        60th anniversary/farewell concert??

        ... and since it's in London, Bill Wyman & Mick Taylor will be expected to show up.... assuming they're still alive by then... Wyman's gotta be in his mid 80s by now

          I didn't go back too far into the thread. Those guys must skew way older than here and their posts are sometimes hard to read and decipher.

          60th anniversary gig close to where everything began makes sense.

            Wyman is 85. Wonder how old his current companion is...younger than Sally Wood?

                  Wyman has repeatedly stated he has no plans to ever play with the Stones again. As for Taylor, maybe seeing he's broke, destitute and desperate. So yeah, throw a few bucks his way.


                  Other than that, Mick and his dead brain cell buddy Keith should have hung it up 15 years ago. No original material since 2005, the death of Charlie and their inability to give a shit about their fans other than fleecing them. At least Schleppy knew to hang it when their drummer died. These dumb motherfuckers should take the high road and do the same. Everything must end. Everything.

                    It will end when the fans vote with their pocketbooks. The Rolling Stones replaces it's dead with other players. Let's say everyone is replaced with younger people and the tickets still sell then it goes on and on. Can your replace Mick or Keith? The audience decides.
                    No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!

                      Surely it has to end with Mick?

                      If they enjoy it and the fans do as well then why not? My only beef with the thing is the ticket pricing. There seems to be a credible argument that the greed of The Stones has had the effect of raising prices across the board by pushing up the bar all the time, normalizing what should be obscene.

                        Because it's not the Stones. It's greed. And it's sad Mick and his brain dead buddy have allowed for this to continue as long as it has.

                          European tour supposedly will be announced on March 7 or 9.
