You think the Stones will tour when they are in their 70's?

[Oracle]

They are almost in their mid sixties...I think they might...what a fucking show it would be...sponored by Denture-grip, Viagra and Depends..fucking make a fortune!

[BurtWorm]

1. They'll change their name

to the Moss Gathering Stones.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

2. I hope not! I wish they would quit 20 years ago!

Go sell Dentu Grip or something!

[AntiCoup2K4]

3. Why shouldn't they?

They could be literally on life support or in wheelchairs on stage and still sound better than 90% of the shit on corporate radio.

[BackDoorMan]

6. 99.9% of the shit!

Sorry.

[roughsatori]

7. the stones were pioneers of corporate rock

They were one of the first to have tours sponsored by large corporations to make a few more bucks. As long as they can make a buck, they'll tour--there seems to be no bounds once greed gets a hol.

[BurtWorm]

8. I was thinking the same thing

But they'd still probably be better than 99.9% of the shit they paved the way for.

12. If you're interested they are appearing live in Toronto July 30 to benefit

the city since Toronto lost so much tourism during the SARS scare...They have been coming to Toronto the last few years before their tours to prepare and practice for the tours and are old fixtures in Toronto....by the way....NO WORRY OF SARS IN TORONTO!!

4. Remember Guy Lombardo?

He and his band were really hip in their day...

[roughsatori]

9. I know "hip" gets old fast

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

5. I thought they already WERE...

[ParanoidPat]

10. The Rolling Stones GOLDEN WALKER TOUR....

Sponsored by Batesville Casket Company and Depends! :evilgrin:

[comradebillyboy]

11. i have been a stones fan since 1963

its time to retire guys. the greatest and most durable rock and roll band of all time, but all things must end.

[Oracle]

13. Yeah, but...playing "Satisfaction"

into their 70's...Mick dancing on stage like Rumplestiltskin....Keith hitting cords like he can actually hear them...Woody...is not there...missed the scuttle... and Charlie's thinks he's havin tea with Wyman...though Wyman's been gone for years...it will be such a show.

[TankLV]

14. God, I hope not. I think they should retire from the stage, NOW.

Sad to see a bunch of old geezers trying to act like they're still in their 20's.

It's like watching old people (your parents) porno.

It's JUST NOT RIGHT!

[Pert_UK]

15. They'll still be touring when I'm 70....and I'm 28 at the moment!

:evilgrin:

I was going to see them when they played Shanghai, but they cancelled due to SARS.

Mr P.

[Spirochete]

16. If the economy's like this...

nobody will be able to afford the $1100 they're going to want to charge for a ticket, so they probably won't tour.
