...9 years here in Sweden. Between 1973 (Gothenburg) and 1982 (Gothenburg). The second longest would be 8 years between 1982 and 1990 (Gothenburg).

So, what about your country?

Which means you’ve seen every show in Norway in your lifetimethumbs up. I don’t know if you’ve ever met HeartforStones but he’s from Oslo and was at those 1965 shows. I don’t believe he saw all of the 1st show grinning smiley

Actually, I was in LA in 1998 (a wedding, and I was the best man), so I missed that show in Oslo sad smiley

And here are the votes for the Netherlands:

1976 - 1982
1982 - 1990
1990 - 1995 (still not too bad)

But with 6 shows in 1998 they made up for it very well!
And 6 shows (including Vredenburg!) in 2003 even more so winking smiley

2007 - 2014

I don't follow you there, Stonesstein. Surely, the longest RS tour break in the USA is between 1981 and 1989.

They haven't played Northern Ireland since 1965!!! At least the South has had a few shows since then. I was there in 2018.

I'd really love to say that I threw that out there to see if anyone was really paying attention, but, alas, that wouldn't be true.

I missed it. Flat missed it. Thanks to y'all for being gracious!!!

Didn't he get detained at customs entering Japan because of his checkered past on one of those?

Well, he said, “watashitachi (we)”, not “watashi (I)”.
Mick’s solo show 1988 is not The Rolling Stones concert, obviously.

As for 1973, go to Wiki;

“On 8 January the Japanese Foreign Ministry said Mick Jagger would not be allowed into their country due to his prior drugs convictions.”

“Next up on the schedule were a number of shows at the Budokan in Tokyo, running from 28 January to 1 February, for which 55,000 tickets had already been sold. But on 27 January, Japanese officials made a final confirmation of their decision to not let the Stones land; the shows were scrapped and the concert promoter had to refund all the tickets.”
