Well, I didn't expect a spokeswoman to say anything other than a vague "we'll let you know when we'll let you know". It's not like she'd analyze it for us, they've never been known to do so in the past.

I'm sure it's just some business glitch that needs to be worked out. Since they've come so close to announcing the tour, it's not like they're gonna call everything off at the last minute.



Correct. It won't. But for them to suggest no announcement was scheduled is nonsense.

No in depth reasons are necessary, their business arrangements aren't anyone else's concern.

But a simple acknowledgment that there's been a delay with some idea about a possible timeframe isn't a big ask.

I doubt they'd even have issued that statement at all only for a few media outlets bombarding them

I absolutely agree Gazza, that's true. But I didn't have such expectations to begin with, given their spokespeople always tend to dissapoint when it comes to announcements or statements.

No kidding. They asked for an email and zip code just for random purposes? Suuuuure.

Maybe they were going to announce the tour in a PC with drones. Maybe they weren't programmed correctly and went to cities not on the tour itinerary, giving people false hope of a show Sad

Big fvcking deal, the prize is you get to make an announcement.  It means nothing unless they give you a ticket to get in the door! Oh, you can win a trip for 2 to an undisclosed location. How about a known location to a Stones Concert! That's what we want!

It's a Theo-y Thursday. But presumably there's a Tour-y / Ticket-y Tuesday upcoming.
Nothing wrong with a bit of breath-baiting and billboard jiggery-pokery, shirley?
Perhaps there have been delays in trouser tailoring.

Thinking...Maybe it was an insurance thing again...No Taylor , no tour.
Now they have to suck up to Taylor, pay him more than $500/night...

He was the reason the tour got insured the last leg...they needed a back up for Keith and his health issues. Bobby Keys can get subbed w/o a problem...Keith? Not so easy...Taylor is the key here I suspect. i hope he finally gets all he deserves and more.

Is that really the name of this tour? How long before someone says "Justa Kiss Away Your Money"? Oh-oh...I just did...

Shit! I am now getting loopy waiting for this announcement BS...

Doesn't kiss away mean good bye?

kiss away

Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus.
kiss something away (from something)
to kiss something and make something bad go away, such as tears, grief, pain, etc. She kissed the tears of pain and disappointment away from her son's face. She kissed away his tears. She kissed the tears away.

He was the reason the tour got insured the last leg...they needed a back up for Keith and his health issues. Bobby Keys can get subbed w/o a problem...Keith? Not so easy...Taylor is the key here I suspect. i hope he finally gets all he deserves and more.


I would very much doubt insurance clearance would be something thats still an issue at this stage of planning the tour. That would surely have been ironed out some time ago.

I honestly think this delay isn't really a big deal and isn't worth people getting worked up about. Its annoying and somewhat amateurish in the way its been handled, but I'd bet its really just a few loose ends being tied up. I'm sure they'll be very anxious now to hurry this along - everyone concerned with selling and promoting the tour stands to make a lot of money and its not in their best interests for things to be held up for much longer.

I enjoy the typos on that Kiss Away website. The internet has made designers lazy.

I'm not surprised that the tour announcement wasn't today. They are building up a database of zip codes to see where the fans are. All this bullshit was to compile information and market the upcoming tour right into our in box.

Thinking...Maybe it was an insurance thing again...No Taylor , no tour.
Now they have to suck up to Taylor, pay him more than $500/night...

Yeah Gazza. But such a buffoonish way to handle it. How about just a generic, we're touring the US in 2015 announcement? Details to come soon. This was a fustercluck from start to finish. They did what they usually do. Successfully control and direct the hype. Only to be left with egg on their face at the last minute. Who's the tour promoter, Bibi Netanyahu?  Nolte - The Rocks Off patron saint you made a grown man cry

Exceptionally funny comment... I'm ROTF LMAO. Wink

A.  They're not the only band to turn their tour announcement into a "fustercluck (!) " as U so eloquently put it.

B. At least The Stones have a bonafide TOUR, bro.
:-D

Maybey they put a hault to things so Keith could finally put out that solo record .. .. ...

(sorry ... I counldn't resist ... )

Anyway, in seriousness I have to agree with Gazza. Insurance issues would most likely of needed to have been ironed out well before this...

Ian and Gazza are probably right. My thoughts were more like "what if"...but after the fiasco of the lawsuit and L'Wren's death and Jagger heading to the shrinks couch, (nothing wrong with that), It would only take one lawyer to raise half an eyebrow for the insurance company to say "WHOA...let's take a look at this again..."

But who knows, right? Probably some college intern who screwed something up...
