So, if they like to end it this way, it is their choice. I am not sure if they are doing themselves a favor.

It's so strange to just see three Stones taking a bow, that really hit me.

To paraphrase Bernard- "Who says it's ending"?

jumpingjackflash5, your monotonous boom boom boom cutting through the thread every two or three posts
is really tiresome, especially when you start busily planning what the band must/should/can do.
Let go of their ears – they know what they're doing.
I'm happy people enjoyed the show; that's what it was for.
If it was hard for us to see photos of that final bow, how hard was it for them to somehow go out there and do it.
Blessings and strength and courage on the Rolling Stones, all of them, for good.

This feels like the end. Just a feeling. They will push this too far and it will be tragic or embarrassing.

If so it's a nice looking one, but I heard from someone in the know he had hair plugs transplanted into his scalp quite a few years ago.

His dad and brother both have receding hairlines.

While the answer indicates they are willing to play further shows, it also indicates that nothing special is planned. The "anniversary" still is something that was entirely invented here.
Don't be naive, Mick knows the 60th anniversary is his last big pay day..
As if Mick needs one more big payday lol. If they so desired they could keep doing tours like this until they can't.

Mick never made it to the Big League, McCarntey 1.3 billion, look at Billionaires like Jerry Halls husband and before that she left him for Robert Sangster, another Billionaire. Mick knows money gets the girl.
Mick lost a lot of money in the 2008 crash, of course he wants more money, he wants to charge £5 million for a private show and charge up to a 800 Dollars to see him in a good seat at a concert in a stadium, of course he wants more money.
He wants to hang with Hollywood and the Elites and that comes with a price tag. Mick could live in good health for another 20 years, of course he would like a last big pay day for their 60th Anniversary and all the merchandise and acclaim that goes with it.
Plus it costs a lot to keep Mick's lifestyle, without these tours the money soon dries up, how many houses does he have to upkeep, touring is the only way Mick can continue to make the Big Bucks and he knows it.
Had Mick left the Stones in the 80s and continued to refuse to tour with Keith he would probably be broke now, Hell he might have been broke decades ago, that's the reality for Mick and Keith, they need each other for themselves and their families.

We can even complain about Keith's bonnet. What about a new thread?
The whiners definitely need to start their own thread. Don't need it here, nor in the upcoming shows. As far as Keith's hat, I've seen pics of him wearing a green one and yellow one back in March in a studio and also inside his home at Parrot Cay and on a boat in Parrot Cay, so it just didn't start for this tour.

I see the photos of both Mick and Ronnie and there hair looks real enough to me , what an absurd and stupid thing to be critiquing there hair . As far as there demise without Charlie -they have always managed to survive as they are the ultimate warriors . Also such an absurd comparison to Queen and the Doors , as they certainly are not in the same league or even the same universe as the Stones are . I was pleasantly shocked/surprised at how well they sounded and played at Gillette Stadium(one of my all time favorite venues I might add !, with some of the finest hospitality and folks ) private Kraft service party . Seriously the drummer Steve Jordan did a great job and the ultimate professional . What was of more vital concern to me was the guitar section of course and Mick . Well to me as I reported yesterday it seems the Stones -have upped there game and it showed to me in the small sample size provided by the clips posted , and I think that was a very good omen .
