Not to the true Stones fans, but let's be honest - most Stones fans
are just as happy to go see Macca, U2, or other bands. There are few among
us who truly love the band.

There are no new bands anymore. Modern culture is too fragmented for any band to ever have the cultural impact that the Beatles or Stones had. Post WW2 end of empire. End of deference. Stones lit the touch paper. These circumstances will not be repeated for a long long time and if they do it will be in a very different way.
And hasn't it all been done now?

Careful what you wish for. Look at the Hateful Fred & the proliferation of jam bands. The horrors!

Are you saying there is more than a few hundred Stones fans?

Hi everybody
I'm new here and this is my first topic. I don't know if this topic has ever been discussed before...
I don't want to be too pessimistic,but we all know that the Stones will stop touring someday.
The Stones are and always will be my number one band, but can someone name a rock band that can fill the shoes of The Rolling Stones.
Music-wise I'm thinking of The Black Crowes, but I don't think they are that well known to the general public.. (So maybe u2, Artic Monkeys,..)
I would like to hear your opinions.
Cheers Aron

This one made me laugh. Made me think of IORR classics like "done deal" and "sons of the Beatles". Great stuff!

I'm sorry, I'm not sure I quite follow you there, fellow Swede Holmström...
