Kicking off the tour this summer would love to see them before Keith Richards |shocking| drops dead.

Not coming to Buffalo, so fuck'em!

Torn Rose 2005-05-11 10:02 AM

Yeah we saw this on the news last night, a bunch of 60+ year old men in skintight pants.... please make them stop doing that.

Jim 2005-05-11 10:04 AM

I saw them in Buffalo way, way back.
I was just looking at where they are playing strangly enough. ehh, we won't go :)

Torn Rose 2005-05-11 10:10 AM

Wow, only 4 shows out west... might as well call it a Eastern US Tour

sue-fl 2005-05-11 11:58 AM

I think it's very cool that 60 year old men in tight pants are still at it!! I saw them way back in the 70's never have forgot it. They may be getting old but they rock and I say way to go!! I'm "older" but still love my rock-n-roll |peace|

A lot can change in a decade or 2 and I want to remember them as the skinny, stoned out rockers of the past so I will make no attempt to see them. Think about the young Elvis vs. the Fat Elvis.

Hats off to them though and I hope they have a great time touring.

They are going to be in Philadelphia...probably some far out stadium I can never get to though. LOL

Ramster 2005-05-11 12:40 PM

I don't see the tour schedule but I heard on the radio station that they are coming to Ottawa. I never saw them and probably won't this time neither.

gumdrop 2005-05-11 12:42 PM

They are comming to Calgary! |pink |headbang|

Electra 2005-05-11 12:55 PM

Why are they touring though? Are they running out of money AGAIN? :)

gumdrop 2005-05-11 01:03 PM

Nope. They just love Canada and Touring this wonderful country. |headbang| |king|

That is really good news here

pornrex 2005-05-11 01:55 PM

Saw them at SARS-Aid or whatever it was called when they came to Toronto. It really is time for them to hang it up.

eman 2005-05-11 02:20 PM

You've got to remember that back in the 60's, at least in the UK, it was "The Beatles" or "The Stones". They ARE the music of a divided generation. And subsequent generations have latched on.
The fact that they're still up for any kind of tour is amazing enough (don't ask me to do a tour).
Look at second-rate bands like Aerosmith and Kiss - they burned out years ago. Cissies.
The Stones still deliver.
Rock on.

sue-fl 2005-05-11 05:19 PM

I just heard on the radio the Stones are coming to Tampa...... |bananna|

docholly 2005-05-11 05:44 PM

Wonder if they'll have automatic wheelchairs or if they will just rolling themselves on stage.

actually they put on a pretty good show.. or they did .. i saw a few of them.. steel wheels, voodoo lounge.. let it bleed. The one in i think 1977 or 78 sometime around there with Bob Marley as the opening act was da bomb.. or at least what i remember of it..

I sort of feel like I should see them but I saw the huge imax show they did about ten years ago and nearly feel like I have anyway.

cockNballs 2005-05-12 08:46 AM

when they sing start me up I don't know if they are talking about

Getting more fiber in their diets
Viagra
or the Dfibulator they will nedd when they go on tour just in case :D

Linkster 2005-05-12 07:30 PM

I just heard we've got the Allman Bros and Lynyrd Skynyrd coming to Jackson (cant beleive the shit we get here) - ought to be interesting to see all the replacement band members trying to play the old songs

Oh yeah - forgot to mention - I was in the Beatles camp in the 60s until Hendrix came along - then when he did Day Tripper with them I was sold forever

Here's What It Sounds Like

I saw them open up in DC about 10 years ago for their steal wheels tour. I was expecting a bunch of old guys not doing much. TO be honest. Best rock show i saw in my life. They came out with "start me up" Mic stated after, "Not bad for a bunch of old gezzers" They did not take a break. My friend promissed to light up another bone during the break which never came and neather did the bone. 3 hours stright rocking. They converted me. I truly think they are the greatest rock band of all time. THink of all the hits, and how long they have been playing? I'm sure there are people here who weren't even born when these guys were tossing tv sets out hotel windows. Seriously a good time no matter what age these gandpa's are.

Linkster 2005-05-13 11:44 PM

LOL - I was definitely born when they were young'uns - and Ive always liked the energy they and a few other bands like them had - the Beach Boys come to mind as they would always give free concerts in Wash DC at the Washington Monument on the 4th of July (thats where I grew up and we had a rockin time in the 60s with the Moritoriums and Peace marches) and it was a smoked out weekend every year - that and Ted Nugent and the Amboy Dukes were a fantastic rocking show everytime.
