Default Rolling Stones to tour in USA and Canada this year

Rolling Stones Announce Summer Tour, and 'Sticky Fingers' Reissue





The Rolling Stones will return to North American stadiums this summer for the 15-city Zip Code tour. The tour will kick off May 24th at San Diego’s Petco Park, criss-crossing the country before ending July 15th at Quebec’s Le Festival D’Été de Québec. The tour name plays off the jeans-focused cover of the group’s classic 1971 album, Sticky Fingers, which it will be reissuing in a deluxe format on May 26th.

The band will play hits-filled sets, as well as selections of what it’s calling “special gems” from its catalog. The last time the group toured U.S. stadiums was in 2007.

The group intends to elevate its stadium performances with a stage that will extend deep into the audience, as well as video screens and special effects. Tickets for all U.S. shows go on sale April 13th, while the Quebec date goes on sale April 11th.

Hmmmmmm....wonder how much those gems of tickets will be. I saw the Stones during the Bridges to Babylon tour back around '98 I think it was. It was a fun show but not sure how much more they have in the tank for live performances. Would've loved to be old enough to have seen them back in the early 70's.

I am really surprised that they are still able to perform after all these years (Mick Jagger was born in 1943). I just hope I am able to get around at Mick Jagger's age like he does.

In 1982 I had a young girl that worked for me who went to see the Stones. The next day she referred to the band as a bunch of old men. (she loved the show) What would she call them today?

This, I am sure is the last chance to see them.

Time waits for no one.

I remember saying this in the 80s as well. Who thought they would be touring 30 years later?

Who thought Keith Richards would even make it through the 90s?

Check front row ticket prices this is from memory but in Quebec $770. in Buffalo $1800 in New York just under $8,000 if I read it right.

For 8,000 Hendrick better be playing lead
