I don't think they will play in Wales if there's more than two London gigs. The distance between inner London and Cardiff is just 210 km. The distance between the German shows was bigger. Maybe they play not even in North England. The days are over where there was a show every 80-200 km.

Arnhem - Amsterdam was only 97 km
I don't think so. They said there would be an extended UK Tour. Surely Cardiff will get a show. Imho, the Principality Stadium is Britain's very best sports stadium and I'm not Welsh so not biased, certainly not after what happened to my own nation there last Saturday
Netherlands is VERY populous.

I don't really speculate. But if the 2018 tour is similar to the several legs 2012-17 then concerts in regions with not much population and close to a capital with multiple shows are rather unlikely. But I have no problem if they play in Cardiff or Bristol.

It's great to c u back and posting Gazz, and frequently at that!! Keep it up.

Balls it's Dublin or nothing for me cause those dates don't suite me
I'll be in London for Pearl Jam on the 18th June and then heading to Manchester for Foo fighters on the 19th June and have Billy Joel in Dublin on the 23rd June
One of those things I suppose if I'm never lucky enough too see the Stones live
Life’s about priorities! I know what I’d be choosing. Find a way!
Pretty certain the Foo Fighters will be making many more UK appearances in the future.. I'd switch the 19th out if the rumor holds..
have stuff sorted and meeting family there etc
Dublin in may would be so so good for me
wait and see i suppose
Yes I would think so. Unless the off chance they would play the O2 to close the tour.
Yes ,
Decision due: 21-03-2018
But the proposal is for óne additional concert , so the other one is happening
[www2.richmond.gov.uk]
Norwegian Air also has deals. I will be flying out of SF to but on Delta/Virgin Atlantic using miles and hoping Stones cooperate by playing before, between or right after Hyde Park shows.
A 20,000 seater where the rows go so high up that they issue warnings on the tickets for those with vertigo isnt 'intimate' by any stretch of the imagination!
Lol...sounds like the new T-Mobile arena in Vegas, but many arenas in the US can get dangerous the higher you get. I was at the United Center in Chicago about ten years ago, and went up to the highest reaches of the rafters to visit some friends in the nosebleeds prior to the show. I should have brought an oxygen mask...I felt like a mountain goat...very steep and dangerous!

Meanwhile, the concert boss was keeping tight-lipped on whether he is applying for permission to hold a fourth gig at Croke Park this summer.
But he did quash rumours he has booked the Rolling Stones for the slot, saying: “I don’t know where that came from.”
[www.dublinlive.ie]
Pissed off now really pissed off
come on, folks, who really wants an open-air show in Ireland in May?
Seen plenty of outdoor Springsteen shows in Dublin in May (1993, 1999, 2003, 2008). Its never been a problem. The only one I remember that had horrible weather was in 2009. On the 11th July.

So tomorrow is a week apperently since the Croke Park application was submitted and if it takes 3 weeks than we should knw by 22nd/23rd Feb if it goes public. Possibly it will not go public til the actual artists and date is announced??

For all those outside Ireland here's why only 3concerts a year can be held in the venue and my god the whole thing was a farce in 2014

plan on doing this for a UK show if dates suite me and theres no irish show this summer
Fly over early in the morning, go out to the stadium area for food/drinks etc and then after the show go back to the airport and get the early flight back to Dublin
Anyone ever do something like this ??
I will save money without getting a hotel room
I think Gazza may have done this b4, flying from London to Belfast after the O2 shows in 2012.
plexi
Sort of. I'd booked a hotel at a decent price near the 02 for the night of the first show when I got a bit of inside info re : the concert dates, then decided not to go once I saw the price of the tickets. Didnt cancel my room as I was willing to let someone else avail of it if they wanted. And then 3 days before the show, I decided to go after all when it was announced that Taylor and Wyman were playing so booked a flight and bought tickets below face value on e-bay. I'd no leave left from work so I had to go in the day after the gig but they allowed me to come in a couple of hours late. Intended to go straight to bed after the show but - you know how things are - ended up going out for drinks, got back to the hotel about 3, up and out around 5, got the first Tube all the way across London soon after to get a flight at Gatwick around 9.30. Into Belfast airport about 75 minutes later, got the airport bus and was in work for about 11.30.
I've a friend who goes to gigs in London regularly, but finds it hard to get weekdays off work, so he goes to the airport after the gig, sleeps for a couple of hours and gets the first flight out and is in work for about 9.15-9.30.
I wouldnt recommend it myself. I like my bed!
Considering the likely price of Stones tickets, saving £50-60 on a hotel room (if you're sharing) is pretty small beer.
It's great to c u back and posting Gazz, and frequently at that!! Keep it up.

This poster "twickerman" that posted the initial info re the Twickenham shows, followed up a couple days ago w more info.. I'm betting (literally) that the info is accurate, but looks like Mar 21 will be when they decide on permits??
His last two tweets on the topic..
Tweet from Jan 30th:
Some additional #Twickenham Stadium fixture info.
Just rugby and concerts, no NFL this year. Yay.
Some TBC (highlighted).
Are the Rolling Stones, RS, lined up for June (subject to planning permission)?
Tweet from Feb 5:
"Looks like I was wrong about 3 concerts at #Twickenham Stadium this summer. The RFU have actually applied for a 4th.
So it looks like 2 Rolling Stones (RS) gigs in June.
The planning app decision date is 21Mar so we'll have to wait til then for confirmation."

Lol...sounds like the new T-Mobile arena in Vegas, but many arenas in the US can get dangerous the higher you get. I was at the United Center in Chicago about ten years ago, and went up to the highest reaches of the rafters to visit some friends in the nosebleeds prior to the show. I should have brought an oxygen mask...I felt like a mountain goat...very steep and dangerous!
