QuoteBrstonesfan it's very sad how this came about on the 81 tour...per contract from rumors we have heard.actually it's not so sad, rather just logical. maybe after watching the "Happy" rendition from Fort Worth'78 Mick himself came to the conclusion that he was hogging the mic way too much to call it "Keith Richards on lead vocals!"

QuotewinterIt's really a bit of a tragedy that the distortion in the amps was missing from the P.A. systems sound from 1989-2003. We'll never get that back from soundboards or audience tapes to hear what prominent distorted guitar amps would have sounded like with the exact notes they played.Still an enjoyable tour.QuoteJuanTCBBut as far as I'm concerned, it was all part of the pro

QuoteManofwealthandtaste One thing I noticed and I thought a little unusual....there were no tour posters around any of the cities I was in announcing that the Stones were in town. OK, they were sold out, but usually you see some promotion of the Stones performing in town by way of a billboard or a simple poster pasted onto a lamp post/phone box/etc. probably they were all snatched up already? o

Quotelaertisflash kahoosier wrote: "... If the said this is good bye to our American fans, they would sell out 7 MSG shows easily with people from all over". I think the Stones would prefer to sell out "Giants Stadium" once or twice than do 5 or 7 MSG shows. I mean, at their age, they need to save powers. Which means lesser shows - bigger venues. Just a thought. two really

Quotestonehearted You could--but you'd be wrong. I only caught my first show last year and would like to see another two or three.

Quotestonehearted Suddenly everyone is optimistic about the Stones continuing on with touring indefinitely, when just a few days ago it seems everyone was resolved to accepting that this is the last tour and that it will all be wrapping up in the summer of 2015.

after the waldbühne concert, i found a german satire magazine in the parking lot which was asking if 2014 was "the last summer of Rock'n'Roll". having just left a Rolling Stones Wrecking Site, i somehow had to smirk at that title and took it with me as a souvenir. then it was mainly about the Malcolm Young news, but they might have actually struck a chord. the fading

Quotedrbryant The tour was a complete financial success. That is clear without box office data. Unless this tour was handled differently, the Stones are paid a guaranty to deliver shows by the promoters. The Stones profit is guaranteed as long as they control expenses. The promoter books venues and prices tickets to ensure a profit. Since all shows sold out very quickly, it is highly likely
