Today is 2 weeks before Brüssel.

Is there a chance that we are thursday in 14 days FOS the band and welcome Keith ?

My head is saying No bigtime, but my heart won't give in!

Oily.

No

Gazza tells the truth!
Sadly.

Oily.

well, I hope I'm wrong - but I cant see it happening on that date

For what its worth I'd g u e s s European tour starts at earliest
- if we ever will have one on this tour - in mid- or late June.
Note its just a guessing.

Yeah, I know :-)
But being a sad, Stones desperate moron, I will still be bitterly dissapointed on Monday.
What to do???
Even the prospect of a break in Brussels and Paris isn't that appealing at the moment.
These fantasies that we get involved with!!!

Oily.

My FEELIN is:

Keith will be on Stage in Büssel and will check his condition !

After the concert the the band/Keith will decide to do Paris or not.
They also they decide to make a break or decide to do only 1 concert a week or .??.
I hope Keith feel well and the tour gies as planned.

That´s I`m thinking.

No way.

I was told (?) that people who bought VIP-packages were told (by phone) the concert is off for june 1st.
Maybe you should call the hotel included in the VIP-package and ask them if the reservations have been cancelled

Hotel Le Meridien

We're in the same state of mind, I, err . . . the same state of heart. I'm praying!

My hope for an early June tour start doesn't die before it's confirmed not to happen.

No. Brussels is off.

The Stones have cancelled their hotel booking in Brussles

So I think that means NO.

People who say that the show is off: how do you know this? Why not an official annoucement? I've called goformusic.com, the stadium en have sent a mail to rs.com. Nobody could be clear about this. However, I understand that there is a very small chance that there will be a Rolling Stones concert on june 1. But I would be sure about this.

Well, I'm still going to be disappointed on Monday.
I think we need an IORR cousellor to help the heartbroken.
Gazza is a nice sensitive type, maybe he's up for it??

Please though, not BV, too much realism, don't want to be confronting all my demons in one go!

Oily.

A lady might be nice though.......where's Jo (storm??)

Bv, any news on Paris? I would think it is off to but any confirmation would be nice to have!

Cheers,
Wuudy

Why are they still selling tickets for june 1st? Who is to blame? In case of cancellation you only get the money back of the value of the ticket. Not the other extra's (+15%). That's why maybe?

The longer time Keith is staying in Auckland the more serious it is. Both for him and the tour. There is no list of cancelled shows. They are pending. But they will not happen. That is the problem. Keith is not some sort of NHL superstar they can fly in on show day. It does not work that way.

One example. When Mick lost his voice at the Amsterdam show on the previous tour they knew he had lost his voice, but they could not cancel legally until daytime show day. Because of insurance rules and all of that. Same here. You can not cancel any shows legally until the insurance comnpany is willing to pay for the cost. Or unless they make a deal. Busy days for the organizers now.

Not only is the promoter in Brussels not sold out, but they are still sending people reminders to pay for their reservations! I have a friend that just got one in the mail this morning. He is not particularly a Stones fan but just wanted to take his family. He said "what kind of a mickey mouse outfit is this?" I had to agree that it was irresponsible to sell tickets to a show that you know isn't going to happen.

Really? Who can blame people not to pay by now? You have to pay 115 eur and only get only 100€ back. Can they do this?

Thanks for the info Bjornulf. Although I don't like the message, I will not shoot the messenger.

If Brussels is off: is the first Paris show off, too? Somebody knows?

FNAC stated last week that Paris 3rd June has been postponed and that the new date will probably be June 29 or 30 (it would probably be the 30th as they have a show there also on July 2nd)

HI,

I said that before (news I got from EMI) THE 4 FIRST CONCERT IS DELAYED

and Tim RIES concert at Paris is cancel !!!!!

Harm if the €15 is the booking fee then they usually keep it.
It says somewhere that it is not refundable on most booking sites.


"they are still sending people reminders to pay for their reservations"
What I want to know is who is selling tickets and not asking for immediate payment ??.
I have always had to pay upfront when booking tickets.

There are a few options: you can pay after you get the bill. If you don't pay within 4 or 5 days, you loose the tickets. But since it's not sold out, they send you reminders. But, at this point, can they still make you pay?

Paris is planned for June 29 I think. They looked into June 30 but then I think France is expected to be in the play-off, right?
