Rolling Stones Planning 18 North American Tour Dates: Source
Band also rumored to be playing Glastonbury

The Rolling Stones' '50 and Counting' shows in London and New York last year were some of their tightest shows in years. "There have been quite a few offers," Mick Jagger said afterward, weighing a full tour. Added Keith Richards, "Really, all you're going to have to do is wait for an announcement."

The wait will be over soon. A concert business source confirms to Rolling Stone the band is planning 18 concerts in North America this year. Billboard also reported yesterday the band will play "fewer than 20" dates in North America in the first half of 2013, with Australian promoter Paul Dainty and Virgin music promoting the tour (the team also promoted the '50 and Counting' run.) It would be the band's first tour since 2005-2007's A Bigger Bang, and, if the '50 and Counting' shows were any indication, the band is even more adventurous these days. Last year they performed with former members Mick Taylor and Bill Wyman, invited guests like Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck and played rarities like "Around and Around" and "I Wanna Be Your Man."

It's looking likely U.K. fans won't miss out on the Stones this summer. When MTV News UK asked Kasabian's Serge Pizzorno if his set at the Hard Rock Calling festival on June 29th will be the most talked-about performance of the weekend, he replied, "Yes, that would be a miracle because The Rolling Stones are playing Glastonbury. I can imagine there will be a lot of people there waiting for them."

No. By 'launch' it presumably means the opening night of the tour. They couldn't leave an announcement that late for concerts in May and June.

As I mentioned earlier, the band will be rehearsing in April.

Supposedly dates were going to be announced a few days ago, but its been delayed a little, so I guess its somewhat imminent.

Grrregory should be beating his chest and being generally annoying again in a matter of days, I think.

Doo'h

Must be a good chance of it. I'd expect that an 18-date tour starting on May 2nd would certainly continue into around mid-June (with a few breaks) before they take a couple of weeks off before Glastonbury (June 29 or 30)

Like I said before, theres one rumour that has them in Philly around the Memorial Day weekend (ie, just before May 27)

I'm not too excited because I dont expect too many NY area gigs since they already did that with 50 & Counting. Maybe Philly or Boston if they go the ususal way, but I dont think these are going to be the typical tour plans with so few shows. Should announce soon if they plan to sell out expensive seats! LET ME REMIND EVERYONE ~ at the Barclay Center, there were hundreds of unsold tickets the day of the show at the $750 price point. There were hundreds of fans (myself included) outside the venue willing to pay the $250 - $300 price point. They didnt drop the prices even after the show started so a bunch of us left outside were not happy. I imagine if they keep the prices at $750+ this scenario will repeat itself all over the country. Its a fvcking shame, they could of and should of dropped those tickets on show day just to sell out. But GREED is a nasty thing and I will not pay $750+ no matter what they do. No fvcking way. I think this may be the hold up, they must know people are not willing to spend that kind of bread.

If that was the case, there wouldnt be a hold up. Theyd simply have scrapped the whole thing. Delaying a ticket sale start date only makes it harder to sell the tickets in question.

I dont think any delay is worth being concerned about. Probably some minor logistical issues.

May 2nd is 8 weeks away. The London/NJ shows in late 2012 were only announced about 5 weeks before they took the stage at the 02.

Right again Gazza. In fact the Barclay Center was announced last, only about 4 weeks ahead and thats the show that didnt sell out. So they need 6 weeks or more to sell out the high priced tickets. All of the cheap seats sold out in seconds, all locations. 6 weeks till May 2 is March 21st. The first shows must be announced this month for sure, in less than 2 weeks.
