...I think that they must make a new "concept" with 3/4 new songs from a new studio album and a new stage...Zip code Tour will finish with the end of North American Tour and maybe South American leg, then if they'll need continuing in Europe, people want something news...

The UK Post-code tour?

It was the rule of thumb in the past that a tour was instigated on the back of a new album. A promotional tour for the album - if you like. This policy now seems to have been pretty much abandoned during this new century with the exception of 'A Bigger Bang' in 2005. So they have become a nostalgia act ... but with a large catalogue of 'old' songs to draw upon. Does it matter? Would new songs (a new album) envigorate the band and have some relevance? I think this has been discussed on the board ad-nauseum. I suppose we'd all like to hear new material.. yet they do give the impression of being creatively moribund.

Aftermath 50!

They should be touring the 10th Anniversary of ABB this year!

I'll be there

They've already given us the expanded version of ABB in the first place. Maybe the newly remastered version could have fewer songs?

I think the prospect of another Euro tour is unlikely. I think they have completed the circle with this US tour. Maybe they add some South America gigs to this. That's about it. I guess...

...I think that they're still able to make ten decent new songs...Eleven years (next year)without a new album is too much...

Why do you think it is unlikely that they would tour Europe again next year?

To me it seems a possibility as they are very popular and there are big places they did not play last time around and they are in a good place as a band.
I have no knowledge of anything planned I'm just guessing that it could be a possibility,if they do I will be there so that's one ticket they have sold already.

Something tells me this is their last victory lap. And they played Europe in 2014. It feels like the circle is completed. I might be wrong though. I'm not a wizard.

They played the States in 2013 but return now. So why not? Mick might just feel the need for some of our frantic energy after the US shows.

BV mentioned that London 2016 is still in the plans

Mick spoken about new Tours also next year, so if it'll happens, Europe is a good choice...There are many countries or cities that wait the Stones:East Countries,Finland,Amsterdam in Nederland, two cities at least in Germany, Barcelona in Spain, Milan in Italy, Ireland, some Festivals, Hyde Park or Wembley in London...So 16 dates should be easy, but please...With a new concept and possibly new songs from a new studio album, eleven years is a reasonable time to hear something news!

I Think so too Europe 2016...Prague.Budapest,Munich, and everything mentioned above.......Maybe Scotland and Liverpool.Manchester.Hamburg...and a few others well we shall see and everybody have grand time this Summer!!!!!Be Well.M

I don't see a final Rolling Stones performance taking place anywhere other than the city of their formation: London.

If they schedule three shows at the O2 like in 2007, I will take it as a serious sign.
However I believe it's much more likely that the last show will happen somewhere else just before one of them unexpectedly kicks the bucket.

This is a possible cities list of possible show next summer(only for a joke...):

- Barcelona
- Amsterdam (Arena and/or Ziggodome)
- Milan
- Marseille or Lyon
- Munich, Hamburg, Cologne, Stuttgart
- Helsinki
- Goteborg
- St.Petersburg
- Chorzow
- Beograd
- Budapest
- Prague
- Dublin
- Glasgow
- London (Hyde Park and Webley or Twickenham)
- Some Festival (Pinkpop, Werchter, Roskilde)
and so on...

I'd bet they play Europe again.

Yeah they should do a queue tickets show in London where they play Aftermath UK edition or Beggars or Let It Bleed as these Albums have their roots in London. I am waiting

40 years in 2016 since the great Earls Court shows and Knebworth.

A Knebworth '76 Box with Audio/Video CD's and DVD's should be very appreciate!!!

I wouldn't be surprised if they'd play a few gigs i London next summer.
We've been spoiled with lots of tours since the O2 Arena dates in 2007 which many, including me, thought were the last ones ever. So there might still be a chance to catch a club show with the band in 2016 I hope. Shows I really would have wanted to go to most recently were The Echoplex and The Fonda in Los Angeles. Yeah, who wouldn't have wanted that btw.

If there's a french date next year, and if it's a stadium show, i assume that it would take place in a stadium recently built (Bordeaux, Lyon, Lille) or renovated (Marseille).

come to glasgow guys. its a wee cold damp place just ootside the artic circle, i know its a midden but theres many stones fans who live there.

also be nice to release the recent vaults gigs of the past on the glasgow dvd electrical circuit. we dont use thon usa leccy, it dosent travel well.
