I'm impressed. No one, er, a few people I would suspect of doing so haven't started new drooling threads saying ONLY THREE DAYS etc.

Not me, this thread will do for anything else I have to post regarding the 12th.

Somerset House do free guided tours on thursdays, at 1:15 and 14:45. They have cancelled the later one this week, so maybe 14.30 onwards, but don't expect much - Why are they so unwilling to appear in public ? We might as well say Led Zep have been a band for 44 years !
I will remain positive until the fat lady sings...........no, not Lisa !

<<< Why are they so unwilling to appear in public >>>
Because they probably can't be shagged to answer the same barrage of questions they've been getting for years now, and because it's distinctly possible they're actually not plannning a tour, not even any gigs, and in that respect .... there ain't really much else left to say, is there ?
Get used to the idea that if you were at the O2 Arena on Sunday 26th August 2007, you might just have seen the Rolling Stones live in concert for the last time. I would LOVE to be proved wrong on that, but I have no particular reason at this moment in time to think I will be. They don't look particularly interested, they don't sound particularly interested (from the very little any of them have to say about it), so maybe ... shock horror ... they really are not interested.

Hi Pauly
Yes I was at the last O2 show and I am prepared for the end,but would also love to be proved wrong. It's hard to let go . Sad I know,but that's how it is.

I see no one has questioned HOW they are going to appear. Via video screen? Or that hologram thing that's been occuring lately at whatever shows, like the one with Tupac. Puppets? iPhones? Black and white? Colour? Ha ha...

If there is no press conference, what might otherwise take place?
A private media event with only selected and invited guests and later broadcast?
Making a video like this as "Thank-You-for-50-Years"?
Or will simply nothing take place because the 12th of July 2012 is over-hyped?
I'm pretty sure MightyStonesStillRollin50/thewatchman/stonescrow are in the Himalayas right now, physically and mentally preparing themselves for the big day.Quote

Yup, I have to say that ever since that Sunday back in 2007 I've ALWAYS had this nagging suspicion that 26th August might have been it. Like I say, luuuuuuurv to be proved wrong, and maybe I will be - in which I'll be the first to eat humble pie and take all the flak about being a doubter n' all that. BUT, lets face it, they ain't exactly doin' or sayin' anything these days that makes me want to change my mind. Remember all that bollocks about "they'll carry on - there'll be shows in 2008" ? And then wasn't there yet more of that nonsense in 2009, or was it 2010 - or even 2011 ? Jeez ! I can't even recall ! But nonsense it all was. C'est la vie !
Anyway, see you at the "fake" ones on Thursday; ain't seen 'em for ages and they're always good for a giggle.
