Yes those are the 2 rumoured Hyde Park dates trending now, June 25 and July 3.
The festival and Pit shows are getting too rough! Both me and my friend were knocked down to the ground last year!
These field shows are so fan un-friendly. Especially for a fanbase thats getting older.
Saying that, I was in the pit (Dublin) and Golden Circle (Twickenham) (both thanks to good fortune in the Lucky Dips) in 2018 and it was all good.
Paying silly money to stand a quarter of a mile away in a field to see a Charlie-less Stones will be a hard sell, personally.
Look at us...we have matured (aka getting old) and have moved from complaining about the set list, to complaining about the venues, LOL
However, AGREED...The Stones have played a few shows over the last few years at some (IMO) horrible venues...examples that come to mind...Some former air field on July 4 2017 (Poland?), The race track in Austin last year, the Indy 500 track, Desert Trips...Some park in Rome, Moncton, NB, CA ( I think that was festival seating) and even the Copacabana...Call me old or whatever, but they just dont sound fun for anyone not within 100ft of the stage setup...at least a football/football stadium has a concept of organization, and the PIT, at least in the US have a few folding seat for those who need or lucky enough to claim hours before the show...
