The notion that at any time since a Bigger Bang a tour has been seriously considered is ridiculous. Every single solid piece of evidence has pointed against it.

So what you're saying is...there never has been a done deal. All these years.

Like, you know, Wow.

Well, it's nothing new, of course. All but one of us knew that all along.

I will tell you what is ridiculous, and that is the notion that some form of tour for the 50th anniversary year was never seriously considered since ABB. I will go one step further and say it was "a given" (In the minds of the band members) short of death or serious illness or injury to one of them that there would be some form of tour during the 50th anniversary year (July 12, 2012 through July 11, 2013) way back at the end of ABB. Having said that, I agree that there is no such thing as a "done deal" until the deed is done. Only in sixteen months (when all of this is in our rear view mirror) will we be able to consider saying "done deal".

Hey Stonescrow, you did read all of what Superrevvy said, right? Oh wait, did I just ask that? Obviously you didn't.

Hey Skippy, I read everything.

It's really no mystery. Why tour without an album to tour on? If you are going to go out in a blaze of glory you do it full throttle, not half ass. That is what is really going on here. Also probably hoping for some improvement in the economy before plunging in.

It didn't bother them on the last tour, touring without playing much of anything from the new record. They practically ignored it.

So a new record has no relevance to them touring or doing whatever it is they might do.

Not absolutely necessary, but preferable. There is a feeling of incompleteness to just tour without at least some new material.

Really love this photo of a two week old kitten. How anyone could ever hurt these creatures, I will never understand.

If in 49 years time it plans to tour and then doesn't its fan will be on their website forum tearing it apart !!

Stonescrow, the part you obviously missed is in bold:

The Stones may still do some shows, but the odds against are growing longer,
except for probably a club show in London on or about July 12, 2012, which they
need for the ending of the documentary. Small venue, blues standards, Taylor,
Wyman, maybe some other special guests, patterned generally on the White House
and Apollo shows.

As for the album, it will be a goody. 50 unreleased and new things, 3CDs.
Its basically already in the can, that's what Mick has mostly been working on
for the last few years. How many new things are on it depends solely on the
success of upcoming sessions, which will probably also include Taylor and
Wyman.

The only way we will get anything like a tour is if there is an unbelievable
resurgence in Keith and the band as a result of the upcoming recording sessions
and anniversary show, and if the market conditions for such a tour are
favorable next year. So its not completely out of the question, but it is
getting close to that.

(Before you start yelling, YES, all of the preceding has been fan fiction
by SupaRevy, who readily admits he has no special predictive powers.)

They have never had a conventional sense of timing/ocassion. But they almost always have been right when choosing the time to do things.

Also, lest we forget, there was this poster for the 50th that I published here
back in Sept of 2011. Notice that it does not contain the word tour. Just
shows and special events and souvenirs. Notice how low-key it is. Notice how
drawn-out the dates are. Notice also that, just like Keith, I made Charlie
of central importance...

also, since we're doing suparevy's greatest hits, who could forget this one?



but now let's turn back the clock a bit to get mick's take on what's happening,
specifically to the Juilliard announcement and mini-gig of 2005. Take a gander
at Mick's shirt...



(Note: I first wrote up a version of this back in 2005, so this too is a revvy's
greatest hits piece)

What Mick's shirt says (in mirror script) is:

"Curtains Torn, Stage Invasion, Guitars Broken, Mic Thrown, Drum K(it) Stolen,
It Must Be THE END."

This shirt by Dior is most famously associated with both Pete Doherty and
Lindsay Lohan. What Mick was announcing was an era of careers again shortened
and/or damaged by substance abuse (including prescription drugs). Lohan, Doherty
(and by association with Doherty, Amy Winehouse), Michael Jackson, Whitney
Houston, and most famously, The Rolling Stones.

Even in 2005, Mick knew this was THE END. That it was all over but the
shouting.



Footnote: Also closely connected to Pete Doherty and heroin chic is Kate Moss.
Kate, as you probably know, is a lifelong hardcore Stones fan, one of many
attributes she shares with SupaRevy. In fact, it has just gotten even harder
to tell us two apart...

Kate Moss' family 'frustrated by crush'

added: 17 Mar 2012 // by: newsdesk

Kate Moss' 'girl crush' on Rihanna is reportedly driving her family 'mad'.

The British supermodel and Bajan songstress were introduced at Stella
McCartney's London Fashion Week party. Since meeting the gorgeous star, Kate is
said to have developed a fascination with her.

Kate's constant gushing over Rihanna is reportedly getting on her family's
nerves.

'When Kate first saw Rihanna at Stella's bash, she asked her ex, Jefferson Hack,
to move so she could sit next to her. She spent the entire night gushing over
the singer and wants to throw a party for her at her North London home,' a
source told Closer magazine.

'She's confessed to her girl crush, which is driving husband Jamie Hince and
daughter Lila mad.'

Kate has reportedly also downloaded all of Rihanna's hit songs, and 'plays them
in the house all day.'

Her young daughter, Lila has allegedly had enough of the constant record playing.

'Lila has now banned her from playing them at home,' the insider added.

(So be careful out there! Whatever has happened to supa-stonesfan SupaRevy
has now happened to supa-stonesfan Kate Moss. It may be contagious, so make
sure you don't skip your vaccinations)

Or get on them.

A little bit of actual hard news has generated 24 new pages of yet more speculation: Will they or won't they? Can he play or can't he? Blah, blah, blah. hbwriter hints that he knows more, then promptly disappears. This is all very, very tiresome.

I kind of figured that. It was his hinting and teasing in spite of that fact that was so annoying.

I say HB has to come up with something this time around. He's a nice fellow but if you promise to deliver and then don't...

What happened? Did I kill the thread, as usual, or did the shit hit the fan?

I just chalked that up to an artistic way of showing some form of a sense of humility. I mean, he has far too many strong opinions (albeit expressed in his own unique way) to suddenly dismiss them all with one magic wave of the wand. He is a real character, a bit scattered, but is highly entertaining. I took his comment that you took from the body of his text (and responded to) as an honest opinion of what he actually believes to be true. On the other hand, he might be into some really good drugs?

I think revvy is fab, although tempermental and slightly deranged.
But I don't have a problem with that.

The last great tour was 2002/03. I loved the indoor-concerts like Munich or Paris. They did "Can´t You Hear Me Knockin" and other great stuff. ABB-Tour was the worst of all. They destroyed themselves.

Greetings Raluca

I must disagree...I saw Toronto in 2005 and Vancouver 2006 and both were excellent shows.

Seattle, 2006 (just five days before Austin) was also a fantastic show.

You sure can ask some obtuse and abstract questions, Stonescrow. Perhaps you're too busy stroking yourself about the Shits Of The Beatles instead of reading what people have been saying here for a few years now.

Searched for "Shits of the Beatles". Found this.
