Tour Coming...
Even with the link sitting right there in front of me, I haven't heard it yet... As it's been with much music for me lately. :-( It's impossible for me to listen at work (despite it being the location I'm at a computer most). When I get home, I'm running around doing all sorts of mommy, accountant, homeowner, chauffer and gopher duties that I never get to sit down and preview anything that's been coming out.
Any way... The reason I'm replying is that I saw mention on the other board that a tour is indeed being booked, but not all dates are confirmed yet:Rolling Stones Concert Tix Will Go on Sale This Weekend
WebsiteExclusive: The Rolling Stones will indeed play 50th anniversary concerts. And I am told they will go on sale this weekend–maybe as soon as Friday. Ticketmaster will handle the sales. All hell is going to break loose, too.
What I’m told: confirmed dates are November 26 and 27 at the O2 Arena in London. December 15th and 16th are set for the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. The dates for the Barclays Center in Brooklyn are coming, but not agreed to yet.
This column was first to break the Prudential Center news two weeks ago. We were also first to tell you about Barclays and O2.
So what’s been the delay? Money, money, money. The Stones want it. Richard Branson is putting up $25 million to make all this happen with concert promoter Paul Dainty.
Once all the London-New York shows are sold, look for more dates. You know that Los Angeles and a few other big cities are guaranteed in 2013. It’s only rock and roll, but we like it!
Meantime, HBO has a premiere scheduled for the Stones documentary “Crossfiret Hurricane” by Brett Morgan set for November 13th in New York.
Keep refreshing, stay tuned…
Stones new single, Doom and Gloom
Read Also... <-- Just read this article about the single and, being the Battlestar Gallactica geek that I am, I love they they use the word "fracking" in the single! LOL!
One of the Prudential Center dates is actually doable for me, so hopefully I can make that happen, as I've never managed to see them before.

P.S. And, yes, I do realize that for someone who's 1st language is English, my grammar is pretty attrocious in spots... I'm too busy/tired to bother fixing them right now. _________________________________________________________
Whatever, it's all just meaningless drivel anyway...
