Christiaan, I thought that was two different accounts, not a name change per se.
Not familiar with IG tho because I'm not really on it - can you see a name change history for an account?
Or are you saying that while they set up the @hackneydiamonds account in April (apparently around the same time the website address was registered and the Twitter account was set up) they just thought "screw it", went out and set up another one, @hackneydiamonds2023, just now?

This one was first registered April 2023, but now changed as registered August 2023. Strange??
Yep. Hope someone will stop this sh*t.Quote

Is having Watt a co-writer a good sign?
The greatest RnR-band on Earth needs a co-writer and non-Stones related guests .... indeed mixed emotions.
And then there's the questions regarding whether Andrew Watt plays any guitar and/or other instruments on the new album.
On the recent Iggy and Ozzy albums, not only is he producer, but he's also credited on some tracks with guitars, vocals, keyboards, piano, bass, strings, co-writer, etc. - even as a photographer for the Ozzy album!
Along with getting co-writing credits on three new Stones tunes that we know of, having him stamp himself all over the place could be yet another reason why Keith had some issues with Andrew Watt.
Someone posted a video in the old thread of him "shredding" guitar while performing with Miley Cyrus, and can't imagine how any of that could possibly fit on a Stones album. But if so, it is what it is.....

He might even get a credit for leaving his finger prints of Mick Jagger's door handle ...
(Weren't that a cool credit, for once?)

Did not find anything of the sort. Taken down already? Didn't think Amazon would carry pirated stuff.

Camping outside the Hackney Empire Theatre to see if some equipment with the RS logo/name on it is brought in.

I will certainly keep an eye on the Empire, what are the rumoured dates?

The album announcement itself could be Sept. 5-7, but who knows when/where they would do rehearsals if there's something live.

My guess is that they’ll use the Empire for a press conference.

Amazon appears to have an indifferent attitude to selling bootleg material. I see many recordings that Discogs properly identifies as unauthorized and blocks from sellers being able to list, that are blatantly being trafficked plain as day there. eBay similarly lets a lot of bootleg material be listed. It’s surprising that Amazon gets away with it.

The whole RS Touring-Band is following the Hackney Diamonds account on Instagram with the Empire Theatre picture - [iorr.org] . Could also speak for something live.
They could do a "mini-show": starting live with 'Satisfaction' and 'Shattered'. When the band is off-stage, a small video trailer appears and introduces the 'Hackney Diamonds' theme. Then follows the album announcement and some interviews. After that they play the first single live (e.g. 'Angry') and as a finale 'Gimme Shelter'. Without the Stones then a pre-listening of the new album for the guests. Maybe nearby an after party to finish off. Just an idea and again, many possibilities.
