Topic: Aussie rumour says tour is off Return to archive Page: 1 2
11th May 2006 07:19 PM
Daethgod Was reported this morning that Stones sources had informed a radio host that the Europe tour will be cancelled.
Hope its not true, but the radio host is a Stones fan and said on air that a Stones contact had told him the news.
Any Aussies hear it on 3AW Rumour File this morning ?

jb This is very sad news,,,,hopefully we will get the mini tour in the fall. With heartfelt sympathy to our Euro posters...

glencar Joshy, it's only a rumor. Pass it on.

polytoxic Sadly, I believe this will prove to be more than a rumour.

I just think keith was very frail bfore this, and it will be amazing to see how he could get back on stage so quickly...I also fear even less playing know and we need Blondie more than ever(also Mick T)...and this is the perfect way to get him back.....makes sense!!!
12th May 2006 12:52 PM
gimmekeef C'mon jb...Keith either plays 100% or he'll know its over..No Mick T (lead guitar anyway..)...and no behind the curtains Blondie stuff either...I'm nervous like you about where Keith's health ends up...but we're all speculating way too much...

Saint Sway J.D. dubs Keith's parts, not Blondie.

If that's true, then "J.D." is not doing a very good job on this tour

polytoxic Keep yer shirt on, I acknowledged it is a rumour at this point in time but I believe that it will be proven to be more at a later date.

As it stands right now i've heard people working on tour are in a state of limbo. Nobody knows for sure what's going on.
It's uneasy for everyone involved. There is a tenative start date for early-mid June but it is not in any way confirmed. If the uncertainty continues, then eventually a hard decision will have to be made.

This was a lot worse at the start then people realise but maybe it's getting better now, I'm not sure.
So perhaps I'm being pessimistic when I should be optimistic.

But we'll know soon enough.

By the way, I thought Pierre was Keith's tech.
And far as I know, Blondie only plays guitar on stage and not behind it, although he and Bernard and Lisa were underneath the stage at the superbowl singing backup.
