I'm thinking what song the opener will be.

Warhorse?

maybe a new song!!! recycled riffs with new lrics and a beat... I would suggest Mich use "get the juices flowing" as a template lyric to get him started on writing a song.

Yeah maybe a new song that's been left in the can or Blondie Champlin have given them.

Stones got what they need, they just need to stop having too much fun w/ all that $ n' get back to work.

It's gonna be interesting.

Times running out and I don't think Keith can play much, hence Blondie's guitar might be turned up more.

no idea how credible this source is, also says AC/DC is doing a stadium tour next summer with a show at Wembley.

http://rockerparis.blogspot.com/2011/11/rolling-stones-to-play-stade-de-france.h...

Just after Keith Richards confirmed yesterday night that the band are planning to rehearse in a London studio later this month but more likely without Mick Jagger.

I've just been told that The Rolling Stones are planning to play @ Stade de France in Paris in Sept 2012.
Remember where you saw it first.

So I was up in my room, when I suddenly thought I should peek at what's going up in the world. I ran downstairs, mounted my scooter, turned on my computer and was pretty happy to find out that Mick Jagger and the Rollin' Stones are getting back together! This made me 'howl at the moon', and it even aroused asthmatic breathing behind me. That's when I decided that I, like Prince, should be named after an unpronouncable symbol.

I think that Amy Winehouse should be the opening number.

Great choice.

Am I the only one who would like them to ditch the b-stage as its become a bit of a wasted opportunity in terms of song choices , half the crowd have their back to it making it a buzz-killer and the sound tends to be shit for 15 minutes?

It was great when they used to use it to play stuff like Little Red Rooster, Dead Flowers, Midnight Rambler, Little Queenie etc, but its a bit silly to fill it full of songs like Honky Tonk Women and Start Me Up.

If the Stones think the audience can only get excited having them 10 feet in front of them if they play a warhorse, then its pretty sad.

Its a part of the show thats been done to death IMO - there's no real element of surprise to it anymore musically.

I agree and disagree...I think it is wasted in a stadium...but very effective and alot of fun for an arena...Heck...I wish they had a stage set up like Prince had/has on his Welcome2America "tour".

He uses 75% of the floor space and uses it well...and EVERYBODY has a great seat!!!

And yes...those are bistro tables w/ cocktail service during the show...that's what $500.00 gets you...otherwise you paid $20-105.00 for the rest of the house.

Tingle tingle tingle.

A very exciting development from our heros.

As for openers, I have said it before and I will say it again.

If they do not open with Sympathy, they will have blown the rock & roll opportunity of all time.

You want a rocker, that people know and that will charge them up, that captures the essence of the band, in all their naughty goodness. You want a song that is visually striking, with fire and red Gibsons and devils and shit.

An opener should stick with you.
Remember how well Not Fade Away worked in 1994 -- it just built up into a frenzy.
Imagine what they could do with Sympathy.

Open letter to the Stones -- Sympathy for the opener.
Satan says so...

Yeah, that was a similar set up to the 02 shows he played (one of which some of us attended) when the Stones were in town the same week. I think the pricey tickets were around £250 - but the vast majority were £31.21 (about $50) and every seat was a really good one. Not easy to do in a 20,000 capacity arena.

I agree 100% time to move on.....hopefully we don't have to worry about stadiums at all but if so my hunch is they will slap some red tongues onto a version of U2's claw stage......

Those are my sentiments for SMU...not a good song to play for what may well be your last tour...
