Of course it's greed. Many bands make a good living touring stadiums, or even clubs.
And many, many people in life make career decisions that don't involve maximizing revenue.

Forgot about that one powerage, and while I wasn't there, a majority of people who were said the same.
Blame it on Timberlake....

All of this discussions is interesting.
But what I am still in absolute awe is, is the fact, that The Rolling Stones can be considered to add yet another tour to their history.
It's like a wonder. Actually, I don't care where they play, as long as they do play.
Can't wait for another announcement!

I imagine we will find out in the not too distant future. Did the last No Filter announcement not come out around the US Thanksgiving?
Yes, but it was weirdly early - like there was a risk of a leak, to my mind - I wouldn't expect any official announcement until well into new year (Feb/Mar), but that is speculation on my part.

Deadline for announcement might be when ever Jazzfest is traditionally announced.
That is if they are planning on performing there.

Of course? From where do you know that? That's grown from your own mind.
And I don't agree.
Why?
It's simple: if you were above 70 and well done with all, financially secure - why still travel, why still bother with all the let downs of touring?
If the band tours, it has to be financially viable, otherwise there won't be any tour - as simple as that.
But all that wouldn't happen, if they weren't true musicians, if they wouldn't truly love to play for fans and themselves.
I mean really ...

Hey everyone
What is the situation regarding a potential end of tour show in London? Is that still a rumour?? I'd love to see the Stones live here again. Seen them 7 times already but just can't get enough of this incredible band.
Is Wembley stadium a possibly? Can't believe Mick and the boys have not been there since it re-opened 12 years ago

Have you seen a concert by any artist there since the rebuild? The sound is poor in most parts of the stadium. It has an echo. I do believe the Stones will return to London for Stadium shows at some point but it won’t be there.

How about 14 shows at MSG? Or 14 shows at Roseland Ballroom? I don't think so. It is unfair to all those fans who can't afford $600 to $1,000 tickets at MSG, and to all those who do not get a ticket, when shows sell out in minutes, rather than hours.

Been a couple of years since I've been to Hawaii.
My wife and I used to go two-three times a year - might be a good time to go back...ALOHA!

T-Mobile Arena in Vegas would make sense as a residency. Vegas is a destination for world travelers. It might make financial sense but I think The Stones still like conquering cities as they tour. The band might lose their sense of urgency to impress and grow stale.....I loved the last tour and was planning on going to New Zealand but the States would be much simpler. Wherever it is I have to go. How amazing it is to have first seen The Stones at 18 and then at 57 with a chance for more shows!!!!

I was there,,
It wasnt that AC/DC stole the show,,,
it was a long hot day, and by the time the stones came on, most were worried about transportation, as Toronto does not have the best transportation system where the show was located ,,
