No visit to Chicago this time? Milwaukee perhaps?
I have so many great memories from following The Rolling Stones in America. In 1997 they started the tour in Chicago Tuesday Sept 23. I was at the Bridges To Babylon presss conference in NYC in Brooklyn with the Manhattan backdrop in August 1997, such a great event. Then I went hope for some work, and had a return flight into Chicago on Friday Sept 19. I missed the Double Door show by one day, but next day I was inside Soldier Field for hours, one of the greatest memories as a Stones fan ever. I arrived before the Stones, I was there for hours, and as they arrived backstage, I was sitting like 5-6 feet away from Keith as he walked by me, sitting in the golf cart as "working personel". Later on, I was on the pitch, standing next to Michael Cohl, watching the Stones live on stage. As nobody knows me, I could be standing next to the guy who own the tour without bothering anybody. For may be three hours, more than just a show. I wrote a short report about it here, see link below, but I could, and probably will, write abook about that tour later on:

Anyway, to cut a long story short, I do love the windy city, and I have seen the Stones in Chicago every tour since then, also in nearby St Louis, my favorite Budweiser city, but on this tour, I will see the Stones next door Chicago in a state I have never seen the Stones before. It will be great experience, I am sure. My countdown has started. It is hard to wait the few remaining weeks when you have this addiction, but I will make it.
MORE BREADCRUMBS!!
Missouri? Iowa? (no way!), Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky??

Does that mean Philadelphia will be skipped as well, given it falls in the same category of Boston and Chicago? I thought I read that the Stones liked cheesesteaks as well (ocassionally hoagies). Well, maybe I dreamed that
Any chance of a Baltimore show? Seems they are getting a few more shows at m&T this summer.

Bv, could you say whether or not I should plan on travelling very far? I'm from Victoria, BC. Maybe a great return to BC Place or CenturyLink Field?

I think L.A. is your best bet.

I thought Forest Hills in Queens was pretty sure? That doesn't count as NYC? Well, let's wait and see

I'll bet on Minneapolis (BV was in Milwaukee in 2005).
For me, Buffalo then Pittsburgh (late june-beginning of july) would be the better option.

I have no information.
My 'spidey senses' are telling me it's Vancouver. We need a Canadian date and I can't imagine Toronto is going to get yet another show.
