Ronnie's X account posted this yesterday... promising??
Fifty years ago this month, the Rolling Stones issued a press release confirming that Ronnie Wood would be joining them on their upcoming Tour Of The Americas (TOTA).
Ronnie's first show with the Stones would take place on his birthday that year, and this year we are celebrating his 50th year with the band with something very special.

May be they will announce a new album, 2-3 singles and a world tour of 100 or so shows during the next three years. Or may be I just picked up an old paper from the seventies. To be honest, isn’t it time for a rest?

Sounds like we’re all winding down…

There is money involved in their legacy so basically they need to plan for ex post already now (I guess it's already done). Their families must be involved in this of course.
With time managent will be put in their hands. The other option would be to sell all the rights to an external part and cash in.

"I hope that the Rolling Stones org properly belongs to their heirs, and I hope those heirs are capable of preserving what is a legacy like no other. "
The problem is the fans are dying off too. They may remain a curiosity for historians but that's about it. And a final run of new music is the perfect coda instead of the 2013-2031 tour ending in Podunk.

For one thing, why would you take what Mick said seriously?
The weird and ironic - that weirdo Jim Morrison was not the singer in The Doors and the Earth is not "round"? Is that what you mean?

Concerning the possibility of late summer / fall concerts I just want to point out that in 2017 the No Filter concerts were announced in the beginning of May with first rumors starting end of April. So is a fall tour really off the table?

It's been a life-long roller coaster for me and many others on this forum. I'm just grateful for everything they've given us and will happily accept whatever the future brings. My gut tells me that the touring is over. As we lose more and more of their contemporaries, I can live with that. New album? Would be nice, but no big deal if it doesn't materialise. Anything at this stage is a bonus. Hope that newer fans can appreciate what a long strange trip this has been.
Enjoy life, guys.

In 2017 Mick was 74 years old. In the fall this year Mick will be 82 years old. At the ages of 20’s 30’s etc you don’t change much but going from early 70’ to 80’s of age do make a change, also for SuperMick and his band mates.
They may still tour, but there is more to take care of, higher risk, more rest, all those things that is happening with the human body at that age. You can not just extrapolate previous touring history into current time.
