We're not.
And the only part of the UK theyve played since 2006 other than a festival was London.
They'll come back to the US soon enough I'm sure. Dont think its much to ask to allow other parts of the planet a visit first.

Here's the exact figures. The last Stones show (their own show) they have played outside of London in the UK was at the Millennium Stadium in cardiff on the 29th of August 2006. The other two shows being festivals (Isle of White and Glastonbury- not Stones shows in other words). Even more amazing is that they have only played 3 shows outside of London in the UK (Cardiff, Sheffield, Glasgow) since the 5th of September 2003. Yes you read that right people, 3 shows since 2003!
The US on the other hand (not including Canada) has had 37 shows since that 29th of August Cardiff show in 2006.
I always shake my head when my American friends ask for another US tour. I hope you get one in the future at some point but let the rest of us have some of the pie (by that I mean those down under, Europe, South America and of course the UK outside of London!).

I don't think they should play behind every bush in the UK. But you've got airports with low cost carriers next to every tree. UK is not that big. Or you can go to the continent for a Stones concert. It would be cheaper than a ticket in the UK.
This is just my opinion, no personal offense. Peace.

And that's exactly what we do. We follow the Stones all over the continent because we love them
I dream of the day of seeing the Stones in the UK and returning to my own bed at night though!

Great, thanks for getting my message in a positive way. I've seen the Stones in my hometown two times, but failed to wake up in my own bed in both cases though!

Five times the population. Still reckon its disproportionally in favour of the US by a wide margin!
If we're going to go by land area, they'll need to have a very extensive trek around Russia, China, Brazil and Canada in the near future! :-)
