Why should they play four shows with 20.000 people per concert if they can have a stadium show and play to the same 80.000 people all at once?
They could be more independent of the weather conditions in an arena and could play shows beyond the summer - e.g. like NYC/NJ in December 2012 or Tokyo in February 1990.
And then they would finally play Alaska! From what I understand Keith prefers colder weather anyway..
I don’t think there is one person in Alaska that likes The Stones. Too bad.
I’m just thinking. Eric Clapton played at the Sullivan Sports Arena, Anchorage, on 14 October, 1985, on his way back from the Japan tour. To this day, it remains his one and only Alaskan concert. Back in the day, when British rockers toured Japan, they needed to travel via Anchorage, unless they flew in from North America or Oceania as part of a larger tour. After the Soviet Union broke up, they could fly over Eurasia to visit Japan, which served as a great benefit for them.
Sadly, with Putin’s War commencing, the Eurasian route has become unusable, again — for the time being, at least. I wonder if the Stones could give a chance to the Alaskans on their way to (or from) Japan/Oz/NZ like they did to the South Africans in 1995 and the Arabians in 2014.
Are there any IORR forum members in Alaska?
