Are The Rolling Stones Teasing A Potential Tour Stop In Pittsburgh?

[yortsed snacilbuper]

The band has been dropping hints all over the city, with billboards like this one over Route 28.


Newschooper 2 flew over the sign, which reads “Get what you need.”

1. I saw them in Phoenix last August

They were Amazing! I'm excited to hear about another tour this year!

2. The Stones are touring here again this May-July, Heinz Stadium

Pittsburgh is getting a show, as are a dozen other cities. Formal announcement is the 6th.

But doesn't this belong under Music?


Go to iorr.com, the 2020 Tour thread, for more.

Okay, fellow Stones fans. Tuesday update. This schedule or something pretty close to it is likely to be announced the day after tomorrow.

Unconfirmed, as of today, 14 cities, 14 shows. (Down, so far, from 17 shows in 15 cities last year.) Announcement probably on Thursday.


5/3 Sun. San Diego

5/9 Sat. Minneapolis

5/16 Sat. Nashville

5/24 Sun. Austin (at speedway)

5/31 Sun. Dallas

7/18 Sat. Charlotte

7/25 Sat. Tampa

8/1 Sat. Atlanta


No shows so far for DC (where I saw them lasr year), NYC, LA, Chicago, Philly, Boston. Quite a few smaller cities instead.

Compared to 2019 they've gone from 4 days between shows to a full week. No weekday shows this time (2019 in DC was Independence Day eve, July 3, a Wednesday), now they're all on weekends. Maybe with all that recovery time they'll increase the song count from 19 or 20... one can hope.

And they've reportedly moved the (opening act) start from 7 pm to 3 pm. So, near 5 pm instead of near 9 pm for the Stones. (Wonder if Charlie's moved his bedtime earlier?)
