More and more I get the feeling something's terribly wrong and no show at all will be played.
Think of it: (almost) no information, no recent pictures, no interviews, no rehearsals, no stageparts seen in Europe until now and the kick off should be within two weeks...

I don't know but my intuition gives me bad signs...

got an email from the lovely folks at RS.com today informing me that all is well.

theres no need to rehearse this far in advance for a new tour 'leg'. they rarely do more than a few days

another RS.com lie?

Last I heard the stage was in Belgum where they are no longer playing.

Or has it been moved ??.

The crew are set to leave for Europe later this week, surely they do not book them flights and accom then not show up ??.

Don't expect rehearals to start until a week before July 11th, at the earliest.

Keith has been out and about seems he is looking good or as good as he can look.

Ronnie will be in and out of rehab for the rest of his life.
He cannot just have one drink without going on a binge,then he goes to dry out,been doing this for a long time now so its nothing new.

Only way he will break this circle is to never touch alcohol again and He has to want that for himself not because of a tour or other people.

Of course there'll be a tour!

No 2007 tour, but a 2006 Europe Tour.
That's what we've been told, that's what we believe untill we hear something else.
Sick and tired of speculations, it's been that way since late april, when Keith fell down.

What do stage-parts have to do in Europe two weeks before the tour starts?

Not lies, but they've been short of info. I bet they've done their best to get this right.

It's a bit early, but there should be stages/parts on their way soon.
Bet there'll be one stage in Italy, and one in Austria about 10th of July.

So Austrians and Italians keep your eyes open!

the stage-parts have to be in europe two weeks before the tour in order to go over set lists, make arrangements as to what set part will play a bigger part, etc...

They have been stored at StageCo in Belgium since they were transported from the Japan shows in April.

get used to the weather and the food...?

Yeah, to the weather for sure. Maybe, if it is very hot in Milan, the stage will be even bigger than in the US, and it it is even hotter than hot is grows so big you'll hear a big bang. But f thats the case, it is NOOOO good...

the stones will tour this summer no doubt, they would never just go out with a wimper and just quit, i think we are all gonna be shocked how good the euro 2006 tour will be after all the doubt , including myself
