I would expect only 3 songs in the 12-13 minute they will get. In 2002, U2 was able to get in 3 songs, Beautiful Day, MLK and Where The Streets Have No Name. The fact that MLK is under 2 minutes long allowed for them to play the 5-6 minute Streets.
I believe Paul McCartney got in 4 songs this year because his songs like Drive My Car and Get Back clock in around the 3 minute mark.
For the Stones to get in even 3 songs, they will have to average 4 minutes per song, so that means no long drawn out standard run throughs of Satisfaction and Brown Sugar.
My guess is that all 3 of the songs will be warhorses, but perhaps it will be 2 warhorses and 1 new song. If you guess the songs will be Tumbling Dice, Brown Sugar and Star Me Up, you'll probably be guessing pretty acurately.
