IORR Editor comments:

There are dreams, there are rumours, and there are facts. When a tour finish, like the SIXTY European Tour 2022 finished in Berlin on Aug 3, they always have plans. Was Berlin the last show ever? Will they tour Australia next? And/or Japan? How about Buenos Aires? Or New York?

They might not tour next month, or later this year, but there are talks about shows in 2023, or may be not until 2024, as we are told by spring time 2023. Feel free to post here related to what is coming up regarding Stones touring during 2023-2024.

Does anybody have any information if the Stones plan to do some dates of the Sixty tour in New York or USA, same as they did for the 50y anniversary?

I think I heard somewhere that they don’t officially plan their next tour before the current one is over. I could be wrong. I’m the furthest thing from an insider, unfortunately.

If uS gets a tour it will not be this fall but next summer according to rumours after winter in South America. Hang tight. Let the boys finish this one.

Rumours abound but NO facts. Any rumours could also be called alternative facts and we know how useful those are.

One leg/country per year. This isn't 2002 anymore.

One major jaunt and they're done till next year. These days touring is like a family vacation.

Sales are stronger in Europe but who knows if that would be the case for another 14 shows. I am sure more shows Holland / Scandanavia / Germany / Spain and maybe a seated London show would sell very well.

McCartney is an exception (and Santana / EWF is hot in many markets) but for the most part geezers aren't really coming back to concerts. There is a big chance the Stones could return again to 75% full stadiums across the board or worse.

Absolutely the new San Diego stadium would come knocking should they decide to host concerts.

I didn't knew that and had expected, that the Stones will make more money with concert tours in the US.

stadium dates would be around the NFL game schedule
looks like could do Chicago/NJ/Vegas/La in mid/late October
for example:
chicago free october 14-nov 5th
nj stadium free saturday october 22nd
only possible saturday night in vegas is october 29, november 5 or november 19
sofi stadium saturday november 5

80 year old men in 30 or 40 degree weather is not a good idea.

Any input on the SA bit, Antoine?

I don't think so. They don't play more than 14-15 shows a year anymore. Plus after 2019 & 2021 stadium tours I think they saturated this market for a while. I think next year they will focus on Asia, South America or Australia where they haven't played since 2014-16.

They might still make more money. My Stockholm ticket (which I should really get moving on moving) was about half what a comparable American ticket would be.

San Diego
a good 5 Canada stadiums
NYC x 2

and a smattering of cross promotion with new stadiums and virgin markets could still work

Could be they only fully intended to do 60 bjust ecause they (Mick n Keith) pretty much made it to the milestone, and just pack it in and Mick can move on to lucrative and career affirming projects (the movie? ugh) from here on out.

And Jimmy Buffett is playing Snapdragon Stadium!

Buffett will be the inaugural show for Snapdragon Stadium (not named after the flower).

It’s too cold then why not wait and rest til next summer. It won’t be this fall they need a long break.

Next will be South America in Feb./March next year and maybe Asia/Australia/NZ in the fall

be that Celsius OR Fahrenheit!

Global warming hasn't changed Chicago enough to gamble on another October show.

Fall US is almost impossible. The announcement would have to be before the Berlin show and this kind of overlap has never happened in this past decade. Licks and Bigger Bang had multi-market announcements but since 2012 they stopped doing that for insurance and maybe logistics purposes

They certainly planned to announce Europe 2014 while being on tour in Australia, instead it got announced while they were on a forced break because the shows had to be postponed.

So it's time to announce North Canada / Alaska tour. A bit cooler there.

4days in Florida 4 in California

Too cold where?!? October is lovely just about everywhere in America, except for maybe the upper Midwest. I’d far prefer a cool weather show than the inferno of European summer they’re going through now.

Yes, either freezing or cooking! Hey Treacle, it was this time last year we hit the huge heat dome. Sunny and warm now but not nearly as bad as last year. June 29 is when Lytton BC hit 49 celsius, hottest recorded temperature ever in Canada, hotter than Vegas ever recorded. Next day the whole town burned down.

My god. Hasn't the North American market been milked enough? Are there enough suckers left to pay thousands of dollars because they haven't heard 'Out of Time' live yet?
