Though England is off Continent the Stones are a European band. So they toured first in the United States and Canada, now moving on to England for three shows. Look how they swept from West to East across the USA. My money says there will will be a similar sweep across Europe. Europe is their home and USA/Canada was a warm up. Then the last shows will be at O2 and they will officially retire

I agree with everything except the "officially retire" part. They may never play again, but there won't be any official retirement.

The upside of a stated retirement means they can charge more plus my guess is Charlie and Keith are ready to wrap it up. Keith wants to jam into perpetuity with his reggae friends in Jamaica where he wants to move to...as he recently stated. Long beaches with miles of shallow water. Charlie has his own jazz combos that perform

Yeah, and they'll be continually asked, until the day they die, "When are the Stones getting back together again".

Have a great summer everyone. Speak with you again on the night of the full moon during the season of the Jack O' Lantern! Something magical about the month of October. It fits our Rolling Stones perfectly.

Well, I came back roughly one full moon to early. Had an early fall this year.

A great summer to you too, Mr Lantern. I'm sure I'm speaking for everbody here when I say that we will dearly miss your transcendent and masterful insights about the modus operandi of The Rolling Stones.
So far all your predictions have come true. Who knows what will happen in the fall?

Thanks, mate. Time sure moves quickly as you get older. Hard to believe that magical month of October is upon us once again. The 25th marks the first anniversary of the Stones return to the stage last October. Looking back it all seems like a dream. It seemed the 50th anniversary year would never arrive and now it's suddenly almost three months in our rear view mirror.

I'm sure fans all over the world have marked October 31 on their calendar. An exciting Stones-related event, for sure! I can hardly contain myself. I wish it were the 31st today. Oh boy! So fun!

Lets not get too carried away here, gumboot.

Actually, I think you and a few others will be pleased with the announcement.

I hope the announcement is special. I'm not psyched about the Hyde Park DVD. I've already heard the audio. I wish they would get back into the archival stuff. There's got to be a way to get that LA Forum 1975 show on DVD (in an acceptable looking/sounding product). I'm sure a lot of people still want the Hampton '81 show on DVD, even though the boot is easily obtained and of high quality.

Paris '67 audio download, Live at Leeds, there's all kinds of goodies out there still to be had. And they could always put together a collection of their promo films, although they'd have to deal with ABKCO to do it properly.

The Beatles transcended that debate many years ago. The Stones rightly lay claim to the title "greatest rock and roll band in the world". The Beatles now exist on a higher astral plane where such trivial issues are not a consideration.

I would be satisfied with a box set featuring '50 and Counting. The guests were fabulous and Mick Taylor was a dream come true. My only regret was that they didn't let Bill do When The Whip Comes Down. I forget, did they even do it on this past tour?

Yes, for the show I went to, Boston II (June 14). They also did Memory Motel that night as well.

October has a mystique about it that no other month has outside of maybe the month of March - mainly because of the Ides of March. October is transition month. Sometimes you can look back and get that one last glimpse of summer, but you know it's only a glance, for directly ahead lies the dead of winter - many cold gray rainy days ahead before we see light at the end of the tunnel. The Stones are heading into hibernation for the winter and we probably won't hear much after the fall until next spring. Hopefully, they emerge from the long winter with a few more surprises. Time to go cut some fire wood.

Fantastic! Thanks for sharing. Bill's bass in the Live In Texas DVD was phenomenal. Would have loved to see him do it for his last number with the band.

Haven't seen the jumbo pumpkins just yet. I usually have one by October 17, which is the first day of the Season of the Witch (Halloween season). The last time I saw the Stones (live in person) was on the 17th of October of 2006.

WOW! CREEPY!

Actually sorry, not creepy at all, not sure what I was getting at. Pumpkins are definitely out, even in the supermarkets. Go down and pick your own from a local farm, more fun!

Be sure to scoop out the seeds, clean and then roast them...mmmm....

I look for the biggest one I can find and turn it into the fiercest Jack O' Lantern in the hallow.

I wonder where Mr Gaslight went? This thread lack some duality. Or shall we take for granted that Mr Gaslight agrees with all these bold theories from Mr O'Lantern? That would be the first time...
