Congratulations Corgi and Daethgod, as well as our other Aussie friends. Young Jay admire and respect the Aussies for their true admiration and loyalty for the great Rolling Stones. Also, Bon Scott (RIP hero), Young brothers, Phill Rudd and Cliff Williams belong to this beatiful, pleasant country.
God bless them! |

thanks pam - I suppose it's "tingling" -it's a funny mixture of elation and at the same time a weird little touch of dread (funny as that sounds) - you know - will i get tickets - will i get a good seat
this stones fanaticism - it does have all the hallmarks of a serious psychological illness |

i guess i will - it really depends on whether oor not there will be a theatre show - i'd probabaly be happy to be a normal "punter" for arena |

It seems that Corgi is dancing in the street with this news, congrats. |

Dancing frigging naked!
And, i just got a new credit card (my 5th) with $5,500 limit. That should easily account for 2 tickets for wifey and me.
I wonder if that "on-stage" thing will happen here?
I hate this time period though. I hate it until its confirmed. In fact, i hate it until i have my tickets. No, i hate it until the night arrives. No, i only like it when the show is over, so then i know i have seen them. Then, i can relax.
But, arena or stadium? Doubt they'll do MCG. PRobably both Telstra Domes (syd & Melb).
But, if its arena, thats cool, and its Rod Laver all the way! Where they played last time, and where the Eagles smashed all records (including their new dvd which is smashing records and was recorded at Rod Laver).
It's just gotta be true. I deserve it.
Daeth - Meet ya at the Depot! |

Hey Corgs
i hear its the Arena, was in Herald Sun today , but the press could be talking out of their guessing arses :
Stones jump back to Melbourne
Nui Te Koha
28jul05
THE Rolling Stones will rock Melbourne in April – 40 years after they first appeared here.
An Australian tour was confirmed yesterday by the band's record label, Virgin.
Stones world tour promoter Michael Cohl has offered a limited date run in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.
Paul Dainty, the band's Australian promoter, is still firming up performance dates.
The Stones will tour the world to promote their new album, A Bigger Bang – their first studio album in a decade – to be released in September.
A new single, Streets Of Love, will go to radio stations this week.
Stones guitarist Keith Richards said yesterday the band had a lot more to give.
"We are not doing this for nothing," Richards told the Herald Sun.
"And when I say nothing, I don't mean money.
"You couldn't buy (drummer) Charlie Watts if he didn't want to do it. There is passion, but nobody in the band talks about it in terms of passion or a quest.
"We don't need to. It's either there or it isn't.
"This is not a matter of regurgitating or nostalgia.
"Somewhere inside us all there is a feeling that, yeah, there is a lot more to be found out yet."
He said the British band endured because they paced themselves.
"You can't do this if we don't get along. It's like, 'How are you feeling today? Can you hit the high C? How's the knee?'."
The Australian visit was strongly tipped when the Stones put New Zealand on a world tour schedule earlier this year.
Virgin Records said yesterday the Stones would perform 35 US dates, then tour South America, the Far East, New Zealand and Australia.
Ticket prices in the US will range from $A90 to $450.
The tour, titled Onstage, opens in Boston on August 21.
The Stones will bring their arena production to Australia and New Zealand.
But the possibility of smaller-scale theatre shows is likely to be discussed.
According to Virgin Records, the new Stones album comprises 16 tracks and is an ambitious, wide-ranging collection of hard-hitting, high-powered rock and blues.
The Stones first toured Australia in January 1965. Their last visit was 2003 when their 40 Licks show, essentially a greatest hits set, sold out three nights at Rod Laver Arena. |

yeah Daethgod - without wanting to rain on anybody's parade i must echo corgi's post - i'll not be relaxed about this til i have the ticket in my hand - at least ... tho once venues are CONFIRMED i'll breathe easier
it's more than once that a tour of Aus. has "been announced" only for it to fall through - i remember back in '75 they were "definitely" coming but of course never did
having said that the signs are obviously good but my guess is the deal has not gone down for sure and certain just yet
once dainty announces a date for tix to go on sale - then i'll believe it's happening |
|
|
| Daethgod |
yer same dude
i cant relax until i have my tix in my hands , and they better be good ones !

But, isnt it amazing. A bunch of old codgers make page 3 of the nations largest selling paper. Not just a small item, but 1/2 the bloody page!
Aint heard boo about U2's tour at all. Not 1 thing.
The one good thing about all this is that the album will be long out by the time the tickets go on sale. So, people will know the new stuff, and know it just aint a greatest hits thing.
But, and i just thought of this, is Auckland a stadium show? Cause if it is, i just might mosey on over to N.Z. I have thought all along they wouldnt bring a stadium show here. Just too expensive. So, it will be interesting to see.
Also i was alarmed to see "Streets of Love" stated as the 1st single. Man, that could halt sales of the album in its tracks. |
