Do we really know Keith's been cleared to fly? It seems like the articles I read mentioned "a source" as saying that, but who was that source? I know it wasn't Keith or RS Inc.

But - as Bv also point out below this posting -
the flight is also the needle's eye in this proces.

That all sounds TOO bad. If the tour might start at the beginning
of July or end of June - we should just be satisfied as it seems.

I don´t think that they will confirm new dates.i think they will cancell or announce new dates for USA.
For me they are great liars!
The problem is the brain of Keith!If he uses a plan in high altitude the brain will be greater and als the pains.

BV - Where did you get that info (That he's still in NZ)? The Horsens promoter got it from the Stones' management. So maybe the management of the Stones are lying through their teeth (Wouldn't be the first time).

JumpingKentFlash

So who do you trust, the Horsens promoter or me? And who says the Stones management is lying? It is all according to the Horsens promoter. And guess what, no other promoters is saying this. And for the record, I never tell anything about my sources, plus they are usually many, not just one.

Bjornulf

Frank Panduro never lied (Except when he said that Horsens didn't have the space to house the Stones). I'm telling you: If he says that they had confirmation from The Stones' management, I'll believe it. The Stones' managaement could easy be lying about this. Come to think of it, it's the only possibility. You say he's in NZ and Frank Panduro says he's flown to the U.S. Given that your insider contacts go further than the Stones' management (Which they probably do), I'd think that he's in NZ as he says. But Panduro's sources must be lying then.

JumpingKentFlash

Hey, easy Kent ) ...
Maybe the Panduro guy only misheard, or his source did.
As I got it, medical routine after a blood clot is no flying
within a week after a surgery or a week after one has left the hospital.
My mom were to be stuck at Canary islands (not the worst place to be)
after such a clot. To compare even close; I am a Migraine Man: I would
certainly n o t go for a 11-12 or whatever-hour flight with a
pounding headache to start with.
The crucial here is the 22nd and that it is a tough flight;
apart, of course, from Keith's health.
Let us keep on prayin and crankin some country, blues, rocksteady,
ska and a h*ll of a lot of reggae...

Cool down, Kent. Give your faithful credit to BV, even though Horsens Promoter is honest in his deeds. Horsens is surely going to take place in 2006, or 2007.

Yeah, how about a winter tour with semi-small venues?
(wishful dreamin, but that necessary from time to time)

tim ries wrote back to me - i asked him before keith's accident about the rolling stones project schedule. he said he is also waiting for the announcement next week.

I will tell you 100% for sure the false information about Keith flying to USA on Wednesday May 17 was NOT coming from the Stones management.

Bjornulf

BV, your opinion about the date of tour start?

A winter tour!!??!

And it sure been a cold, cold winter
And the wind ain't been blowin' from the south
It's sure been a cold, cold winter
And a lotta love is all burned out

It sure been a hard, hard winter
My feet been draggin' 'cross the ground
And I hope it's gonna be a long, hot summer
And a lotta love will be burnin' bright

And I wish I'd been out in California
When the lights on all the Christmas trees went out
But I been burnin' my bell, book and candle
And the restoration plays have all gone 'round

It sure been a cold, cold winter
My feet been draggin' 'cross the ground
And the fields has all been brown and fallow
And the springtime take a long way around

Yeah, and I wish I'd been out in Stony Canyon
When the lights on all the Christmas trees went out
But I been burnin' my bell, book and candle
And the restoration plays have all gone 'round

Sometimes I think about you, baby
Sometimes I cry about you
Lord well well well

Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you
Sometimes I wanna keep you warm
Sometimes I wanna wrap my coat around you
Sometimes I wanna burn a candle for you...

COME ON GUYS...I LOVE THE 4 OF YOU!

Little Queenie, are you around? I have a question..

Sure. I believe that. But on the other hand I can tell you that it is 100% sure that it is true that the info came from The Rolling Stones' European management. It even says so in the newsletter.

That's right, bv. Even though they try to harm the surgery it was a life threatening situation as it could have been a blood clot what I think so far. So even if Keith might be out of hospital he is not capable of flying which says it all.

So I hope Keith will fully recover and we'll get our tour sooner or later.

As posted on Shidoobee: [p081.ezboard.com]
(5/19/06 2:28 pm)
"People who bought a package "bus + ticket " for the 1st Paris show on the french ticketing service France Billet received a letter today, confirming that the show is delayed."

well..its good to see the package fans have been taken care of and informed

heres hoping that rs.com will tell the other 70,000 + fans about the delay at least 24 hours before showtime - although I expect the news to be 'broken' on their site sometime around mid June when theyve a new bit of merchandise to sell

See also my post on the Brussels show may 18th. VIP-packages "fans" were already told the show was off.Yet, they are still selling tickets for june 1st.

????????????????????????????????

I said this before on another thread and I'll say it again.
The fact the Brussels promoter is still selling tickets for June 1st is a serious misrepresentation if not outright fraud. They have also told those who asked that if you cannot go to the makeup date (assuming there is one) that you would not get the service charges refunded!
Any first year law student in University could write up a serious class action law suit.

I have posted the info on shidoobee yesterday about the Paris show and i realize that i was wrong. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Here is my update

"Guys, i realize my previous post was wrong. In fact the letter comes from a big bus company, A4, which speciality is travels all over Europe for tourism or musical and cultural events.

Nothing to do with a ticketing service. Sorry.

This company sent a letter to its customers, confirming that the show is delayed, and that due to uncertainty about the new schedule, they are not sure to be able to propose something for the new date. They also say that they have been told about the cancellation / postponing officialy 10 days ago".

Thanks for the update JJF59. Oh boy - sparks will fly.

i'm still real confused about this anticipated may 22nd announcement -
i read Jumping Kent Flash's original post that the Horsens promoter said he expects to hear something on may 22nd at the earliest -
then shidoobee picked it up without mentioning either Horsens or the "at the earliest" part,
then that got repeated here on this thread. is there some Stones Inc source who has said that on may 22nd
there will definitely be an official announcement, and if so that it will be about more than the first few shows??
thanks for any insight about where this information is coming from ... if it isn't just us playing "telephone" with JKF's post.

Keith, be well - all the way, baby, all the way

with sssoul-

tim ries said "next week" in his email to me - that sounds hopeful to me...

cool, thanks Little Queenie. did he say that the entire new schedule will be announced next week?
i just wouldn't want people going ballistic if they're basing their expectations just on misunderstandings of what was said -
hope you see what i mean.

Keith, be well - all the way, baby, all the way

I don't think we can expect an entire new schedule be announced directly. Different shows will take different time to sole and it'll be impossible to keep all secret for a "entire new schedule announcement".

Fran Curtis, Jo Wood and Marlon Richards all say "Keith is fine", so what are they waiting for?
