do you really think 1995-2014 (only 19 years)makes a difference with those guys?
Mick&Keith will be only 70 years old...ronnie something about 67...and Charlie is ...charlie.
No,probably in their 80´s they possibly slow their speed....i mean possibly
There is still 10 years+ 1 year from Bigger Bang to today....and it takes same time they are 80.
I can´t understand nobody who does not understand their unique in aging.

Yesterday on austrian radio they talked to the children who sang with roger waters on his The Wall concert in Vienna.
They said they would sing with the stones next year...
well this is straight from the children's mouths.
Done Deal!
Does this mean they'll be adding Dandelion to the set list?
How is it that an actual single, Dandelion, never ever gets played?
I mean NEVER!

What the @#$%& are you talking about? No they are not unique, they are what they are. They age like everyone else. Time Waits for No One. Read that again. They are good musicians, not gods.
To quote Kanye, the end is near.

-does they?Do we speak same band?
Ok..Charlie maybe looks like 70 yeasrs old.
Keith looks f*cking bad.But he has looked that for years...
Ronnie looks like 49 years old as waitin for the time when he is a real grown man.
And Mick...does he have physich of 35 old man or only 30 old man.
Example Mick,it´s almost imbossibility that he does not have any serious joint-or muscular problem after those sporting years.
Look professional athletes who stop at 35....they are bad condition...(knees,elbows,joints.).And Mick is 70 with hours of trainin daily.
And there is guy in same band who used heroin over 8 years,50% of heroin addicts normaly die after 4,5 year using(if i remeber correct)
And there is charlie who survived cancer.
And is´t there two wife who did same thing.
After their lifetime habit....it would be too much fortune....somekind of magic is there in air around them.
Sure for the Stones and their Management. Not so sure about AEG Live. I am pretty sure that promoters ask them to scale down their demands.Quote

If a promotor stumps up the 3/4 million required to get them onstage, they'll play. Does anyone know if 50 and Counting was profitable (the US shows I mean , not Glastonbury or HP)?

I do not know if you have seen them ever in concert and watched them leaving the stage. The first time I realized that they are really worn out and fatique was in 2003 after the fabolous concert at the cirkus in Stockholm. One saw Mick aging 20 years in 2 hours. On the previous 50 & Counting Tour they moved and acted differently and saved their energy for the 2,5 hour shows. However they still need a rest of 3 days to recover. I know also mountaineers that age and other people doint great sports but as said we all get older and we all have our pains also Mick, Keith, Charlie and Ronnie. They just might have the better physicians and doctors around. But heaven doesn't wait for them either.
Anyway this is not the topic. The topic is rumoured shows and again my tealeaves tell me nothing

Hi all
I couldn´t attend the "50 & Counting" Tour. So, sorry but, I still dream about see them on stage again. I´d like to cash my dream some day.

I think the problem is this . . . Mick dislikes the prospect of touring with keith so much that he requires a large sum in order to do it. What is going on now is seeing if the demand is there for the payday Mick requires. Yeah, they could plan an itenerary overnight once they decide to do it, if they will do it at a price that promoters will pay. That's what they are trying to work out.

Profitable for the promotor I mean

I remember in the 90's two promoters going bankrupt after doing The Stones.

...I would guess from the looks they have on stage when they do it that they love the adulation far more than they dislike each other. Another guess is that after 5 decades of life at the top, of getting whatever they demand whenever they want , and being loved partially for that attitude, that it is more likely they are having troubles down scaling their expectations of constantly topping themselves. Or, as Gazza has said, and to paraphrase, basically the market is not there to meet their demands.
