Seems likely. However, that soon after Pinkpop Holland????????????

PINKPOP IS NOT SURE AT ALL ... a well known site for the stones, same as werchter ...but nothing is for sure, yet .. and even ZIGGO is not sure ..for a gig

Great information mrsoul. I can well believe it. Wonder where the London gigs will be. Probably Wembley, I reckon.

What about the Olympic Stadium? That would be a new place to play for them in a very familiar area

I`m just guessing, but if they were allowed to Play there, this could be a Location....

Cheers

Yes,the contract is signed for this summer festival.
Announcement early march.
Sure? Yes, a very good friend of mine is a musician in a major band supporting The Stones at TW Classics. That band signed the gig this week and gave me the news today.
More major bands tba soon, or should I say one major artist, who suddenly shifted gears by releasing some of the strongest material, beginning in the late nineties.
This festival will be one hell of a day!

Bob?

He's in Slovakia the 27th of June. I don't know if he's still able to do that, that's a lot of miles. Or it might be another date.

BV, Werchter - Leuven...that's how far (on foot)?

Harm I do remember BV asking me the same question... I then took BV and a swedish guy from the Stones rehearsals in Werchter back to Leuven by car. I told them it was to far by foot....We finished our evening in style with a couple of Rodenbach bears and some shrimp croquettes in a café close to the Oude Markt...!

And he's in Vienna on the 28th of June. So he will either play Werchter on another date, or maybe not at all.

Might be Bruce........ Springsteen, begins with a b

So your "very good friend" knows his group is playing, knows The Stones are playing and knows that Bob is playing, but forgot to tell you the date????

I do remember we walked all the way from the show in Werchter to Leuven. I was with a few friends, and it took a couple of hours. It was a long walk, after a great show you need to walk yourself down anyway. Tonight after the Tokyo #1 show I wasn't able to sleep until 3:30am, while the show ended 9pm. Long story...

Just 2 hours bv??? I don´t remember well, but I remember it like 4 or 5 (laughs), thanks to an argentinian girl who I met in the show I was able of come back to the hotel without problems... If I don´t met her, probably now I could be still walking and been near of Helsinki or so...

Thanks for your European tour list!!! Sounds very promising!

Personally I have mixed feelings about stadium shows vs arena. Just back from one of the best shows in ages, in Tokyo Dome, a stadium of 50,000 people, I must say that an arena show is still a little bit more intimate. But then they have to bring the TONGUE stage, and that stage setup is quite expensive to transport around, with 30 or so trucks. That is why they can only do these arena shows where people are willing to pay an uplift on the ticket prices.

Unfortunately I got no PIT tickets for the o2 shows in 2012 so I ended up in tier 2. So I do really want to have the first row experience this time of the quite low tongue stage where you feel like part of the band (according to the videos). Of course stadium shows are much cheaper but one show in the pit is a must IMHO.

So no dates for East-Central Europe (Hungary, Poland, Czech, Serbia, Croatia etc.) ?
Come on Rolling Stones we deserve some gigs!!!
