Steel Wheels was the name of the 1989 tour, and the ten shows in Tokyo Japan 1990. When they took the tour to Europe 1990, they had a new tour name and concept - Urban Jungle. Exception was the two final shows, delayed until the end of August, where they brought back the Steel Wheels stage and all of the IMAX cameras, to film the IMAX movie. Often they find a nearby place out of the city, wher

This is the Norwegian Sailors Church in San Francisco, where the Norwegian flag is next to the flags of Sweden and Denmark. I don't think anyone want that flag removed. You will find the Norwegian flag in any city in USA I guess, in fact I am told that there are more "Norwegians" living in USA than in Norway, because many left for farming and a better life a hundred or so years

If you don't see the difference in a large blue X with white stars, and a blue cross, then it is time to see a doctor. We used to have a dog who had problems with his seeing at old age. Early morning, when there was a man walking towards us in a distance, carrying a suitcase, our dog started barking, because he thought the man was walking another dog (the bag). As the man came closer, an

They have not performed their last live show yet. The next show is the best show, we just have to wait a bit to see them, and we probably have to travel a bit.

Four weeks before the drive-in show Keith will drive from his home to the rehearsals place, Mick, Charlie, Ronnie and the rest will do the same, all in cars, and they will stay in their cars rehearsing, because after all, they are not in the same cohort. I will probably have to bring a car too, because I love to hang around for the rehearsals. There will be a lot of cables around, in and out of t

Darryl did the final bow with Mick, Keith, Charlie and Ronnie at the last show in Rotterdam during the 1995 tour. I printed that photo in IORR 25. It was a very sentimental final bow. The tour was over, and Darryl was now one of the five, for one final bow.

The Rolling Stones are a band from UK. That is the only reason why I state, in an optimistic way, that they should be able to perform at some point in UK. To avoid any misunderstandings, I will delete any and all posts related to or mentioning the corona virus here, simply because they lead to endless political discussions.

At some point next year, or the year after, they might look into performing live. Then they will talk Keith into going to UK, and perform live on home ground. That is my wish, my dream, and my hope for the Stones future.

We have laws and a strong legal system in Norway, protecting the consumers. I will use that system to get my money back. It is not about the money, but about the ethics.

The ticket industry is sitting on "postponed" concert ticket values worth quite a bit of money, taking it as an unapproved illegal loan from ordinary people. Still, they will lose tenfold or more when they will try to sell tickets in advance for the future. Nobody will trust them their money a 2nd time around.

IORR has been publishing pictures and stories from all press conferences and shows since IORR went online in 1996 i.e. from 1997, 1998 and so on. Just follow the News pages and the tour announcements, and there are plenty of pictures and reports.

I have tickets to one of the Elton John "farewell tour" shows in Oslo Norway Sept this year. Just now I got an e-mail saying the show is postponed until September 2021. They never asked if it was ok for me to hold on to the ticket, and to give them a loan of my money for 12 more month. They did not even tell me what to do if I wanted a refund.

The Rolling Stones have the world's best PR people and also they are world class musicians working with world class music industry experts, including their Band 2 support members on stage. I am sure they will be relevant in the years to come, may be not live on stage, but they will find a way to release new music, for sure.

I have always been a big fan of Ennio Morricone. He is a true genus, and he has been writing so much great and beautiful music. Rest in peace, Ennio Morricone! The theme song "Gabriel's Oboe" for Roland Joffé's film "The Mission" (1986). The song is composed by Ennio Morricone.

Being optimistic with the corona virus is like getting the habit of having a swim in the canals and Everglades of Florida. You may get lucky, but there is more than a slim chance an alligator will have a bite of you sooner or later. The corona virus and a vaccine is the same. One need to be realistic rather than optimistic. This is the largest and most widespread pandemic in 102 years time. It
