Rolling Stones Retirement Tour In The Works?
Posted on September 8, 2010 at 02:40 PM
The Rolling Stones have been at the rock n' roll game for over 48 years, and despite the lyrical declarations of early hit "Not Fade Away," nothing can last forever. With the Stones all individually at retirement age, one might think that the Stones are starting to have a farewell in mind. And one would be right.
According to Rock Radio (via CoS), drummer Charlie Watts revealed to Le Parisien that the Stones plan to tour in 2011 and 2012, a stretch that would be the band's retirement tour. By 2012, the Stones will have been together for an astonishing fifty years. Says Watts:
We’ve reached an age where you can’t look too far into the future.
'We’re discussing it at the moment. If we do something, it will be next year or the year after.'
Watts goes on to say that the band will announce more specific plans once Mick Jagger and Keith Richards 'get bored' with their current side projects.
Even with a high-profile farewell tour, don't expect the Stones to go quietly. The ethos of the blues greats that the band so admired was to play til you died. Don't be surprised if the Stones continue to play one-offs beyond this grand retirement. They're musicians -- it's what they do.
-- Conrad Doucette

goodness, is everyone else who watches this nine?
fun, interesting or engaging are words that could not describe this, if I'm being frank. I've got enough embarrassingly awkward small talk in my own life thank you. I love ya Dan, and I don't mean to beat you while you're down, but you asked.
