Rolling Stones Concert Tour Dates for 2012 Surface On Dutch Website

A Dutch internet site known as ’Artiesten Nieuws’, which roughly translates as 'Artists News', has claimed that The Rolling Stones have ‘announced’ some dates as part of an up-and-coming concert tour, however, Stereoboard believes these dates to be fake.

UPDATE: Since we published this article, The Rolling Stones Official Twitter Account contacted us to confirm our suspicions. The post read: "The story on the Dutch website is untrue, and originates from a site that was duped into selling tickets for non-existant gigs."

The article claims that the website was tipped off by an ‘anonymous’ but ‘reliable’ large European company about the dates, which would see The Stones performing in London, Paris and Berlin among other cities, but there is no official source behind the dates and we believe the dates have been fabricated.

Artiesten Nieuws claims that The Rolling Stones will be performing at Arsenal Football Club’s Emirates Stadium on September 20th – right in the middle of the football season. It’s unlikely a premier league team would be using their expensive new stadium to host rock concerts mid-season – so we can pretty much rule that out. Zurich’s Letzigrund stadium is also said to be used – though FC Zurich and Grasshopper FC would most likely have something to say about that.

It’s still unknown whether the Rolling Stones will decide to venture out onto the road to celebrate 50 years since their first gig together, however, guitarist Ronnie Wood dropped the biggest hints so far this morning, saying that they were on the ‘verge’ of a decision and that a reunion would ‘be lovely, wouldn't it?’.

Stay with Stereoboard for more news on The Rolling Stones – we’ll be the first to alert you of any official announcements that come from the band.

Those 'dates' were 'leaked' weeks ago. Utter crap and one of what will probably be a few similarly false 'announcements' over the next few weeks as numerous scam artists and shysters attempt to hook in gullible fans with more money than sense.

The Stones will not be in Europe in late September/October - they couldnt get some of those stadiums for starters as they'll be in use and stadium tours of Europe at that time of year are a non-starter.

They'll be in the US around that time.

Rumours of personnel changes? If you really did hear rumours about them switching things up for this year could you say what? You seem to be a guy in the know, if so, do you ever see Bill and Mick Taylor sharing a stage with the Stones again?

Well, my comment was very tongue in cheek.

However, people have been talking for a while of Taylor and/or Wyman playing with the band on the next tour - based primarily on the fact that they've both had some degree of input into recent releases, its the Stones' 50th anniversary, and will almost certainly be their final major tour. That's the 'rumours' I'm alluding to.

As I mentioned before, Wyman and Ben Taylor jammed with the Stones in December. I don't necessarily read anything significant into that. I can't imagine Leavell NOT being the keyboard player on the next tour as he's the band's musical director. And Wyman doesn't fly.

For different reasons, I don't think its at all practical that either Wyman or Taylor will rejoin the band for a tour. Wouldn't rule out some cameos though - that's just my personal opinion, however.

Channel 4 Dispatches programme defeats injunction attempt from Viagogo

Channel 4 claims to reveal hidden practices used by live event promoters and a major ‘fan-to-fan' ticket exchange

Channel 4 Dispatches programme has defeated an injunction in the High Court today (Wednesday 22nd February) and can now reveal an important public interest investigation into how real fans are paying the price for hidden practices used by live event promoters and a major ‘fan-to-fan ticket exchange'.

Dispatches, which will air tomorrow night (Channel 4 on Thursday 23rd February 2012 at 9PM), went undercover inside one of the UK's biggest ticket reselling websites - Viagogo - and found that major promoters allocate hundreds or even thousands of tickets to be sold through their website at well above the face value.

Tickets for recent gigs and tours by Coldplay, Rihanna, Westlife, Take That, and V Festival have been allocated by the promoters in this way.

The application for an injunction was brought by Viagogo on the grounds of ‘breach of confidence' and it was dismissed on all counts at the High Court today.

A Channel 4 spokesperson says: "We are pleased that we can now broadcast in full a programme of important public interest. It is disappointing that having provided Viagogo with a fair opportunity to respond to the allegations uncovered by our investigation several weeks ago, they chose instead to seek an injunction which would have effectively stopped the broadcast of our programme."

Nope.

I expect there'll be a release of some kind to support the tour, but I've heard nothing to suggest the band have been working together or will work together on a new studio release.

Another compilation is more likely and is something that has been rumoured for some time.

A career-spanning documentary is in the works as well.
