Here's the BIG NEWS we've been waiting for!

Oh no! not you again

Rolling Stones deny 50th anniversary shows

added: 22 Sep 2012 // by: Noise11

After much rumour as fact the Rolling Stones have made a statement to say that those stories of some 50th anniversary shows we keep hearing so much about are not true.

In a tweet, the Stones announced, 'Dear fans, no Rolling Stones gigs have been confirmed or announced. Do not buy tickets from the SongKick website, or anywhere else'.

The Rolling Stones have been rumoured to be playing two shows in New York and two shows in London before the end of this year to mark their 50th anniversary year. The story even spread to them doing one show at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Australia.

The Rolling Stones will mark their 50th anniversary with the greatest hits album 'GRRR!' in November featuring two new tracks 'Gloom and Doom' and 'One More Shot', recorded in Paris in August 2012.

Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood are also confirmed to attend the premiere of the movie 'Crossfire Hurricane' later this month.

Thats NOT what theyre referring to.. the first sentence in that post is totally incorrect.

Songkick had listed two shows at London's 02 Arena for 23 and 30 March 2013 and there was a lot of questions being asked on the Stones facebook page (and some speculation on some fansites too) asking about this.

Within a day or so, the Stones issued a statement to specifically deny the dates listed on Songkick and to advise fans not to buy tickets from unauthorised sites. Songkick even replied to the statement apologising for the erroneous listing .

Its standard practice that they'll say 'no shows have been confirmed or announced' - it doesnt mean they wont be taking place.

Its typical of tenth rate news sites to twist a statement into being something it isnt. No doubt, the ever reliable contact music will soon follow suit.

For the record, the rehearsals will be starting soon.

I dont know when the official announcement will be, but there WILL be shows in London and New York before the end of 2012. I'm not allowed to post the London dates yet but they will be in late November. I've now been given the same dates by two different contacts.

The New York shows I know less information about but they will take place in December.

Have you heard anything about the 2 new songs that you can divulge yet? Or have you heard anything that you can't divulge yet?

They can't even release the list of songs on GRRR so I take everything I read with a grain of salt. This band is more and more frustrating with each passing day.

I want a gig in Philadelphia. I also want a personal phone call from Mick and Keith thanking me for my loyalty. And then I'll give them my credit card number for another "fan club" membership. They can charge me. I don't give a fuck.

Chillax my brother.

All you need to do to view the song listing for the GRRR! album is to sign up and create a new account at any one of bands new sponsors, then you'll be sent an email where you can go to a link to download for FREE app for a one time, annual fee of $19.99. Once you've downloaded the app to your smart phone, just travel to the nearest cultural landmark in a city near you, purchase a pair of 3D glasses at Burger King and then point your phone at the landmark, look thru the glasses and you'll see a giant cartoon ape holding a song listing.

See... its easy, breezy baby

Enjoy

And visit the Rolling Stones web store for more fun and merchandise

I don't own a smart phone, so this promotion is wasted on me. You think the Stones would be selling smart phones in that God Damned Store of theirs. That God Damned Store can charge 50 bucks for a crappy tee shirt though.

Oh - what do you folks think of the crappy crap in that God Damned Store? I see really bad tee shirts of marginal photos from the archives.

Getting better, guess they're going to have to start selling these October tickets soon, hopefully expensive enough so that they don't get sold in minutes...think we can trust them to charge as much as they can Wink

Since I'd be traveling anyway, I could deal with a couple hundred more or less.
