It looks like the Stones are releasing the new album first and then the live shows...the new album done first, after that its all about live shows from then on.
That's the way it should be, really. Great!
And lets hope for a couple of new songs that work realy well live and deserve to be in the set on merit.

Al65Mister DDDD I totally agree with you I think a lot of people who post about decline of performance only watch videos recorded on mobile phones with terrible sound I've seen videos of shows I've attended with great preformance from the band and the video sound is terribleQuote

I was being sarcastic, i didn't need to attend 2016 shows to notice a decline in musicianship and overall performance from the footage available to me.
Having attended several 2016 shows, I would have to respectfully disagree.
Other than Mick's throat issue, there was no "decline in musicianship" or performance.. Perhaps one did need to attend the shows.
Yes I completely agree and am glad others realize this as well. The videos on YouTube, for instance, are far different than the live sound. Often the mix is
not accurate and no where similar to the live performance. This seems to be the
same with the DVD boots - often they are the same recordings found on YouTube.
Three videos are a nice souvenir but not the same sound and performance as the
live show.

This is great and exciting news. The Stones touring (playing shows) behind a new album? It ideally opens up a much brighter and vibrant future for the band and it's fans.
I know it's all gravy at this point but if the band is going to release an album and wants to play gigs to help promote it (i.e. the way it always used to be), I would think it turn out to be more than just a handful of shows in Europe.

And do not expect musicians in their 70'ies to perform like they were 20-30 years old!!

Please nothing like You Got Me Rocking, Saint Of Me, Out Of Control or Streets Of Love. That's the only four new songs after 1989 that really worked.

Why don't you want that type of songs if they worked?
I'd say Rough Justice, Back Of My Hand, Flip The Switch, LowDown, This Place Is Empty and The Worst worked extremely well in concert, too. Infamy is great on Light The Fuse.

Low Down worked well? That's why they dropped it after one appearance ;-) No audience reaction to notice on the CDs at least, but I wasn't there.

Yup, of 30 shows in 2007, it was played at 28 shows, not played in Madrid (not a single ABB song performed that night) and in Brno ("Oh no, not you again" was played instead). Rough justice indeed rocked live!

In fact they played it in 90 % of the shows 2005-2007.

You're right - it WAS played almost always on the Bigger Bang tour. (I saw them twice at Twickenham Stadium, and a third time in St. Petersburg then... Needless to say, I enjoyed 'Rough Justice' very much. =o))
But the thing is: I don't think they played it at any of the following streaks of gigs. 50 & Counting, 14 on Fire, ... That was more or less what I meant.
I think they shelved it way too soon.

I remember a perfect night, with perfect weather and a very special atmosphere on 3rd October 2003 in Switzerland [www.iorr.org]
That was GREAT.
Why not a European fall tour - the weather is changing anyway...

A good option for a gig in Holland in the fall is Arnhem, Gelredome. Saw Bruce there. Good sound, and not too many people (40.000).
