mickmask On the 4 Flicks DVD they where all asked what they would do in the upcoming year. The feeling I got was that they would continue to play until they drop. Sounds like they will do concerts but on a smaller scale than the 40 Licks tour. But the good thing is they will keep on a rockin!!

Boomy There will never be a new album from the Stones.

There will be huge tours, and next time the ticket prices will double, maybe even triple, meaning that only people 35+ will be going to there shows.

More people will be sitting in there seats instead of standing up, and it will be no different than attending an Elton John concert (except that the music will be better).

I think it's ridiculous how the Stones try to act like they are still catering to younger audiences. Fuck that. They most likely put Lizzie's and the Richards' daughters friends in front during those "Four Flicks" discs to make it look like they are still doing it for the kids. I know people at my school and other colleges who can't go to a Stones show because they have to pay rent, tuition, surcharges, etc., instead. And people wonder why some people like Jet, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, etc........

The reason it happens is because of the stupid people that HAVE to go to 20+ shows, forking over the money because they need to "get off". Why the hell do you need to see "Start Me Up" multiple times on a tour? Don't you have some rooms to work on in your house? How about your yard? Don't you need to re-sod it and make it look a little nicer? How about buying some clothes that don't have a tongue on them? Holy shit, $35 for a cheap cotton shirt that has Homer Simpson, Mick, and Keith on it? I know clothes are highly marked up in price, but for that material?

Hell, I can't understand it. I love the Stones, but I can't imagine going into credit card debt to see them.


See ya at ONE show. Later.

SHINE A LIGHT as far as "younger audiences "/ and young people deliberately placed in the front rows.....well, my husband and i are blessed in that we always have front rows ( we call it DFC....."dead f***ing center") and we're not exactly 16 anymore. thank goodness, wouldn't wanna be.
