With the upcoming tour, the new album, the articles, and of course the 4 numbers we`ve been already heard, I begin to getting nervous.
Never thought it will be ever happened to me, because i`m allready 40 years old, and i see allot of things in my life, and following the stones active from the age of 11 or 12 years old, I still be nervous when i see them.
How is that with you folks?

Nervous in what sense? I'm a little older than you, & the Stones have been a big influence/part of my life since age 11 - 12, too.

To follow everything, staying on the internet for wayyy past bedtime :-), just get chickenspot, or something when i here the new numbers feeling the adraline to my whole body.

More interested in the new record than the new tour for various reasons, mostly down to the novelty of the band actually producing new material (in addition to which, based on what I've heard so far, sounds promising)

The tour's less exciting than last time for me because it seems to be preodominantly a stadium type tour, which makes for less interesting shows. The fact that the band have changed their mind about smaller venues hasnt helped.

I have a bigger pulse every time I go to a show. Just as I walk towards the venue my heart starts beating faster and I know I am in for something special. Every time. There is no cure for it, except for attending the actual show. And then I am fine. Always.

Hi,
welcome in the Club Wild_horse_pete
that`s why you and me and most of the others on this forum are Hard-Core stones fans...
See you on the BIGGER BANG tour....formerly known as the ONSTAGE tour.
salar

Yes,

I'm with Bjornulf on this one. I just get such a rush in the build up to when they actually explode onto the stage, that I could see it again and again and again. As for "what do I feel" ?? Well, having just booked my flight from London to NY and having heard from a friend yesterday that she had managed to get us great seats for the Albany show, I am currently in Rolling Stones heaven. A week in NYC and three shows in six days !

For me it is seeing tour announcements in the newspapers,by the Stones themselves, when I saw the article in a USA Today as I was walking down the street, back before the Licks tour, I immediately smiled, then just broke out laughing, saying to myself, 'Yes! All Right!!' and that smile was there the rest of the day. although nobody but other hardcore Stones fans will understand.
at that time I wasn't aware of this board, but it wasn't long before I found it.
So now, one can know of the Stones' moves before the general public, thanks to IORR!
I look forward to all the new articles, interviews, journalism pertaining to the Stones, etc...oh, not to mention the new disc, and the shows!
thanks!

Back of my hand

WILD HORSE PETE, that is precisely WHY we're called HARD CORE FANS because like you and BJORNULF, I get nervous before a tour starts, so much so that it disturbs my sleep! On opening night I'll be a nervous wreck, walking in I'll be a mess! It's like I tense up because I want them to be perfect and knock the critics on their asses and I take it REAL PERSONAL should a critic say an unkind thing about MY BAND! My heart " beats louder than a big base drum" just before the FIRST SHOW is about to start, and actually before all Stones shows! It is not something we can explain to non-fans, so don't even try. My boyfriend and best girlfriend are set to have me committed! They're jealous becausethey don't have one thing that they're that passionate about and they DO KNOW that they're missing out on a big thrill.

Mixed Emotions

By now, I'm getting more nervous with every day. It's only 18 days till tourstart - first thing in the morning when I enter my shop, I pull off a sheet from my tour-countdown-calender, giving my ladies a warm "good morning, only 18 days left" smile. Next thing, put in the CD with the 4 new songs and listen (to be repeated during the whole day). Shop window decoration is ready (Stones items from my collection, some exotic flowers, Sir Mick dummy, dressed in black leather, Stones tongue made of flowers..)
18 days from now - Boston we're coming!!!!!!!
