anybody commented (sorry if i missed it), perhaps people thought I was joking...

    I wasn't. I've traced the photo back to a woman in Canada (@mfremillard) who seems to do hype for the entertainment
    industry generally and the upcoming Stones tour particularly, with no further credit for the pic. According to Google,
    the photo did not exist online before March 15.  I'm virtually certain its an intentionally leaked clue, similar to how
    certain things are being leaked to "festival forecaster".

    As far as I'm concerned, the only question is if all the dates will be confirmed at the Indy 500 or just the Indy date.
    I'm guessing the latter, but I don't have any evidence of that. I'm also guessing that the rest of the dates will
    not be confirmed until at least mid-April. (When I guess, just in case I haven't been clear, I am not just pulling
    something out of my ass, usually, but rather trying to apply what I know about how the game of hype is played)







     
I think this woman in Canada is also the source of that great Micky image somebody posted,
which causes me to now rate Orlando like Indy as an absolute lock for a show. I don't mean to say
by any means that all other shows are wide open, I don't think that, but I do think a number of things
could yet be bumped around...

(yes. just checked. this image didn't exist until march 13)

It means an official tie-in with Disney (how about that!) just like an official tie-in with the Indy 500.
So amazingly mainstream.




nothing at this link. yet. https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/tickets/events/

Same woman tweeted:

#RollingStones on Saturday Night Live on 16 May ?

(which is perfectly in line with my speculation, and the "festival forecaster" hint)

and she tweeted:

The #RollingStones will end their new tour "15 On Fire" on 15 july in #Quebec !

(she didnt put a question mark on that one, so i will now move quebec into the "lock" column, along with Indy and Disney)

and she tweeted this on march 15 "It looks like #RollingStones will play 1-2 special gigs in USA, featuring only Sticky Fingers's album, to record dvd"

(when did GG24 first post her exact same info? and did she say where she got it? as you know, i think "not just dvd, also worldwide live broadcast to theatres, with special guests")

and here is what she said about Columbus: "#RollingStones will be playing #Columbus #Ohio May 30th"

(again, no question mark, so columbus goes into the "lock" column too)

(and still more for the "lock" column, so now we have a much better idea of which places are not yet locked)

"#RollingStones are coming to #KansasCity #Orlando #Milwaukee #Atlanta #Buffalo #Indianapolis #SanDiego and more !"

(Good news buffalo and milwaukee, i thought you both might be in jeopardy. have all larger venues been eliminated for milwaukee? all the stadiums unavailable?)

(almost finished i think. she mentions pittsburgh as definite in another tweet. then there's this awesome tweet:)

"#RollingStones tickets will go on sale to the public on Monday, March 30. #SanDiego #Pittsburgh #Buffalo and all the others !"

(she hasnt retracted it or modified it in any way. so that would mean all the dates will be announced in Indy march 25, probably on the Indy TV broadcast)

Disclaimer: I don't know shit. I have no sources. I'm just guessing. Leave me alone. Hey you kids, get off my lawn!

Further disclaimer: She seems to be the source of the Red Rocks rumor, and she has not retracted that either. Hmm. Okay,
I'll put red rocks back on the possible list at least. i still think all stadiums, but now i have my doubts. there may yet
be two amphitheatres, red rocks and milwaukee. i still think no, no amphitheatres, i think stadiums for colorado and wisconsin.

Final disclaimer: she's obviously a semi-official source, but of course, with the stones, even semi-official sources will
sometimes be instructed to issue disinfo (and you can't blame them, they don't know whether its disinfo, they're
just doing their jobs).  but she definitely is another source to keep our eyes on.

Gonna be kinda hard to squeeze all four Stones in that cockpit.
