No Tv headlines from the most important channels in Spain right now about the new European Tour of the Stones, NADA, maybe tonite.
No news for ticket sales from Gamerco,El Corte Ingles, Viajes Halcon, Ticktackticket or servicaixa, lets wait.
By the way just bought airline ticket to Madrid Concert, June 28th, who´s going? I though going to Barcelona but prices went up very fast and they are more expensive than usual from Tenerife.
And for the rumours of those fans Metallica doing something with the Stones in Madrid, they play in Lisbon same day, maybe some surprises for San Sebastian 23rd or Barcelona 21st, rumours I listened on the radio a couple hours ago.
IN SHORT, NO TICKET SALES INFORMATION BY THE MOMENT.
Keep you inform all the time.

Have booked flights from Beatle City (Liverpool) to Barcelona with Easyjet for myself and 2 sons (aged 20 & 17 years). Flights were quite cheap when I booked just after the webcast but they are rising as we speak.

Taking them to witness some real culture! (i.e. The Greatest Rock n Roll Band of all time).

Carlitos, could you please keep us posted as to any information about ticket sales for Barcelona?

Thanks

Si, I´ll keep informing you every minute, buy airticket they are rising very fast, besides June is the begining of High Season, hurry up!

Carlitos,

I was at that show in Madrid, 27-06-2003

Great memories!!!

As we say in ESPAÑA, "De Madrid al cielo", any fan from Madrid?

The Rolling Stones confirma 27 conciertos por Europa, cuatro de ellos en España

A la segunda va la vencida.
Barcelona (21 de junio), San Sebastián (23), Madrid (28) y El Ejido (Almería, 30) son los cuatro conciertos españoles que se integran en la gira europea de The Rolling Stones para este 2007. La formación acaba de hacer públicas las fechas de su nuevo tour a través de una rueda de prensa virtual en la que Mick Jagger ha contestado a las preguntas de sus fans.
Por NACHO HERRERO /los40.com Madrid (22/03/2007)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

El estadio Olímpico de Montjuïc, el de Anoeta, el Vicente Calderón y el estadio de Santo Domingo serán los recintos que reciban a Sus Satánicas Majestades. Valladolid ha sido la ciudad más perjudicada ya que no ha vuelto a los planes del grupo después de la cancelación del pasado año.

De momento, los Stones no han confirmado cuando se pondrán a la venta las entradas para asistir en directo a estos eventos.

Una nueva oportunidad

"Sentimos muchísimo la cancelación de todas nuestras actuaciones en España del pasado año, pero realmente no pudimos solucionarlo. Ahora estamos deseando volver". Con estas palabras se disculpaba el vocalista y líder de la banda en nombre de The Rolling Stones por la supresión de todas las fechas españolas de 2006 con motivo de su Bigger Bang Tour.

Entonces, primero Keith Richards, al desplomarse de un cocotero, y luego Mick Jagger, aquejado de una grave afonía, daban al traste con los planes de miles de aficionados en Valladolid, El Ejido, Barcelona y Madrid.

La nueva gira europea arrancará el 5 de junio en el Festival Werchter, que se celebrará en Bélgica, y se clausurará con una espectacular actuación en el estadio O2, en Londres, el 25 de Agosto. Entre medias, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ron Wood y Charlie Watts ofrecerán 27 directos.

Vuelven los Rolling Stones...
On Spanish Tv tonite,

Very interesting comments from Mick tonite in a interview with Spanish TVE, Mick said the situation in Spain was a disaster, Keith-coconut and Mick larinjitis, also said many people never believe me, I assure you was real, why I went to cancel that concert without a good reason, in fact I started to get sick before heading Portugal, at that time there were a lots of burning at the forest(Port) and that affects me more, and when I arrived to Spain, I couldnt speak, if you cant speak you cant sing, i can assure that was true, and there´s no conspiration, I dont do that, he also said prohibited Keith Richards to climb up any coconut tree.I hope spanish fans forgive me for the cancellations and hoping to coming see us Barcelona, San Sebastian, Madrid y El Ejido.

Sorry for the images I am still awake and cant sleep, you can see on the video later I am downloading its true, I recorded in a tv doesnt have cable just ants.I recorded at 3:20 am over here at the Canaries, 4:20 in the Peninsula.
Still have to wait a little bit for the video 40% done...

Thanks Carlos. I'm in Perth, Australia. I know nothing about Spain. But Barcelona is familiar because of the Olympic Games, so I thought that's where I thought would like to see a concert.

Cliff

Carlos, a que hora llegas??? Llego a barajas a las 8 15 de la mañana del jueves, y me voy el viernes a las 8.10........ Que planes tienes??

Os veo en Madrid y probablemente El Egido o San Sebastián o...!!!!!!!!!!!

GOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDDD NEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWSSSSS!!!

Mil gracias Carlos, tomo nota de tu email para California (quizá allí también tengamos opciones de ver a los Stones)!!!!

Spanish TV news suck big time.
Here in Barcelona (Catalonia) the TV news explained with all kind of details the Stones tour, although nothing about ticket sales

My friend of Gamerco have told me during the week end or next week, they are going to say with all details when ticket sales will begin, as I said during the week, [www.servicaixa.com] be the most secure place to buy tickets.
I arrive in Madrid the 27th and leaving the capital 29th, would love to go othere cities but I have to work, if you want we can keep hung up in Madrid, any ideas to stay there, contacted some nice hostales in downtown,

Carlos, depende del presupuesto que tengas y de lo que quieras hacer además en Madrid. Creo que hay un NH cerca del calderón, y los NH siempre están bien. En general todo Madrid está bien comunicado por metro, pero teniendo en cuenta la hora a la que terminará el concierto, te recomiendo un hotel bien comunicado con la línea que lleva al calderón (metro pirámides, por ejemplo, línea verde). Según esto, hoteles por la zona de Gran Vía o Callao te irían bien.
