We can not solve the word problems in a thread dedicated to The Rolling Stones USA Tour 2019.

I think it's as simple as the Statue of Liberty being a symbol of the United States and the Stones letting people know they will be touring the US. I don't think there's much more to read into it. But I dig it, great little video to build hype and speculation
Love the image, hope it gets translated to litho form.

Does the Statue of Liberty mean a show in MSG or Brooklyn? NJ is not NY.
The Statue of Liberty is actually in NJ. So Metlife Stadium.

For those wondering, with only 16 shows, arenas and Canada doesn't make sense.
16 stadiums allows them to stay healthy and play to almost 1 million people.
It generates approximately $100 million in ticket revenue.

I beg to differ. The Lady belongs to all Americans, of course, but it is located in NY.

To address the statue: It is physically closer to NJ. NY & NJ agreed to "adjust" the territorial waters in 18something. I believe the land the statue is on technically is part of Manhattan Island. Under the water that is.
To address the rhetoric: Any concert at Giants/Metlife Stadium is a NJ concert and that's not subjective.

If the band shows up to the States playing at the same level they left off at in the UK I may very well have to quit my job and just spend the summer catching Stones shows. 1-2 shows will be not be enough if they're firing on all cylinders

This would make a mighty fine litho!
So far we have seen no haphazard/scribbled No Filter yellow stuff and are blasting us with the classic tongue everywhere!
And while the tour itself might be an extension of No Filter w/same great stage, etc., looking forward to some changes - starting w/ the classic tongue is promising.
Dying to get the dates etched in stone...can make an educated guess, but will be nice to see it all confirmed! Currently in stage one of tour preparations in reconnaissance mode scouting out hotels, etc.
The fact that Phoenix, L.A., and SF are back to back to back makes this fairly easy, but can't count my chickens before they're hatched.
As it stands, leaning towards Phoenix and L.A. for sure, with SF being a maybe at 75%.

If Rose Bowl is on the 11th, then Santa Clara would be no earlier than Wednesday the 15th, and Seattle Sunday the 19th, assuming that is the routing with no prolonged break. Seeing as Monday the 20th is a holiday in British Columbia, it makes a convenient date for us north-of-the-border dwellers. I hope after 12 years of absence from Vancouver, they could throw us at least that. (Not that it matters to me - I can take time off from work at a moments notice).
