I haven't been on this board much but I'd like to know what's going on with The Stones currently. I've heard rumors on a continuation of the tour and a new album. Any truths? I hope they go on tour again. I've never seen the Stones in concert before and they're probably not going to tour that much more since they're not getting any younger. Anybody know what's going on with The Stones right now? Any and all help is well appreciated.
Rock On,
Toast960
p.s. I heard a HORRIBLE rumor that Britney Spears covered the song "Satisfaction". Please tell me that it's not true. |

And now for a useful response Toast, there are rumors that the tour will continue with more North America arena shows in early 2004, but as of now its all speculation with no word from the band, so I wouldnt bet on it yet. Concerning the new studio album, the odds are much better. Ronnie and Keith have both been documented in interviews talking about the 2002 summer sessions in which as many as 25 tracks have been basically laid down. Ronnie even said that the album could be completed on the road if necessary. I don't think we will see it before the Licks Tour ends, or in the event that the shows continue in 2004, the album would probably be released during the short break to support the tour. Otherwise, I think we will definitely see it within a few months after the tour is over. Probably early 2004. |

First off let me say before I'm accused of it, I guess I am in no position to make such assumptions but, I think you're kidding yourselves about a new Stones album. I think Bridges, as far as official studio releases was it folks. I sincerly hope I am wrong, and I am sure Woody & Keith will continue to work together, but I think this will be The Rolling Stones swan-song-40 Licks, w/ Don't Stop & the other two new tracks. I'm sure there will be the usual official 'LIVE' album, and videos to mark the tour, but sadly I think we've had the last full length album from The Glimmer Twins. But as I say, it is only my opinion, an uninformed one at that, and I hope I am wrong. But having said that, I for one wont feel sad if that turns out to be the case, after all, they have given me a lifetime of listening, reading, and emulating(trying), pleasure, and there will never be another Stones. |

I think your wrong on this Gypsy. The band themselves have said they have new tracks on the go for a new cd. Jagger has even said on this tour when introducing Dont Stop "Here is a song from our next album". I am not sure on the dates of this tour, but if their is a bit of a break between U.S., Oz and Europe, i think some more news may flow through. But i really dont want, and will not buy, another bloody live album. Live DVD of all 3 sets? Yep, sure will, but not another live album, the world is in enough trouble without another. |

You're nearly as bad as the people who've been saying they'll never tour again---for the past 25 years....The Stones will last at least one more decade, and there will be more studio albums...how dare you think otherwise

I don't know about that comment Mick makes, Corgi.
When I saw them in Chicago, Mick just said "Here's a song from Forty Licks...this one's called Don't STop."
I once thought they would not release a new album, but it just seems like they will, and I believe they will.
