Ah, Mick likes to control everything. You need to ask him.
Still no British Stadiums available to host no Filter shows in UK. Utter BS.
there are at least 5 Major Stadiums that could easily accommodate a RS show at short notice in 2017. Glasgow Hampden - London take your pick. Wales Cardiff Millenium. Republic Of Ireland Aviva. North of England Newcastle - Manchester - Leeds.

I don't know why they don't , but over the years the Stones have had some great support acts like Sheryl Crow, Primal Scream and The Black Crows.
I always get the feeling that Stones audiences are very indifferent to support acts, almost uninterested even. Its like they have come for the main event and that's what matters.
Just one of those things i guess, and i can only comment on the Shows that i have seen. Perhaps it's a London thing. I think its very difficult for acts to support the Stones, they don't get to use that amazing sound system, or the lighting or anything else. Its a tough act to precede imho.

maybe he read that it is not allowed to bring food into the venue and now he feels that nobody will throw tomatos at him this time…?

They played I think five or six nights in L.A. in 1989 at the massive Coliseum. They needed Guns and Roses to fill seats for that many shows. Maybe they don't need opening acts any more. They certainly treat them badly. The sound is about half what it is for the Stones. Who knows, maybe they don't want to pay a cent more than they have to these days. They're trying to scoop up all they can.

Lucky Arnhem - Leon Bridges is a fantastic young talent of the Sam Cooke, Otis Redding school of soul. His album Coming Home is great.
