Seeing them as they look today would freak out the people in 1973.Quote

They rent a time-capsule and fly back to 1973. I cannot think of anything more exciting.

Hate to say this but maybe ticket sales for some shows are really as poor
As some people have reported. Possibly the promoter told the band they need to do somthing to rapidly sell these tickets. If this is the intention of the anouncement then this anouncement could be many things but hopefully not declaring this the last tour.
Curious what many things you think they could announce that would spur ticket sales at this point. I can only come up with:
1. Last probable NA tour - not likely they would say this and it's not hard to conclude that this is a possibility anyway.
2. Hot Opening Acts- I would welcome this more for your money approach but since none have leaked out at this point it also seems unlikely
3. Mick Taylor will be joining. In reality they did kind of leave this possibility open when Mick said "I don't think so" and Keith said "I heard he was sick" but lack of sighting at the rehearsals make me think this isn't an option.
4. All unsold seats available for $29.95 in the days leading up to the show, or some similar massive discounted marketing move.
I do expect a pretty aggressive and hyped media blitz after the San Diego show to get the message out there that this is a tour that shouldn't be missed.

I do find it strange there is not a mention
Of an opening band except for Indy.

Who has been announced for Indy? I must have missed it. Makes sense with 100,000 seat to fill at arguably the worst venue on the tour.

I ask a lot of questions with the hastag #AskTheStones and two of them are marked as favorite by the official account from The Rolling Stones. Wonder if they gonna answer these questions. Would be very cool if they did!

When is the announcement due? It's Monday 16:10 CET now. That means 07:10 in LA I guess...

Announcement will be about the Fonda theatre show, no? Isn't that sort of obvious?
