Or will they still try to salvage the 2020 tour next year and cancel whatever plans they've already made for Europe?

Maybe US-Tour postponed to 2022 due to spreading of the Covid-19 Delta-variant. Tour of Europe then in 2023 for Charlie's 60th Anniversary.

If they don't tour this year, what are their plans going to be for next year (if all the rumors are to be believed)? Rumors say that they are planning to reschedule last year's tour and have already booked the venues, while also trying to book venues in Europe for a potential 60th anniversary tour next year.
If they can't tour this year, is it likely that the 2020 tour will be scrapped completely and will just start fresh with a new tour in Europe next year? There was a rumor posted earlier that they were planning to wait until 2022 in the first place, but were having a hard time booking the stadiums and decided to go for fall 2021. Or will they still try to salvage the 2020 tour next year and cancel whatever plans they've already made for Europe?

Yes, but 12-Jan-2023 will be the 60th Anniversary of his RS Band-membership. And 7-Jun-2023 will be the 60th Anniversary of the 1st RS-Single (Come On).

If they can’t do US this year, will be 2022 and Europe would shift to 2023.
The 60th in 23 in Europe would be consistent with 50 and Counting in US in 2013.
Recognizing that they did a small number of shows in 2012.

I am not seeing The Stones reschedule this year. Next Spring hopefully we will be in a much better place. COVID is getting under control ..but it is still an issue.
As well .. Ronnie may need more time. He may still be reciving treatment. He may be in a slow recovery. I do not think he is ready for this just yet.
As long as they do not get out of shape. I sincerely wish they as a band would at least get together and play with each other this late summer and fall to keep warm (... remember how rusty they got 10 years ago with a legnthy time off.. imagine now?!).
Next Spring .. May-ish with The Release of a new studio album in the Spring would be probably the final 'major' Rolling Stones venture. The world would be more ready by Spring. As well it could unofficially be 60 years. That time frame would make much more sense. We are still in COVID - ville. The shows that are going to happen this year are an after-thought. No major publicity .. World isn't ready jus yet for that hoopla and celebration / fun time yet (vibe isn't there).
IMO we are still sort of in COVID limbo. I see them waiting until Spring of 2022.
I just HOPE they get together to stay warm enough / not get ice cold to the point of a break down as was almost the case last time. Ya can't taKake lots of time off when one / a band gets this age and then bounce back fairly quickly .. if at all (and ummmmm ....mayyybe they will finish the F***G album! Lol smh).

Agreed. Seems like this is the best course of action and makes a lot of sense. I would be happy if it did happen this fall though. Mister DDDD will still maintain this fall in any event until the postponement is actually announced. It would also be better for me financially, allow more time to set aside funds for the tour.
So the question becomes, will they do the USA AND the 60th tour in the same year?

Well this is interesting - I was just reading that people who have been vaccinated with the Astra Zeneca vaccine won’t be allowed the in audience for Springsteen on Broadway, because AZ is not a US FDA-approved vaccine. This may be temporary, but it’s worth watching to see if similar rules might apply to a Stones tour. Damn.

Just reading that attendees can now be admitted if they have received vaccines in line with US FDA or WHO, which includes AZ. Hopefully this will be broadly applied.
“ The theatre behind a Broadway production featuring Bruce Springsteen says it’s now able to welcome audience members who received the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine.
Jujamcyn Theaters had previously said audience members wishing to attend “Springsteen on Broadway” needed to be immunized with vaccines approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, leaving those who received AstraZeneca on the sidelines.
But the Jujamcyn website now says it will accept audience members vaccinated with shots approved by either the FDA or the World Health Organization, meaning AstraZeneca recipients can now attend.” Toronto Star

I also felt that early on but then all the signs were that they were going to. With the Delta rearing its ugly head and a bit of a stall on new vaccinations in the US, I'm kinda thinking they won't bother as it's just too unclear. UK is backtracking it's opening and it's only going to get worse now in the US with the Delta.

I would agree - a few weeks ago I was starting to get a bit more optimistic that things were looking good for the Stones, but things have changed since then. Considering there was a possibility of an announcement a couple weeks ago, and the fact it's still being delayed is a bit deflating though not too surprising. There's variants running amok, and there's the vaccine hesitancy to name just a couple of hurdles, and to think that the Stones and their massive crew would attempt to maneuver through it seems unrealistic at this point. Maybe things will change for the better again, and hopefully sooner rather than later. Throughout this entire ordeal I've been cautiously optimistic, hopeful, and realistic, and will continue to be until the writings on the wall, and it's etched in stone one way or the other.

Unfortunately in this instance, Time is not, on their Side. It's almost July. Theoretically still possible, but the trend at the moment is all that great. If we get a post-July 4th bump in cases, I'd say that will be it.

In regard to a 2021 US/NA tour, the Stones, at the moment, only need to avoid Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Wyoming and Mississippi.
Which is not a problem per their usual shows since they hardly play those states, at least, as I recall.
