Until BV tells us, on his news section, the STONES ARE ON!!!!!
No more rumours, please!!!

I heard a Sep 5th start date. All USA/Canada. No Europe until 2006. Afterwards a new live CD of the tour. Bill and Mick Taylor will make surprise guest appearances, but just in Canada. How's that for rumours? :-)

>I heard a Sep 5th start date.

I heard the 6th...lol

> All USA/Canada.

In 2005..yep

> No Europe until 2006.

of course

> Afterwards a new live CD of the tour.

makes absolutely no commercial sense but you know it will happen

> Bill and Mick Taylor will make surprise guest appearances, but just in Canada.

balls. If Bill ever plays with the Stones again (unlikely IMO) it'll be in London. Certainly not in Canada, as no way would he be so anxious to do so that he'd get on a transatlantic flight to do it. I wouldnt rule out Taylor doing a cameo with the Stones at SOME point - although the fact that he blew a chance to do so in 2003 might put them off asking him again. If those guys ever do make "surprise guest appearances" its not going to be something 'planned' this far in advance.

> How's that for rumours?

feasible on all counts apart from the "just in canada" line

Yes, it's true Bill doesn't like to fly. But rumour has it that he's already in Canada. Someone in Toronto saw him in the HMV store on Yonge Street...with Elvis no less.

But Bill had a fight with Elvis and left in a hurry with Richey Edwards....

ROCKMAN

...and Giant Whore!

two words: boat trip

Are you sure it was Bill and not Brian. From the back, it could have been Stu.
