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.

understood.

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.

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

JazzFest has been rescheduled due to the growth of new covid-19 cases in the New Orleans area.

Details here :

https://www.nojazzfest.com/

The festival will now take place April 29 - May 8, 2022

The tickets for Wednesday October 13 (the date the Stones were scheduled to perform) are automatically being refunded, so that Stones gig is officially cancelled.

Some Guy to miss Rolling Stones Tour.

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 Lips Sealed

You can't make thise stuff up...
Those maniacs at IORR have solved the COVID issues for the tour...or at least they are working on it.:

person #1:

maybe the band can separate and protect themselves from the audience with a giant protective shield of plexiglass at the foot of the stage

Person #2:

Not plexiglass - but air curtains, integrated into the foot of the stage (blowing upwards) .

Person #3:

Some of the stadiums are enclosed, so the air curtains could cause a circular tornado or hurricane effect of germs circulating even more rapidly throughout the stadium.

person #4:

Good stadiums or arenas should have exhaust ventilation systems to prevent such spreading and they could absorb the air from the air curtains.

Back to #2:

OK - instead of mask mandates (or maybe in addition to), all stadiums should be required to have massive air curtains with proper exhaust ventilation systems to thwart the spread of disease.

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.

I am guessing that the last date to request refunds is the same for all the non-rescheduled shows.

The date I was given by TM was Aug 21.

Its coming up fast.
So. if it applies to you, request those refunds NOW! so you do not forget.

This has been a public service announcement (not with guitars, this time)

TICKETMASTER has loads of tickets available for every show. I just went to see how many tickets are available for Atlanta and there are so many, so I checked every venue - plenty of unsold tickets everywhere. Many people suffered financially because of the virus, and the ticket prices are too high for the average concertgoer. People are avoiding crowds. Every show is an easy ticket at this point.

In light of the recent saddening news...to cancel or not to cancel NF 2021???

Charlie was recovering (reportedly) to rest for "60 Licks".
At this point, any shows next year will be a mere shell of the band, IMO.
This tour, now, will be exactly that.
The date to request refunds has already passed.
It all just sucks.

IF it goes on, they should redesign at as total tribute to Charlie. Drop the 'No Filter' banner, strip things down and really hone in on the core magic of the band.

If they want to get emotional and honest at the first show should it go ahead, the opener should just be Mick, Ron and Keith (or even more symbolically, just Mick and Keith) seated, no other musicians playing, and they do "No Expectations." Then they slam into a full band "Not Fade Away."

Dig up some of the old blues tunes, some Chuck covers, rock up one of his fave jazz tunes (maybe not). For the first time in a long time, the band is truly being challenged, and if they rise to this occasion, it would be an utterly perfect way to honor Charlie and end the band with dignity.

I agree with Egon at this point.

However, I can see them doing a nice tribute show in London next year, after the Big annual board meeting...as they will need to redo a few legalities etc...

Maybe a few fellow drummers coming to do a few songs with the band...etc

End it now. A special show in London next year with Bill, Mick T and various special guests. Keith, Mick and Ronnie have other projects to keep them sane.

Of course I don't know what will be the decision, but if it would be in my hands my decision would be do the booked shows and make a deserved tribute to Charlie on those shows, then never tour as The Rolling Stones, never, Make the official announcement "it's all over"

BTW... apparently a big tribute to Charlie by various artists will be done at the end of the year

My initial reaction was the same as most: call it a day. I want the last public image of them together to be of them bowing on stage in 2019. However, we should keep one thing in mind. If Charlie explicitly requested that they tour, that may weigh on their minds as they won't want to ignore that and look like they are ignoring that request both for themselves as well as his family and other loved ones. Not as clear cut as I even thought initially.
