It is my understanding that if the show was rescheduled, people would not receive refunds on their tickets as the tickets were to be used for the rescheduled show.
Wrong, as others have already pointed out.Quote

Second, if the Stones never do the U.S. again, I can't blame them. The so called fans in the US bitch and moan too much ... they're tired of the same old setlist, the prices are too high, they didn't put on their best concert, etc. etc.
We are the ones who bitch about the setlist because we've heard it 100 times. The average concert goer does not moan because he wants to hear the greatest hits.Quote

The Stones had said about 2 years ago that they would no longer do arena shows ... only Stadium shows. Since a stadium has a larger capacity, the tickets can remain someone reasonable. They also said that they would never do Vegas again because Vegas had no Stadiums.
When and where did they say this? Don't think they did.
Yes, everything in that post is wrong. If you have a ticket to a show that does not take place on the day of the show you get a refund even if the show is rescheduled. The fact that a scalper/reseller might not refund you their profit is irrelevant. That's why tickets have face value. And the idea that the Stones touring plans might be affected by fans complaining abut setlists on a website is ludicrous. They make lots of money playing their greatest hits. That is what people want to hear. And hardcore fans want to see more rarities. It's the same with every band. But please don't think that anyone cares what is said here by a handful of fans, or that posters here represent "US fans," who gladly pack stadia to hear the greatest hits.
seriously,how in the hell did those guys thumbs up that pile of shit.i was trying to just ignore it and hope he'd go away.
people get things wrong sometimes but when you just make things up-"the stones said 2 years ago they would no longer do arena shows only stadiums" no they fcking didn't
"they said they wouldn't do vegas again because they had no stadium" again,uh NO...
you wouldn't blame them if they didn't do the U.S again because the "so-called fans" bitch and moan too much"-REALLY? you mean those"so-called fans" who bought the 70 million albums and 1.5 billion dollars in concert tickets or are you talking about some other "so-called fans"
your point about "the stones taking so much flak" for cancelling vegas 1 is also complete bullshit.the fans actually complained very little considering how much they had to go through when that show was nixed.
so they should just keep playing the same songs over and over but go to different locals that haven't seen them as much?great, so be a travelling vegas lounge act with the creativitiy of a jukebox,great idea...you may have set an iorr record for wrong in one post.i'm gonna come up with a "single post wrong"award in your honor.
and that cher thing...cher...,@#$%& CHER?

The conditions at desert storm were awful ... the heat and dust blowing everywhere. You could see Mick struggling, especially on Angie, on the 2nd weekend. Many, many people who attended Desert Trip also ended up with laryngitis, sore throats, loss of voice, etc. The desert was a poor choice for this whole thing.

"We’re told the invitation, which went out via FedEx a few weeks ago, was a small box containing a white rock with the printed words: “Gillette Stadium Tuesday Evening October 25, 2016. Very Special Live Performance by The Rolling Stones.”
Hmmm. That gets you in the door? ;-)
(And somebody get Matt Lee an original)

Everyone can speculate, that's all it is at this point.
But i think it is true that when the Stones play their last show, we will not know until after the fact. They will not announce anything in advance. There just will not be any more, whenever that is.
