The Stones like touring Europe when the World Cup is on. They did it in 82, 90, and 2006. I remember when they played one of the Wembley shows in June 1990 during Italia 90. Germany were playing England in that crazy semi-final and the roading held up cardboard to show what was happening during the penalty shoot out.

Pencil me in as well, please.
I am glad to see MUCH more coverage of World Cup games here in the USA than there was in the past. I remember in 1990 tuning in to ESPN to see a World Cup game and seeing bass fishing being shown instead.
I hope the vuvuzela-tooting is kept to a minimum.

No way Brazil is going to miss this chance...unless they'll face Urugay in the final game, of course!

Here's a football/soccer joke:
By chance, Pele, Franz Beckenbauer and Bobby Charlton die in the same moment and come up to Heaven. God welcomes them and they talk and laugh.
Suddenly Pele says: Dear God, they say that you know everything. Is that true?"
"Yes", says God.
"Then tell me when will Brazil will the World Cup?"
"Don't worry, they will be Champion in 2014 in Brazil!"
Then Franz Beckenbauer asks: Can you tell me when Germany will win the World Cup again?"
"Don't worry, Franzl, you just have to wait until 2018."
Then it's up to Bobby Charlton: "When will England win again?"
God starts crying bitterly...
