mick will be criticised either way. show goes on he is insensitive, cancel the show(s)/tour and people will want him to pay for there monetary losses. either way he cannot win in such a terrible situation..
These people are the Rolling Stones. They have been for over 50 years. Either way anyone criticising their decision is just not worth mentionning.
If I had to guess, I would say the show will go on Rolling Stones style.
Rubbish. The Perth show will not go on as scheduled. Nobody wants that to happen under these circumstances. Jagger is reported to be on his way to New York. The Australian tour will be postponed. The promoters and Stones management are trying to figure out what to do at this point but the decision when they will play again is up to Mick.

I suppose they know that a lot of people is flying to perth to see them. This silence from the band meAns that they Are still talking about that. The fact that they left the hotel can mean that they Are stayin' now in a more hidden place to not be disturbed by the media

ROLLING Stones tour promoter Michael Gudinski is believed to be trying to establish new dates before announcing the cancellation of some or all of the current Australian tour, following the death of Mick Jagger’s New York girlfriend, L’Wren Scott.
The Perth show tomorrow night and the Adelaide show on Saturday seem almost certain to be cancelled, but whether the tour will resume in the Eastern States before looping back to Perth and Adelaide is uncertain.
Following the current Australian tour the band were set to perform a show in Auckland, New Zealand on April 5 before kicking off their European tour in The Netherlands on June 7.
However, there is still no official word on reports The Rolling Stones have cancelled their first Australian concert in Perth, after the death of Ms Scott.
A spokeswoman for Frontier Touring said this morning there was ``no information regarding the tour’’, which was scheduled to kick off at Perth Arena tomorrow night.
This doesn't quote any source, we've had no official announcement from the band. I will be surprised if the gig does go ahead though.

All talk of cancelled shows has come from the media, no-one else. There will be an official announcement I feel early evening Perth time

What is the source of this?
Why are they still selling tix for Perth and Adelaide?

The show in Perth is officially cancelled. The Rolling Stones and Frontier Touring are holding off from making any further statements until they sort out whether or not they will be able to reschedule the Perth show until a later date. They may have to reschedule Adelaide as well and all of this re-shuffling requires an enormous amount of logistical coordination involving the venues, hotels, trucking, band and crew transportation, etc. They are working on it as we speak and will make an announcement as soon as new dates can be arranged. Mick will reportedly soon be on his way back to New York to attend L'Wren's funeral and be with family and friends, and away from the media in Australia.

The show in Perth is officially off for Wednesday. The Rolling Stones and Frontier Touring are holding off from making any further statements until they can sort out whether or not they will be able to reschedule the Perth show until a later date. They may have to reschedule Adelaide as well and all of this re-shuffling requires an enormous amount of logistical coordination involving the venues, hotels, trucking, band and crew transportation, etc. They are working on all this now and will make an announcement in the coming days as to if and when new dates can be arranged. In the meantime, Mick will reportedly soon be on his way back to New York to attend L'Wren's funeral and be with family and friends, and away from the media in Australia.
Is this a press release of some kind? Could you post a link? Thanks.

They have rescheduled shows several times. The longer away and the harder it is to return the less chance there is to do a new date. It took them years to reschedule Bilbao, in fact a new ticket sale, but it took less than a week to reschedule Cardiff 1990. That was an infected finger by Keith only, this is very different of course. Please do respect the fact that this is a difficult time for Mick and his family.
