Yes, I feel ya.
It is something substantial lacking these days, thats for sure!
(Imagine if we didn´t have the IORR board to be inspired by!)

We have been spoiled with studio and live music from the Stones since the early 60's. We just need to face the facts. There will be another studio album. For Sure. There may be another show. Not for sure. Still, they have left behind decades and decades of memories. I spend more time with my family now, and less time with The Stones. May be next year, I will see the Stones once more, may be. Meanwhile, the health of family and friends, including Mick, Keith, Charlie and Ronnie, is more important for me, than just another Stones fix.

Please. You don't think they'll use the 60th Anniversary (a year and a half away) to do something major? A tour? The album? A release of something left in the vault? ABKCO involvement? The Stone days, and some of our own, are dwindling to a precious few.

They'll be back mate!
In the meantime I am so thankful we have the FTV stuff, no matter how often I watch the BA 98 show for instance I never grow tired of it. Same with the others but that one is a keeper!

I have to admit I don't watch canned Stones videos that much, as long as they are available really live, but BA 95 and BA 98 I can take any day!

Can't help but wonder if any/all of them have received their initial or final vax shots yet..
Wouldn't be like them to publicize it if they did, but as this is the key to seeing them (anywhere) again, I am hopeful they've all received at least their first shot by now.

Provided they're all healthy, they'll definitely want to do it if safe to do so. If it's not safe, they won't. Simple as that.
I hope people don't think getting everyone vaccinated will be like switching on a light. Restrictions will be lifted gradually and the infection and death rates carefully monitored. We all want normality to return but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Exactly.
And I predict that next year, we will be complaining that the opportunities to spend money on the Stones exceeds our budgets...
...the wise amongst us are already putting money aside every month to be prepared!

I appreciate all of the replies. I have actively fought to keep my employees home so I am well aware of the need and reasons to isolate. As much as I have enjoyed avoiding the politics of work (except for zoom creating its own issues) even I, who could never attend another work party or meeting and not care, am feeling the barrenness of pandemic living. Even clothing has taken on new meaning, I have decided to change into workwear so I can transition psychologically from work to home without leaving,
Visiting IORR I realized I looked forward to the stickied thread- generally a post of the next new thing...
The Arts are more than revenue vehicles, they are essential and without them we feel and act differently, at least I do. Perhaps, from this will come a new appreciation of museums, galleries, artists of all stripes...
( I have funny Mick Jagger story I heard from a co-worker I will share
soon about the Tate in London)
To everything a season...

Only just seen this topic ,and I am watching at the moment on the BBC Red button channel the Copa Libertadores football final at The Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.
Not that interesting game here in the second half now and no score.
It just reminds me of the Rolling Stones gig I was lucky enough to have seen in Rio back in 2015 I think,as well as Sao Paulo and Porto Alegre.
Great times on my only visit to South America meeting old friends, and so many new friends who were all there to see The Rolling Stones play live.
Great memories of the four gigs and meeting up with so many fans.
