So it´s out now: Concerning the touring, it´s over. Keith´s (bad) shape
is the reason to postpone a tour instead of using the ´50´ as a chance to
sell tickets when the media attention is the highest. The public will
celebrate their 50th THIS year. But the Stones will say: No, it´s next year?
Haha.

The 50th anniversary is 2013, not 2012. Didn't you read the article carefully? Charlie joined in 1963, and 1963 plus 50 equals 2013. What is your problem, other than your difficulty with mathematics?

We have no proof that Keith is very sick. He could be better than he has ever been. What we may have is another Keith Basher (and there are many of you here), who secretly wish that Keith cannot continue to function as the most important Stone in the Stones. This negative reasoning has always baffled me. Remember, Keith and Mick write all the songs. If there are no new songs, then there is no Rolling Stones. If there are no Stones, then there will be no 50th anniversary tour.
Can someone else weigh in and help me with this? If my reasoning is faulty, say so.

I think we just need to listen carefully to the new CD, when it is released. We can then decide if Keith has it or not. I am hopeful it is as good as ABB, because I actually enjoy ABB. I hope it is very different from their seventies work, and reflects the musical ideas of this age.

I don't care what the T shirts say. If Charlie joined the group in 1963 as he said he did, then the fiftieth anniversary is 2013.
1963 + 50 years=2013
Case closed.

To those of you who believe in a new album and a tour: in all kindness, how do you imagine the album to sound if anything Keith Richards has been playing in public recently makes his playing on ABB sound virtuoso? How do you imagine a concert if Keith simply has to remember at least 15 songs? Is it a good idea to continue?

So essentially Licks 2002 was the conception tour and Licks 2003 was the anniversary tour.

Everyone who agrees with their new theory of "starting 1963" is an idiot.
