Axel Foley and Robocop discovered a plot by the Stones to smuggle Deutsch marks into the country, and foiled it. Great detective work, Axel and Robo!

There is no deutschmarks anymore since 2002.

So Axel and Robo are not the smartest. Are you their boss?

My guess is that the stage you wish to see the Rolling Stones play on is going to be in Regina Saskatchewan on Oct. 6th and 8th, the week when the Stones should or could logically be playing Detroit. The Detroit Lions have two away games on Oct 1 and 8th but play at home at Ford Field on Oct. 15th, so everything a few days before and after that date is no good. Then they will be on the other stage in Chicago on the 11th. So my guess is if they are doing the touring-with-two-stages thing, then unfortunately for you, the Saskatchewan stage is headed West for Seattle while the Chicago stage is headed south because it's needed in Texas for El Paso. Then again, the stadium in Detroit is open on the 29th, but that is when the Stones themselves will be in Atlantic City and New York doing the Bill Clinton thing and who knows, I guess the stage will be on its way to Vancouver by then maybe. So I guess the stages are simply headed in the wrong direction or on the wrong days for you guys.

But I agree it is weird, they do not seem to be playing many of the big predictable cities of the US at all...

Do not panic!! Word is that Windsor is still in the in the running for a show. And Windsor is just 5 minutes fron Downtown Detroit. They will probably use Windsor Raceway. Rumour has it betwwen October 11(Chicago) and 17(Seattle). Keep your fingers crossed.

Because artists feel obligated to let Kid Rock join them on stage for a number

Ill be in The Hague Holland the whole year and they wont play here either.

Altough I think they should end the tour here because this was there first real live performance in Europe ('64)

Nicos, last week they opened a new Event Area (one of these undefined open spaces) in Delft, Rotterdamseweg. So I am pretty sure that The Hague wont have a show in 2007, because the Stones will play Delft. And they will visit the Nieuwe Kerk and the Prinsenhof too.

I'll make sure I'll get you some tickets, and you can sleep at my place because the trip to The Hague would simply be onverantwoordelijk op dat uur van de nacht.

See you in 2007!

Sluissie, your my friend because you know all about "onverantwoordelijk".
