The tour resumes in Atlanta I hear.

It's Monday bitches...

Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, 74, has just bought himself a new home in London. I bet the neighbours’ curtains have been twitching. “I saw Mick [Jagger] here last week and Rod [Stewart] and Kenney [Jones] were here yesterday,” Wood enthuses. He is talking to me on Zoom from an art-filled room in his new place in Little Venice, west London. Upstairs is for painting. Downstairs he has set up a recording studio.

“Me and Mick have done nine new tracks for the [40th anniversary] re-release of [the Rolling Stones album] Tattoo You. And me, Rod and Kenney [the only surviving original members of Wood’s pre-Rolling Stones band the Faces] have been recording some new Faces music.”

The roof in Atlanta is wide open Ronnie...

" I will be on tour next summer, because it will be 60 years since they played their first show July 12, 1962 in London. They have booked dates in Europe next year. It makes sense to do something in London on their 60th anniversary. Also, if they need, they may do other locations.

The US dates are in the hands of the pandemic. It would be a high risk operation to tour US this fall, we will see what risk they are willing to take, economically as well as health wise, both for themselves and their fans.

MISS YOU Rolling Stones star Charlie Watts forced to pull out of American tour after emergency op in London hospital

ROLLING Stones drummer Charlie Watts has had to pull out of the band’s US tour after having an emergency op.

The 80-year-old legend had a “successful procedure” in London after a problem was found during a routine check-up.

https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/15782532/charlie-watts-out-of-rolling-ston...

Get well Charlie!

I hope Charlie gets better soon. There's always gonna be more gigs in the future

Oh man!  Great that Charlie's OK of course! Thank God for those pre-tour check-ups.

But what a hell of a year this one has been AS WELL.

I'll start to really believe the theory we jumped into a hellish parallel universe when Bowie died, because things have just been a rotting piece of junk since then.

Sorry for the fans who'll miss him on the tour, hope he can return soon enough!

Wish you a good recovery and good health Charlie.
Hope to see you With the Stones in Europe next year.

One Love
Jeroen

he missed a show in March 1964. The Stones had a week off before a show scheduled in Chatham, Kent and Charlie missed it as he was delayed getting home from a short holiday (presumably from the continent) due to bad weather. Mickey Waller (later of the Jeff Beck Group, and who had previously replaced Carlo Little in Cyril Davies' band a year earlier) filled in

If it was a permanent move, I'd agree - but it isn't.

They had gone to a lot of trouble to reschedule shows after an 18 month postponement and then this happened. I can understand the logic with going ahead with it as contracts are signed and crew have been hired, etc.  Its what - 13 shows? And its possible he may actually play some of them.

Worth remembering that they put off touring in Europe for a few months in 2017 when Ronnie was receiving treatment for lung cancer - but the shows hadnt been announced or put on sale so it didnt inconvenience anyone.

nope, sorry, there's no excuse.

they don't seem to care about their own legacy, nor about the fans. it's all about the money.

and if the stones play without charlie, it means keef has always been full of shit...

I don't remember that. I believe he said they may be able to without Ronnie, but not without one of the three originals. Besides, the out for him here is that he's temporarily out, not permanently so it's not the way the question was likely posed as most of those questions are asking basically: what if someone died.

As for Keith being full of BS, gotta agree with that a bit. He always says he can say nasty things about Mick, but he'll slit the throat of anyone else who does. Never heard him call out anyone who does that in public, and there have been plenty. Maybe he's done it in private, but I doubt it. That twat Ginger Baker, and a load of others. Never heard a word from Keith publicly.

I need some time to think.

Bad news about Charlie of course.  He is 80.  Cancel everything. Give refunds to those that want them. (Good Luck with that).  Glad I waited to see if tour was gonna be cancelled (For another reason of course).  Won't go to these shows if they happen.  Just not interested without the Master of the High Hat not being there.  Ridiculous. Call it a day and have SOME decorum.   Why so difficult to know when to hang it up?.  Setlist down to 15 songs....some guy behind the stage covering for Ron covering for Keith while Mick shouts instead of actually singing?....no thanks.  Bill leaving was a huge blow, and this does it.  And yea, this change would be permanent.  Think Charlie is gonna say a year from now "Let's go on the road!"...please.  It's done, over and out,  finished...enjoy what it was and what they gave you...

