I knew that number was coming...I was afraid it was going to break the site's formatting, lol.

I wonder how many people really believe that the "new" album will be released within their lifetime

"Unprecedented"

Nah it's the same 1000 IORR regulars who connected to the thread 1000 times each.

Some of them/us are very old so they sometimes forget they already browsed thru the thread earlier that day or that week.

Group hug !!

No one is claiming it was one million unique views by one million different individuals. Nevertheless, it's quite a milestone.

A milestone in terms of desparation, that is

Depends on their age. People in the under-30 age group are certainly entitled to some optimism.

Well, for sure. Now imagine this would have been a petition signed 1000000 times. (Don't think it would be more effective, though ...)

@colonial,

did you by chance take a screenshot of the exact 1,000,000 figure?

doitywoik... As a self-appointed stats person of most things Rock n' Roll it was all happening so fast for this Cat..with an accelerated viewing going on in the last 2-3 thousand views it sat on 999,999 for a few seconds then hit the big 1,000,000

Looking more like a 1,000,000 view conspiracy

It's only fair! Deadheads have their Cornell/Barton Hall Conspiracy theories for decades now, and finally the Stones fans have their very own New Album Thread Conspiracy! Was it Francis25 who started the thread and never officially revisited it but secretly spent the past three years boosting the views number? Was it the CIA experimenting with dedicated IORRians' minds? Does this thread exist at all or are the PTB playing arcane tricks on us while overtaking the world? - Food for thought ...

think its a tribute to bv & his site. i post on few other music sites & they are nowhere near the scale of this one. also not as well run for the most part.

doitywoik... Probably should be stripped of at least 10,000 views and sent off to the back pages in disgrace and merged with "Your Favourite Stones Conspiracy Theory" thread

No worries! Didn't catch the humor there!

Amazing - what a great site- I visit it every day. Greatest bunch of fans and may we not only have another Stones album, but a few more! Long Live The Rolling Stones - I'm almost 60 and they've been there with the sun and moon my whole life!

Ah, c'mon, a thread about a new Stones album clearly deserves a million views, it's about a new Stones album, after all! - Imagine a new album were on the horizon and nobody here cared ...

... care to share the story?

Something doesn't add up here - Seems to me that " Some Kinda Stones Connection" or "What are you listening to this very second"

would have more views they have been around for 10 years - I think

Chris Fountain...Rockman's "Some Kinda Stones Connection" was leading the way and looking like the first to a million views, but dropped back to 3rd place, mighty stork is next to join the "Million Views Club"

This should be folded into the original thread. It has more than 400 pages about an album that can never live up to expectations, if it's ever released. We must get to 500 pages, about nothing.

This is the first time I've saw this thread or heard about a possible new studio album. I must of been napping.

Have you heard anything? How it the album coming?

Is that the only thread to do 1 million? For some reason that seems a bit odd. Certainly there are some others that have done that.

Yeah, you missed all the exciting news we're discussing there!

God knows why. The last 8 or so have been pretty poor.

I must admid I visit IORR almost every day and the first one I check is the New Stones album trhead and the first couple of years I realy thought there would be real news in it, but that hope has gone for long.
Now I'm just curious what people have come up with, or if there is another quarrel about if there is first an Blue and Lonesome II album or one with new songs.

Imagine if someone new visits IORR and thinks he's maybe missing something important about the new album if he's not reading every page of that thread. Hahaha!

They can call the new album "Cobwebs" - if it ever comes out...

Okay... (ahem).

Well it's indeed the story of the 2 IORR regulars who wait for the gates to an Italian show to open in the 00's (say 2003 it was a kick-ass tour). They've both seen the band in the 60's so they're not really spring chickens plus there's a bit of Alheimer involved too.

The 1st fan asks : "what's the flavor you want?"
"Vaniiiilla!"
"You sure?"
"Yea I want vanilla!! What will you pick?"
"Mmmmm...chocolate, I guess..."

And off Choco man goes to the ice cream vendor...
