There is a rumour about one stadium location in California as well, a large stadium.

You’re killin me

It seems like there are optional 2nd shows for the the biggest locations like NJ/NYC, ChI, Boston, may be also CA, then there would be six locations remaining with a set of 14 shows. I have got rumours about shows in a dozen other locations so half of them are false rumours or optional locations.

Thanks Bjornulf, you’re always cautious and reliable. Still...grumble!

That sounds like BV code for Rose Bowl.

If I read this right. Say Chicago for instance. One show for sure. If it sells well they will add the 2nd show?

So what if they do not sell well. Will the tour have less shows than 14?

So not looking good for Toronto? Really seems they wouldn’t leave that city out given the history and the fact they skipped 15. I’ll go where they play obviously, but was sure hoping for one last show in that great city.

There are 6 more choices, hope Seattle is one and Toronto.

My guess would be they fill in the tour w one off shows in other cities.

It would be cool if they had some acknowledgement of the 30th anniversary of Steel Wheels - the tour that revolutionized touring for the Stones and in general. I doubt if they'll be a nod to that, however.

This year Manchester didn't sell good so they decided to add Coventry instead. They seem to have various options.

BV, can you comment on whether or not Green Bay WI is a rumored possible location for a Stones gig? Thanks!!!!

If we honor all their anniversaries it’d be 4-5 a day.
‘Steel Wheels’ didn’t work out well for some of us,
but I am grateful to be going to Denver to see my family.
Thanks Bjornulf.

Why is MSG their home? None of them lives there.
They’re a UK band. A London band. That’s some distance from MSG.

I think the Tokyo Dome is the home of The Beatles, though.
And the U Arena is the home of Pink Floyd.

They will ALWAYS be a London band.

It's just plain daft to think of them as anything else. They were formed there and all current members are born and bred natives, if you count Dartford as part of London.

Not yet. The new football stadium in L.A. won't be done till 2020. The Rose Bowl is still the biggest stadium in CA.

Levi’s Stadium?

Squat here in Toronto. Maybe if I go out to the streets with a tongue stencil...?

Place a tongue sticker by the dome and let the rumour mill begin.

Levi's stadium in Santa Clara, at the south end of the bay area, holds 90 000 (with GA floor and 360 seating), and is pretty state of the art. I attended the Grateful Dead reunion shows there in 2015, and was pretty impressed with many concession stands/amenities, incredibly large bathrooms, led screens, and general easy access in and around the stadium.
The only downside is, it's kinda far from downtown, hotels, and restaurants. There is light ground rail, though, and there is an expressway nearby, and its got a huge parking lot. Thumbs up.

Levi's Stadium holds 68,500. The Rose Bowl holds 100,000. BV said "big." Sure sounds like the Rose Bowl to me.

Not to mention that rainbow!

Sounds like the east coast tour may be not what is happening after all?

Levi makes more sense in that its 'close' (~45 min from SF?) to the Bay area which hasn't gotten a show in awhile while the Rose Bowl is LA- a few hours from San Diego which got the tour opener in 2015.

They should play at AT&T park in SF proper. F Levi's and the 49ers for moving to Santa Clara....

Agreed.

As of now the rumors are all football stadiums. Maybe the stage is geared towards that type of a venue (more oval then round) which would make sense they've been playing soccer stadiums in Europe

The 30th Anniversary of the Vegas Stones!

I vote for Jacksonville, Miami, New Orleans, Las Vegas, Houston, Denver, Seattle, Boston, Phoenix, San Francisco, Toronto, New York City/New Jersey, Chicago, Los Angeles

It is the No Filter Tour so the stage will probably be the same one we saw in Europe 2017 and 2018 as you may see on the IORR home page picture now.

Bjornulf

Really hoping for Houston but I guess it's just not gonna happen. Maybe next time.