Fuck you.

Come on guys! Please

Thanks Rick!!

From Springsteen to ‘Letterman,’ Rolling Stones’ Touring Drummer Has Rich Musical History

Steve Jordan’s new gig filling in for Charlie Watts is just the latest in a decades-long career working with rock royalty

By DAVID BROWNE

Infact this guy obviously cares very greatly for the whole band and that is obvious. To me this guy sounds like a parent who would be punishing their child for running out in the street, they don't hate the kid obviously they're just scared for their lives.

This guy isn't trying to be negative he is actually scared of the negativity
And things going badly.

Probably should have saw this coming as the tour rehearsals are supposed to be in Allston, Ma. and they played a private show for Kraft and about 300-400 of his friends in a tent at Foxborough Stadium at the end of that US mini-tour five years ago.

Interestingly, the rest of the article (which is behind a paywall) says that the e-mail invite went out on July 23rd - which was the day after the rescheduled tour was announced.

so if we pay to see the stones, what exactly is defined as "the rolling stones" ?

i guess as long as Mick Jagger is there, the majority of the people don't care who is playing behind him ...?

I haven't been this pissed off since that covid virus a few years ago...

So many complaints! Do not buy tickets. Charlie is sitting out to recover. He's coming back.

If a band member isn't playing on a studio track, is it not a Stones song? There are numerous songs without Mick, Keith or Charlie over the years. Are they not Stones songs?

What constitutes a Stones song? Charlie's not on You Can't Always Get What You Want so I guess that's not a Stones song.

Nobody will get replaced permanently at this stage. They're in their late 70s/early 80's. It'll be the logical excuse to stop touring and/or disband. 

Its not like this is the Who or Queen and the remaining band members had most of their lives still ahead of them.

If health conditions permit it, they'll finish as a touring act after next summer IMO.  Three of the band have had serious health issues in the last two years. We're in the home straight now.

They will continue on. They must. They will.

Allston Mass that’s awesome, used to live near there. Sad that foxboro won’t get a regular show with there

Skipping this one dudes- I'm out. The covid bullshit, Charlie said fuck it... Give me a new album damn it!
Big event last night lots of people. Drunk people hanging all over me, crowded. I feel a little woozy. Slight sore throat. Probably caused by getting wet in rain. Exhausted- slept till 3. I'm in good shape and active and all.

I feel floaty Ronnie

IORR what a laugh, you'd think that might sound like a reasonable suggestion.. But there's no way that air would stop the spread of anything in a realistic scenerio infact it would probably spread it even more especially if it were a "circular tornado or hurricane effect" that could easily pick up just about anything and blow it at the band. And if you're going to get that in depth with it everyone on stage would also need one of the "wind shields" between themselves to. However it would be more likely to become a mass of interlacing air spreading just about whatever it wants. But, there is a such thing in the world of mushrooms.. Or how do I say working with the transference of any microscopic matter/bacteria whereas the person working on this has something called a flow hood. This works almost the opposite way of what they are explaining, and it is less about the air flow but more about the heat. To invisibly and realistic reduce the spread of any microscopic germs the stage would need to have extremely hot air flowing downward from the top of the stage.. And then having another set of fans blowing outward into the audience. Again this would be very hot air, so in the case of it working at all the audience would have to be placed several more feet away from the stage or where ever the hot air doesn't directly touch. If the band and audience didn't want to be on fire between this it is obvious air conditioning could be on the stage and on the other side of this heat barrier in the other atmosphere of the building. In the case of being outside, good luck. It would probably be sweltering hot no matter what.

Do you mean, do you mean some type of an air filter?

If we go that route we must change the name of the tour, no?
