They really don't need more than a few days to get limber, really.
Don't expect big changes...it's the same tour that started in 1989.

I have a full respect for the boss (I like so much what he does) and so I do not want to discuss his position.
But that's sure that I am worrying about the tour start. For many reasons, as simple as I already saw a cancelled tour with no solutions for me to get a "new" ticket !
And the rehearse start news would be a good news. Where ? I don't care (event if I would be happy to run in my neighboorhood to see ...) Which songs ? Anyways.
On another hand, the Mick health or/and feeling is very important, as I am fully sure that he carries the shows on his shoulders. Guitar player can be replaced, regarding the sound, not the smilly face (please don't kill me). Singer show man ??? His gril friend died in horrible way, he's not the first, not the last. Show must go on. Or not. His choice.
Well, the new australian tour was announced, we can probably hope that the europe tour will not be cancelled.
My first show is June 1st, so after 2 others ...

If they play the 1989 setlist now, I'll be over the moon

There was nothing wrong with the tempo on the two shows I attended.

It's funny. On the first one, Charlie increases the beat after the intro. On the second version, it's vice versa

The Hyde Park version is a way better! For The Stones it's not about speed, but about rhythm. SWING is the key! And for that matter they are really swinging nowadays...

Certainly there's something called obsessing but to be honest I'd like to know if the tour is on or not. I don't want to waste a lot of money on hotels/travel for nothing, nobody does.

Worry, worry, worry! Why? The tour is on. They will hit the stage running on May 26 and all will be well in Stonesland, at least until the next break, then it all starts over again, the worry that is. I for one love the intrigue of not knowing every little detail. Some of us need to develop a little trust in our favorite band.

Hyde Park sounds like a train running out of steam...sorry. SWING is the key, right, but that went with Bill leaving.

Yes indeed. I see a lot of unnecessary anxiety in this thread. There's absolutely no reason for the tour not to go ahead as planned, unless something totally unforeseen and serious happens, which was the only reason for the Australia/NZ postponement. And they don't need weeks and weeks of rehearsal time, just enough time to get back up to speed. I'm not sure why folks think this tour won't happen, but if it's because of Mick's mental state, I'll bet my entire Stones collection that that won't be an issue, certainly not to the extent of the tour not going ahead. These people are professionals.

What did Dylan say.... they are a funk band now. But - is that supposed to be such a bad thing? In Dylanese I suppose it is..
