So...We have...


+ 2 festival shows in 3 months
+ 1 Vegas show in 3 months...
+ 2nd Vegas show rumored...
+ Keith in NY last month doing add-ons / overdubs on new material
+ Exhibitionism opens in NY in November
+ With few exceptions, tickets for Zip Code and Ole went on sale about 3-4 months before shows


What we are asking ourselves...


+ Will we get an actual Fall 2016 tour?
+ Could it be a Southern US Winter tour?
+ Are they saving it for Spring?
+ Will they play another magical night in Raleigh again?

Theatre show at the Saenger in New Orleans.

My guess is the photos of Keith in the studio are for that new BBC documentary and not a Stones album.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2016/keith-richards-my-generation-season

Of course there'll be a tour later in the year. They're hardly going to do a three show trek - especially to promote a new record.

Desert Trip isnt a Stones show but a festival so they have no control over when that event gets announced and put on sale.

I'd expect more solid confirmation in the next couple of weeks.  Would make sense publicity wise to tie it in with some kind of announcement regarding details of their next album.

Dont be expecting a prolonged series of concerts. It'll be the usual 15 dates or thereabouts I'm sure stretched over a couple of months. They wont commit themselves as a band to more than that many shows in one stretch anymore.

What a buzz-kill you are Gazza!!!  :willya

I want rumors dammit...Spread them...deny them...make them up...I just want some dirt and a bit of sympathy!!!

Over at IORR, Bjornulf says there will be additional shows announced on a shorter notice. Most likely 12-15 gigs total as they have been doing every 6 months or so.

2 months away...and still...no word...not even a tiny rumor....
I know all logistics say a tour is coming...but holidays are 2 months after the Vegas show...and you know the band wont rush into them straight off a tour...when it finally comes...

This announcement will be BIG

Checking in at IORR, BV is saying it looks as if this fall will not be a 12-15 date tour. The second Vegas gig is still rumored but nothing else.
I'm in for the Vegas 10/19 and just finished my travel and hotel plans for that week. I decided not to wait for a potential second gig figuring there would be something in the northeast. It doesn't look promising at this point.
There is a strong rumbling of Europe next June. If that happens, I am there.

There WILL be a second Stones' Vegas T-Mobile Arena Gig [ October 22nd  ]  ........ the casinos can always comp the Frig out of the venue . Mick and Keef do not care as long as they play to a full house  .... and get their money :)

TOUR COMING SOON!!!

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/english/music/news/Mick-Jagger-reaches-financial-pact-for-eighth-child/articleshow/53895445.cms


Singer Mick Jagger has reportedly agreed a financial settlement with a young ballerina carrying his eighth child.

The baby is not due until December, but the 72-year-old star is thought to have already sorted out a child maintenance deal with Melanie Hamrick, 29.

Mick Jagger overjoyed with birth of great-grandchildren

Jagger has promised a five figure sum every month to Hamrick. He has given her legally binding assurances, which include monthly payments of 11,400 pounds and a promise to buy her a house wherever she chooses to live. The payments, up until the age of 18, would add up to 2.5 million pounds, reports mirror.co.uk.

Hamrick has been dating the Rolling Stones singer for two years. He has made it clear he does not intend to marry her. The dancer became pregnant during the band's tour of South America earlier this year.


She currently lives in New York, but may buy a house in Connecticut, where her family lives, or in Los Angeles.


The rock icon already has four children with model Jerry as well as a daughter with former-wife Bianca Jagger, a daughter with Marsha Hunt and Lucas.


Knock me up Sir Jagger!!

Lisa Fischer just announced a show here in Durham on Oct 25...can mean nothing... can mean something...

http://www.carolinatheatre.org/events/ms-lisa-fischer-grand-baton-0

She gave a great show here earlier this year (reviews were positive) and well,
perhaps her Stones career is over or just on hold...who knows?

4 hours ago Sasha Allen tweeted that she's doing Stones rehearsals in LA.

I love social media!

Here is a discovery form the latest "This is total bullshit" news...

As a troll on RS.com, I like to just look at the shows/tours etc...Last night I clicked on the second Vegas show to see how this so-called "overwhelming demand" is working out...

The interface is easier than it was for the first show...cleaner and slicker than Ticketbastard...now get this...when you choose the number of tickets...ex/ 2 tickets...you are able to buy them AND reserve 6 seats next to you WITHOUT PAYING FOR THEM...RESERVE...for a LIMITED TIME...it is offered as Friend Invite or something like that...who knows when they are released back into the pool...(anyone??)

So a sold out show...is likely NOT sold out for some time...its like a scalpers DREAM!!!
Reserve...find a customer in the market and sell him the ticket...no risk to the seller!!

I know I may be over simplifying it...but I dont think I am too far off...

Consider this...(even though there seems to be seats a plentiful at the moment)...considering and removing from the formula all  the "presales...the thousands of tickets on secondary sites a week before the show...and hookups, promoter tkts and the so-called first 10 rows for friends...

If there are 10000 seats in the place left on sale day......and there is an 8 ticket limit (sale + reserve)...that leave alot of folks who just want a "cheap tkt" out to dry...those $800 tkts are still around...

Ranting here is all...

Best advice...never go to Vegas thinking you are going to "save money". Those extra tickets will be wholesaled out to hotels/casinos as comps for their Whales.

There will be no Stones tour this fall… look and hope for winter dates… unless they are doing something they've never done, and doing an unannounced tour…

Incredible stuff. And spot on.

The bottom line is that the band and promoters dont care who buys their tickets.

If some fucking idiot wants to buy up tickets which are already very expensive and try to make money on them, then the responsibility for getting rid of those tickets rests with them. The band and the promoters are already paid, so if someone ends up having to offload a $500 ticket for $150 then thats their problem for misjudging the demand.

Its a pretty shameful way of treating a loyal fanbase. I'm glad to be out of this bait and switch nonsense.

It has just dawned on me that the band has NOT named this 2 city 4 show tour...

Anyone care to suggest a catchy name??
Ole and ZipCode have already been used....

GRRR!! I believe is available...

I'm game. If it happens, the meet-up would be at the same place everyone went to last year.

Now I can't remember the name of the damn place!

And I fear when and if ever the Stones were to play in Winston-Salem and somehow, someway Joey came to that show. The Quad at Wake Forest University would never be the same again.

That was it! That was a cool place. And the waitresses were happening in all the right ways. Hate I didn't see you, PA, or Sai Wong before the show, but what a damn day that was. It was an absolute highlight of the year. If the tour happens next year, I hope to go to a show again.
