Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere, but Rocks Off and Shidoobee have this link listing speific tour dates, including warmups in LA. Also, first time I've seen Santa Clara on the list. This list looks pretty reasonable-although I don't buy the MetLife and Bumbershoot festival rumors.
[thefestivalforecaster.blogspot.com.au]
5/24 Petco Park, San Diego, CA
5/30 Ohio Stadium, Columbus, OH
6/3 TCF Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, MN
6/6 Cowboys Stadium, Arlington, TX
6/10 Vanderbilt Stadium, Nashville, TN
6/13 Orlando Citrus Bowl Stadium, Orlando, FL
6/16 or 17 Bobby Dodd Stadium, Atlanta, GA
6/20 Heinz Field, Pittsburgh, PA
6/23 Marcus Amphitheater, Milwaukee, WI
6/26 or 27 Arrowhead Stadium, Kansas City, MO
6/30 or 7/1 Levi's Stadium, Santa Clara, CA
7/4 Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Indianapolis, IN
7/8 Comerica Park, Detroit, MI
7/11 Ralph Wilson Stadium, Buffalo, NY
7/15? Le Festival d'été de Québec, Plains of Abraham, Québec City, QC or RBC Royal Bank Bluesfest, LeBreton Flats Park, Ottawa, ON
Expect a tour similar to the above to be announced on Thursday, March 19th. Additional special promotional events, festival appearances, and concerts filmed for television may be announced at later dates. We think these may include the following:
5/16 Saturday Night Live, New York, NY, among other television appearances
5/19-21 Club Nokia and/or Nokia Theatre L.A. Live, Los Angeles, CA (2 filmed shows)
6/18 Live Earth Festival, MetLife Stadium, East Rutherford, New Jersey?
Mid-late July? - Forest Hills Stadium, New York, NY (3 shows)?
Labor Day Weekend - Bumbershoot Festival, Seattle, WA?
I find the Milwaukee date highly unlikely, as Milwaukee's big music festival kicks off on June 24, and the Marcus Amphitheater is on the Summerfest grounds and is used for Summerfest. I live there, and have never seen any event scheduled at that venue this close to Summerfest. Not impossible, but unlikely, ymmv

For out-of-towners coming to Columbus, you may want to consider staying at a hotel in the arena district. The motels around campus are a little down and out, and the ones in arena are much more upscale. There is a lot more to do in that area as well. Lots of clubs and restaurants concentrated in the arena and the short north. The Hyatt regency is sold out for May 30, but there are still rooms at the Crowne Plaza and the Lofts.

There's a Comfort Suites with high ratings 2 miles from the stadium...booked top of the line room for $114. Sounds like a 20.00 roundtrip cab ride to me.
Which one? A few of them are in really great locations but a couple are not.

That is a crazy list.. If they play SNL this is either the last tour or there is a new album. Mick always has an agenda. I can't see them saying "here's another tour, we just want to play".
Very curious what we'll find out this week..

OPTIONS TO BUFFALO FROM EUROPE:
GO THRU TORONTO - much cheaper flights than going thru NYC, and 2 hours away from Buffalo. Easy drive or train, though a car makes more sense
You might have a hard time explaining US Customs agents why you traveled from Europe to Buffalo through Toronto. Won't that look shady to cops?
And crossing the US border coming from Canada is tricky even for Canadians.
Me I'd take the "easy" NYC route.

A very nice hint in this message from BV. - the one about LA
That's the second hint actually after the "special show in a town where the hot shots are" (paraphrasing). With the UC info (two "SF Specials" to record a DVD for the fall) it's all falling into place. Good luck getting tickets for that show, I suspect it will be an "Eagles Freezes Over type".

Didn't Jim Ladd say May 20th? Perhaps these are going to precede the tour proper, and serve as some sort of publicity?

Are there chances to one or two London shows 2015? Or rather, in 2016, a European tour?

So wouldn't the new #SatisfactionWednesday hashtag mean the original Thursday date has been made earlier?

The Indianapolis show is set for the 4th of July. The festival in Canada will be added to the end of the tour. This is the "15 on Fire" tour. Plus Sticky Fingers the promo event in LA. Plus rehearsals and all the other usual stuff they do before, during and after a tour. I am sure they will fill in the gaps, talk to press, show up at events, and have as much fun and P.R. as they can.
The IORR tour dates pages is updated with the list of shows they are expected to perform this summer:
