I hardly believe that kind of information...

Mick and Keith have always had ups and downs in their relationship.

Keith once compared them to an old couple, saying that they couln't part after such a long time together.

They thought inseparable, but it smells the end for the Rolling Stones. The rock grandpas have indeed planned to separate after a final tour in 2013 (the United States and the United Kingdom - pity for the French) that will culminate in a show in the proper music festival Glastonbury. The information is advanced by the Mirror adds a source close to the band have said: "The four members of the group agreed that next year will be the right time to say goodbye to the public and give the concert of their lives ".

But why Stones separate them? We had come to believe that they live their last moments on stage together. It even became a joke among the public. But everything changed when, in 2010, guitarist Keith Richards's autobiography was published. It read stories on the inglorious frontman Mick Jagger, the guitarist described as "unbearable." Keith Richards mocked even so-called sexual prowess of the singer. "Basically, we are brothers," he told the Daily Express. "I can hit him over, but if someone else does, I will chop off your throat!"

One Glast time... The Rolling Stones set to bow out at Glastonbury Festival

The Rolling Stones are set to bow out in sensational style... with a farewell gig at ­Glastonbury next year.

The band, whose four members have a combined age of 272, will play the ­coveted Sunday night headline slot on the Pyramid stage after talks with festival organisers Michael and Emily Eavis.

It will be their first and only ­performance at the famous Somerset festival which attracts 175,000 fans.

Sources close to the band indicate that the appearance is expected to be the final date in a “handful” of shows in Britain and America in 2013 – which they see as their true 50th anniversary – before they ­finally retire from the live arena.

One insider revealed: “All four members have agreed that next year is the right time to have one final hurrah and put on the gig of their lives.

“It’s a case of now or never, and ­obviously Glastonbury is the most important ­festival on the circuit. Everybody’s incredibly excited... it’s a final bow.”
The band – whose song The Last Time hit No 1 in 1965 – are said to be ­unwilling to embark on another of their record-breaking world tours.

Mick Jagger, 68, says he doesn’t want to be away from his family for so long, and Keith Richards, also 68, has given up the hell-raising lifestyle that was a big part of touring.

Charlie Watts, 71, has never been a fan of life on the road. However, Ronnie Wood, 65, gave a strong hint that the band were preparing a comeback, saying: “It looks like we are going to be doing more stuff.”

Glastonbury Festival show closing date is June 30, 2013, a Sunday.
