Now that's what I call detective work.
There's no hiding from the combined investigative power of the rolling stones fans. |

Yes! This is the confirmation.
Where is SERGI? |

I guess it is very official now! I bet on the rumoured short tour fall 2004, and something for all of us in 2005! |

Bon sang mais c'est bien sûr... Great thinking on Klaus's part. And this is proof again that Charlie is a great guy. Thanks, thanks, thanks.

I think the most interesting aspect of this news is that Charlie likes his tentet thangy -- yet, he bailed for the Stones -- that is very encouraging!!
I smell a fall tour -- either that or the Cod Au' Gratin I had for dinner last nite... |

I hate to be a wet blanket folks, but this doesn't mean anything yet. Reason to be optimistic for sure, but don't get that cart in front of the horse.
Patience is a virtue.
I'll get excited when I see the blimp thingy in NYC again. |
|
|
| Monkey Woman |
Yes, and it raises another question: what vehicle will they use to launch the next tour (when that happens, of course)? They did the truck, the car, the choo-choo, the yacht, the blimp... What's left? Helicopter? Submarine? Wait, not a submarine, that's for the Beatles! LOL |

Chiba Chariot! |
|
|
| Sir Stonesalot |
Oh man...a submarine would be soooooooo coooooool.
Can you imagine?
There you are down at the Port Authority, waiting around on the deck of the Intrepid, and SPLOOOSH! A big ol' sub with a big ol' Stones tounge breaches out of the waterThen, out of the sky swoops a flight of Hueys, blasting Midnight Rambler. One by one, each Stone is picked up offa the deck of the sub and delivered onto the deck of the carrier. They then announce to the world...the mission is accomplished!!! A new album and tour are ready for consumption!
Oh yeah. That would be sweet. |

It's too soon..they should wait until late 05 or I fear poor ticket sales. |
|
|
| LadyJane |
How about each Stone in a fighter jet arriving on the flight deck the USS Rocks Off!!
With all of us cheering them on!!!
LOL.

What will this tour be called? What will be the theme? The 40th anniv thing generated a lot of interest and will be tough to match.... |

The Rolling Stones No Theme Tour.
Chiba Chariot it is, Nanky.

They(Keith and Ronnie) seemed so out of it by the end of the last tour, it's hard to imagine that they will be ready again so quickly. |

There will not be a vehicle to launch the
next tour. That is over....at least for right
now. They have done a Truck, Train, Boat, Caddy, and Blimp. They don't want to look silly by trying something
that has been done to death. The Stones at 60
would go over better by being conservative with
the press conference vehicles for the year 2004. On Stage they can let it loose and do whatever but as for the big entrance at the press conference.....what are they supposed to do this time have the Stones come to a press conference by way of a the space shuttle? I think they could do a press conference for the tour and album but I don't think they will try and make a grand entetrance by some kind of vehicle anymore. We just seen that two years ago. It would seem overdone and semi-silly (even for The Stones)right now. A major press conference is fine without
the famous entrance. You could have the press conference at a neat location though.

Who cares about ticket sales? The important thing is whether you're in the audience or not.

I think that first will come the album this year with a heavy promotion and then the tour to promote the album because the press will kill the band if they tour without a new album again.

Who cares about the press, the press have "killed" the Eagles for decades and these guys are still selling out anything they want.
Please reread the Uncut Keith interview where he tells us in essence "we don't need to put out new songs to fill up stadiums and line our pockets with gold" and that seems to be what they're after these days unfortunately for those of us who got into the Stones for their music more than to watch them play sanitized music with a bunch of bland musicians like Chuck "plinky plonk" Leavell and Darryl "Where's Sting" Jones. |

No, I don't think it's that. I don't think the Stones are quite that trivial or cynical....except maybe for purely pr reasons. I mean if they're washed up as artists maybe they'd try to hide behind that sort of thing. Which I suppose is possible. But I don't think so. The real question is..are they washed up as artists? My guess is that they're just in no hurry. But time passes real quick. So it's time. The timing is right now. Those guys aren't going to let the Legacy go down the drain for a few extra bucks. No way Keith is too proud (and rightly so) to let that happen. He just wants to say "I told you so, you cocksucker" one more time.
