Yet, here you are paying attention.
Odd.
Yeah but it's been like that since forever ago.
You're just realizing this now?
do you think they'll have it done before raleigh?
Well let's work on this together. I'm sure we can figure the whole thing out...
Memo to Turner68: I would say not before Raleigh, but definitely before July 1st, 2016.
in what way is the analogy not perfect?
;-)
The problem is it makes little economic sense for groups like the Stones to spend their working hours in the studio if they can spend them on the road. Let's say they spend two months recording a new album. Let's say it sells 300,000 copies (which is probably about what we could expect these days). At $15 per sold copy that would generate about $4.5 million in sales. That's less than the Stones generate in ticket sales for a SINGLE 2 hour show (and that doesn't include merchandising). In fact the show at Stade de France last year generated over $9 million. I want the Stones to make a new album also. But with the state of music sales in the digital age, where many people expect music to be free, I would understand if they never stepped foot in the studio again.
I seriously doubt Keith could catch a Frisbee with his mouth...or any of them for that matter. Maybe Mick?
It's accurate. But you would need to add that at one time this dog was the biggest, strongest, meanest dog in the neighborhood. That dog is older now, and not quite what he was, but still tough enough to kick the living crap out of all the other older dogs, and practically all of the younger dogs too. Now you have a perfect analogy.

Well, they don't exactly need to. They could rehearse a handful of new songs and cover versions, play them live in front of enthusiastic hardcore fans at a small series of club shows, record the stuff on location and spend not more than a week for small corrections, some minimal overdubs and mixing. Et voila - there's a new Stones album with new material, recorded live at club shows and a bonus track or two recorded at the rehearsals.
After the two or three "new album recording" club shows are done, they can go on tour with their usual greatest hits and, surprise, surprise, maybe even one or two new songs in the set.
Well, that's how I would do it if I was in their position and considering the general circumstances.
Talk about your favorite band.

Zip Code Tour - but no new music...downer

Thw whole thing nets out as a downer for me. The stones are energetic enough to do a real tour, but not ambitious enough to get in the studio for 1-2 months and try and come up with a new album. And still no truly bringing mick taylor back into the fold. Bullshit. Nostalgia entrepreneurship... The stones have been the finest stones cover band for 20+ years now. What a waste. They need a producer who shames ALL OF THEM them into getting to a bare studio -- set up mikes and a sound board, no over-dubs or any other embellishments, turn the shit on and just PLAY/RECORD. And see what happens. What they're doing now - derivative to the nth degree - is not even worthy of paying attention to from my perspective.

Not a downer for me, just the opposite for me,
listening to the show on periscope was a lot of fun... great Stones songs.

I just have a feeing we'll get something new pretty soon, maybe this year... maybe before the year's out.... They could wait until next year, but hopefully not.
The sooner the better, I say! How's that for a straight answer?

I know the analogy isn't perfect but the Stones are like an old dog who you've had many great frisbee catch session with or romps through the woods or runs on the beach. You aren't going to love them any less when they slow down and can't catch the frisbee everytime or learn new tricks, if anything you love 'em more because they are still trying, and when they perform like they used to you are delighted even more.
The Stones are still standing at the door every time with tail wagging ready to do their best. They aren't as good as they once were but they're as good once as they ever were. It's why I stick to one show per tour and love them as much as I ever did. The world will be considerable more lonely and empty without them.
No doubt the doggie biscuits have gotten a bit more expensive.
peace

AS KR once sung "you don't move me anymore". This RS version is very weak with no new music. Once i was very hooked to the RS, during a very long time. Now i do not enjoy what they are doing, with or without Mick Taylor.
The best thing in 20 years, the RW album "feel like playing"

It's accurate. But you would need to add that at one time this dog was the biggest, strongest, meanest dog in the neighborhood. That dog is older now, and not quite what he was, but still tough enough to kick the living crap out of all the other older dogs, and practically all of the younger dogs too. Now you have a perfect analogy.

There will never be a new album. Just the odd song here and there. They lack the will. The only hope is to really open the vaults. And that won't happen as long as they are alive. If a fan/historian had carte blanch, you would see cool stuff like the Elvis FTD label puts out.

Whatta you mean, no new music? I just listened to the Stones doing some song called "Hang On Sloopy". Damn, what a beat. Got the audience singing along and movin' their feet. They should've jammed out on this flucker and segued right into "Summertime Blues" or, this would blow everyone's mind, "Come Together". And, if you can't dig the Stones channeling the Beatles, Bo Diddley's "Mona" would be a great segue after a jam on "Sloopy". And, right now, on satellite radio, they're playing Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made for Walking". What a helluva followup to "Sloopy" this would be.
