I can't see that anything has changed.
The position remains that they will go on forever...or until further notice .

Yes, this and the next 5 tours. Isn't that what Mick said at the B2B tour press conference?

The next tours were:
- 2002-03 Licks
- 2005-07 Bigger Bang
- 2012-13 50 And Counting
- 2014 14 On Fire
- 2015 Zip Code
- 2016 Latin America Olé (not counting the fall US "tour")
- 2017-19 (so far) No Filter
That's already seven (in theory). But de facto it's more or less the same tour since 2012.[/[/b] quote]
That's the key thing if we want to sensibly and seriously consider this tired old question.
They have been perfectly aware these last few years that time is no longer on their side ... and they can't have breaks of years on end between tours any more.
It's self-evident that they've thus far elected to carry on whilst they still can, whilst ever they still for the most part enjoy it and...yes...whilst there's still some money in it.

I think No Filter is the last tour. But maybe they will squeeze in a couple of more gigs somewhere around the world. Maybe South America or Japan? But they can't afford long breaks no more.

its the old discussion again.
some think they have years left, some think this year is the last.
no one really knows, and wont till it happens.
i agree they cant afford long breaks, pity about 2007-2012, such a waste considering the level of last years tour.
i hope they continue doing these short tours, 10-15 gigs average, 2 or 3 times a year with a break in between, hopefully do this for 3 more years.
but hope they do quit at the right time and before jagger hits 80.
after they do decide to quit touring, they can open the vaults, and give us all those outtakes.
