If it were me I might consider flying into Las Vegas instead of either coast.Quote
Stonesfan2146
I am planning a trip to the West (or East) coast in the time frame of October 17 to 28. It would be so sad if the stones would be touring the east coast while I flew in from Europe to the West coast, but I have to book flights soon, otherwise it gets very expensive. So does anyone now in which end of America the stones will be then?

Especially if you are planning on attending Desert Trip (a four+ hour drive from Vegas).
Even if you're not planning on Desert Trip, they are so close to Vegas you gotta think they will be playing there to kick off (or part of) the tour.
Flights to the east or west coast are typically inexpensive from Vegas. I can fly from Seattle (and then rent car for DT) for < $100 for example.

I saw that as well Lien, and I just had the feeling something may be happening in September.
Exhibitionism is finishing it's run in London, so a gig or two to get some publicity for next venue could be happening...................I hope.

I'D wager it refers to North American tour dates. Perhaps some West Coast arena shows (Seattle/Oakland) before the big gig at Coachella, then the east coast of NA after Coachella.

CHUCK WILL BE TOURING WITH DAVID GILMOUR IN EUROPE THIS SUMMER!
From Chuck > “I was pleased and surprised to be contacted by David (Gilmour) a couple of months ago asking me if I would be available to tour with him in June and July. My first contact with David was back in 1984 when I was the Musical Director of a show broadcast on MTV called “Guitar Greats”. David was a part of that, and he was amazing. Then a few years later when I was with Eric Clapton, David invited me and some of the other members of the band to his home where we had a memorable night talking about music and life in general. To have him reach out to me now is truly an honor, and I can’t wait to start work with him and the band. My good friend, Greg Phillinganes, who I was honored to work with during some of my Clapton days will also be playing keyboards on the tour and I look forward to “tag teaming” with him again. The timing for this is perfect, as the Stones will gear up again for our “Desert Trip” shows and
.....some other activity in September and October.....

He is a good musician, a conservationist, hunts birds, and can count to four.

Wonder how it would go over if Lisa Fischer were to be the warm up act for the Stones a few times?
