Just went to the news section of this website - There is no mention of an upcoming US tour. Shouldn't objective evidence be considered?

Also, patiently waiting for new rumours/dates/cities to start circulating....hoping for L.A., San Diego, Vegas, and S.F..
that's just because you want to stay close to home, Hairball !!!

Last I checked SF is over 350 miles from home, while Vegas is about 320 from home, and San Diego is close to 200 miles from home - none are really "close to home" unless you're Superman faster than a speeding bullet.
L.A. is the closest, but even that's over 50 miles from home! Like last tour, keeping it all west of the Rockies - the furthest I'll venture is SF, Vegas, and maybe Phoenix if they play there again (unlikely) which would break the 400 mile threshold.
Well, a lot closer to home than any other gigs. There was a time when u were like a lot of the rest of us and traveled overseas to see the band. But there may be hope for u -- last year u went to Chicago II. You forgot about that.

Chicago II was preplanned as my wife was taking part in a conference and it was our anniversary. Just so happens it all coincided with the Stones being there, but I remember telling you all of that already. If I was going there specifically for the Stones, surely I would have gone to the first Chicago show also. As for traveling overseas, all of the times I've seen the Stones in Europe coincided with travel for other reasons, and made a couple of detours in the itinerary to see some shows- guess I've been lucky in a sense that the stars align that way. Furthest I've traveled solely and specifically for a Stones show was from L.A. to Houston in 2003 by train - had a sleeper car which was an adventure in itself. Made my way back home with stops in Oklahoma City and Phoenix, and just so happens the Stones were playing in those cities also so couldn't resist! Anyhow, the days of traveling afar to see the Stones are a thing of the distant past - been there done that. But if for some reason I happen to be in a city for other reasons and the Stones are playing, chances are I'll try to see them. Other than that, been keeping it west of the rockies, and more specifically the west coast with Vegas being the exception (or Phoenix maybe).
PS - Maybe see you in L.A. and/or San Diego.

no more traveling far to see the Stones (even Houston qualifies I guess)? You're getting old.
But yes, I have to make another southern Cal trip to do more research on Little Big Man in the spring or summer. It's open ended so hopefully I can make all that synchronize together. (I, too, have managed to sync up a lot of Stones shows with work travel over the years. Conservatively, at least a dozen shows. Help pay the tour bill.) And MAYBE we can visit for longer than five minutes like we did at the Hollywood Bowl at the Who show in October!!

Well, he needs to play it.
The setlist should change quite a bit this year. Otherwise I would have very little interest in this tour this year.

Festival, Ottawa Jazz Fest runs June 19th-July1st no line up announcement yet,
last year I believe the headliners were announced before Christmas
just throwing it out there
This would make the most sense to me or something similar to this.
Can’t see Summerfest happening again due to too low of a capacity.
If San Diego ends up at Qualcomm, I’d imagine the rest of the dates are stadiums and not baseball parks, even with the Citifield rumor.

Well we visited more than five minutes in Santa Clara, maybe ten minutes, but maybe that was enough? And are you always annoying, or just when you post replies to me lol.
Just kidding plexi - hope to see you (briefly) somewhere down the road.
PS - We're all getting old - especially the Stones.

Any further update on a London date?
No shows in Europe this year, only 15-16 US dates from May-July.

Not that I've heard, but another city pops up almost every day. I'd love Vancouver - I haven't seen the Stones in the Pacific Northwest yet. Edmonton would be fun too. The seven I mentioned aren't 100% confirmed - but they're getting close to or are in the 90's.

No arenas this tour. Only stadiums and a possible festival.
Which festival are they supposed to play?
That I don't know. I was talking recently to a guy who works for the sound company the Stones use on tour (Clair Global) and he said from what he heard it will be a similar stadium tour to last summer with different cities, but he mentioned there might be a festival thrown in too. Jazz Fest, Bonaroo and Coachella are out as they have already announced their lineups so we'll have to wait and see if that happens.
Maybe Summerfest in Milwaukee again? I have a hard time picturing the Stones playing any festival in the US outside of Jazz Fest, but maybe Summerfest would technically be a festival date with individual performance at the amphitheater. Food for thought.
Why not? Springsteen, McCartney and U2 have all played at Bonaroo before.
Elton John did it one year and Billy Joel another year, too.
Personally, I would not be hoping for Bonnaroo. You have to buy a four day pass and travel to the middle of nowhere to stand in mud in one of the hottest months of the year. Tickets are already on sale so I don't see how they could add the Stones and get all their fans in. They would get to play in front of lots of new fans, though.
Give me Atlanta and a brand new climate control dome and the option of a nice hotel room within a five minute walk any day.
