No , what they should do is make sure that young Jacky gets front row seats off of an Internet Pre-sale .

$1000 per seat. They need to price at the market level. |

i won't mind if they stopped touring, cos maybe we get all that stuff the beatles release, I'd like that.
But we all know the stones never stop touring, at least Keith won't! |

We are in a pretty lucky spot. If the Stones call it a day, sooner or later, we are to get all the gems released, drip fed, every Christmas for decades. I drool at that prospect. But, until then, we get to see them live and maybe even squeeze a new cd or 2 out of their ever shrivelling brains. It's win-win. Am i right in saying they played to about 5-6mill during VL? 3.4mill is a great figure for any band, and as some one on this thread said, considering all the theatre and medium size arena shows. Pretty impressive that they hold the top 2 spots for tour $$$$$$$. I am just dreading the next U2 tour. If those bastards ever get close, i will scream like a virgin srtipper at a bucks night. |

I just read a post somewhere that stated that Mick doesn't really like making records anymore. He thinks it's too demanding and he doesn't like the overall feel of it. Seems as though this was published in some magazine.
Well, if that's the case, why force an album out? If you are not determined to make new music, don't do it, it's as simple as that. Why release an album for the sake of releasing?? Just to tour behind a product? BullS*#T!!!

Because soemtimes you just have to squeeze shit out. A biological imperative. |

because if they don't put new songs out they become a nostalgia (sp?) act like the Beach fucking boys..I hate to see the Stones go out like that.. |

I beg to differ. The Stones are a nostalgia act, but there is nothing wrong with that, IMO. What current "working band" charges up to over 300 smackers for top notch seat?? Nostalgia acts do this!!!
Hell, I want them to make an album, but how good could it be if Mick isn't thrilled with making one? You think someone would give him a kick in the butt and tell him to forget about "Goddess In the Doorway"? It seems like he's only interested in how it will sell, and not how it will stand the test of time. |

They don't have to worry about standing the test of time. Their huge discography & record-setting tours combined with their antics over the years guarantee that. And even 40 Licks had 4 new ones on it. Yes, they're a bit of a nostalgia act but not completely - yet. |

You got a point. They'd still sell, because some people are stupid.
But, then the crowd would just be filled with rich, snobby 40+ year olds.
Sounds like fun, don't it!!! |

But then Boomy, they'd be able to lower the ticket prices for larger shows. As one of those 40 year olds, I'd certainly spend big bucks for that sort of show. |
