Eh? They've done precisely that for the most part since 2002.
Licks was a nostalgia tour. ABB was basically (after the first few months when they made a half decent effort to promote the new CD) part 2 of the stadium part of the Licks tour. 40 Licks was the biggest selling Stones album in decades - so after years of insisting they were still a current band (and to their credit doing a good job of it by promoting that material in concert) they feel that the nostalgia market is the path to pursue.
No reason to assume that a new tour will be anything different. Ronnie commented before the Licks tour that maybe on the theatre shows, theyd showcase an entire album in full, like Exile. It was never going to happen.
Exile was never one of their biggest selling records, and Mick doesnt even like it that much. There's as much chance of the Stones performing that album in full as there is of Brian Jones rejoining the band on the next tour.
Spot on.Funnily enough LIB,SF and SG could be done easily as many of the songs on them are played regularly.They wont do it of course
...that they don't even think about it; it would be disastrous. like others have chimed in - it's not even in the realm of possibilities, anyway....

Playing "Exile" beginning to end on the rumoured 2010 Tour?

Just read that Aerosmith is going to play Toys in the Attic in its entirety on stage on their tour. The Stones are rumored to go on Tour in 2010 and Universal Records is going to release Exile On Main Street at the end on his year. How much of a selling point covering "Exile" in its entirety on stage could be? If they brainstorm ideas and come up with a good concept for a stage and a show built around that great record that could be something exciting. What do you think?

They will never do it. It's going to be another "greatest hits" tour.

Not enough hits on Exile for th general public. It could be awesome for us, the hardcore fan base, though.
What are the chances of the Stones again touring without new material?

Would they really tour without anything new to present and by doing so accept the fact that 'The Stones' now definately are a oldies act?
I guess you're right, but I'm still hoping for that final masterpiece, the Stones version of 'Time Out Of Mind' so to speak...

Exile is a great record because the song writing is very good and it happens that the stones unfocused and chaotic times they were in while recording the album produced a collection of songs done in a diversity of musical styles, pretty much exploring the roots of American popular music. That would be great if the Stones could tour and emphasize that their long career allowed them to develop a liking for different genres of music.That is their great legacy, I think.

Just want to see his face, casino boogie, stop breaking down, shake your hips, turd on the run, sweet black angel, ventilator blues, soul survivor? Think Richards & Wood will get a heartattack even THINKING about playing those tunes!!! Would have loved to hear them play those songs live tho ...... about 35 years ago when the should have performed them. And yes, I know they played Angel & Ventilor in 1972, and even then it wasn't easy on them. But it could have been with some more practice!

TSMR? And have to sit through a live version of Gomper? Hell no - give me anything from the 1980s on...
Oh yeah. Hell no they're not gonna play Exile. They'll do maybe 2 songs from it - the usual.
Tired huh.

Hmm, why not? If I would have told some of you in summer 2001 that the band is preparing a tour where they play 3 different setlistst, 99% of the fans would have said: ridiculous idea. They never do this.
Like Mick sometimes says on stage: hmmm, you'll never know.
Let's wait, hope and pray.

they should do a massive stage recreation of Nellcote and hire all remaining original players to do Exile (sorry Ronnie)
hire Robert Frank to photograph/film it
let Anita/Marlon wander around the stage as they do the show - return to all relationships of the era, Bianca, etc.
that i'd pay for - stage seat even

Well it is a concept that is catching on. I am slightly intrigued by Aerosmith playing all of TITA. But even if by some miracle the Stones decided to play an album in it's entirety live (and they won't). Logistically,Exile is too long to do that anyway. If they did want to get ambitious and try it (and they won't). Sticky Fingers or Let it Bleed might be easier to pull off.(but they won't).

Agree, but in all fairness, they have played three of those tracks live before. I think they´re able to do it.

I don't want to hear nothing, but 40 year old songs AGAIN. How would an all Exile show be that much different than the last couple of tours where they played almost nothing but pre 1980 material?
I would prefer a new album + a tour that shows off that
album along with some of their newer (Voodoo,B2B,AB
music with a few warhorses + covers thrown in here and there to keep the general audience happy.
I am convinced that the Stones could still make a great latter day album (that they would be proud to play) if they had the right producer. You can easily see where their last several albums (all very solid) could have been great if someone had the balls to tell them no in the right places.
Instead of the tired stadium shows I would prefer that they play arenas + theatres.
It would be sad to see the Stones offically make themselves an oldies band. Especially when they are still capable of some very solid new music.
Granted, none of this is likely to happen, but if it were left up to me that is how I would do it.
The Stones need to take a different path this time out. They have essentially been doing the same exact thing since 1989.

Yes i would also prefer them to tour behind a new album
I also dont see them doing a 2 year tours anymore, more like selected dates
in short burst.Time is not on there side, much more sensible to work
3 months then a break then so on.All i want to see really is new songs,
i can do without anymore greatest hits tours, but i stil love erm.

- without Mick Taylor? Why bother?
Just read that Aerosmith is going to play Toys in the Attic in its entirety on stage on their tour.
That was Whitford's idea. Aeosmith has all the same members and the guitarists are as good or better than they were when they recorded Toys. Both Whitford and Perry can play rings around either Keith or Woody. I'd love to see Aerosmith do the whole Toys or Rocks record, live. With the Stones and Exile, no.

I don't think that they must tour behind new material.If they don't feel inspired enough to go into the studio they have no reason to do another record.The fact is that they have a lot of great songs they can tour with.At this point of their career it would be much more creative to try playing some of neglected classic songs than making yet another album that doesn't add much to their legacy.
I think that playing Exile in its entirety is a wonderful idea which would certainly add a whole different feel to their show.They may not be able to recreate the magic from the early seventies but I'm pretty sure that the new versions of Exile songs would be performed competently enough for all of us to enjoy the show and have yet another invaluable Stones experience.

Whitford (Aerosmith) brought up the concept of playing Toys or Rocks in their entirety because of the boredom/routiness of playing all the 'Smith 'warhorses' every single show. I am not sure how a Stones show without 'warhorses' would please the, what, 50-75% of seat-fillers who are only there because all they know are the warhorses. Plus, the Stones aren't good enough anymore to play these Exile songs (Wood and Keith, anyway) very well; secondly without Wyman on bass they won't 'swing' properly', and without Taylor playing his parts, there's no use in bothering with it anyway. Aerosmith is still intact as per the 70s and Whitford and Perry play Toys and Rocks stuff better now than they did in the 70s when they were smacked out to high heaven.

I'm not going to assume that they'll do something diferent. But I think it's possible that they will seing as though the last two tours were nostalga tours. I'm sure they are aware of that and might make a concious effort to take things in a different direction this time out. But as far as Playing all of EOMS, I doubt they would do it.

The thing is; is there $$$ in such a project? On one hand they don't have to go in the studio because the record is already there, but how much "Exiles" can they sell with a tour pushing the greatest double album in rock music? Jagger doesn't seem to agree that Exile is a great record, and that is a problem.
