One of my Team is a Huge Stones fan and does travel all over the World to see them { so he will see at least one concert per city and will even attend the rehearsal gigs in Canada } and he has even been able to wangle on the Stones guest list though his connections so if there is any truth in the claim that the Stones will be at Glastonbury 2013 then he is bound to hear about it.

first time I saw the Stones was in 1963/64 but never had the money to see them abroad but it would be a killer to see them at Glasto.

Thank God I don't need to worry about Glastonbury tickets as it will be murder.

I'm sure this is complete bull, but wow. If this happens it would be a dream come true for me, (in my opinion) the greatest band of all time ending a 50 (although really its 51) year reign at the best place on earth is to amazing to comprehend.

Saying that I'd probs go see them if nothing else amazing was on.

I could see them playing glastonbury as part of a farewell tour but i'm not sure they'd do it as the final gig of that tour. I'd expect them to finish off with their own gig...

Would love it though.

I'm very confident of getting my ticket *touches wood*, both years i have had my ticket signed and sealed by 9:05, so im not worried if my Internet stays good!

But with The Stones, their swanson will be a big show somewhere like Hyde Park, Knebworth where they can charge through the roof for tickets billing it as their 'farewell', sentiment? No not for them why play for £100k and be seen around the world when they can get 50,000 people paying £60+ to see em (That's £3m) if not more!

I heard an interview with Mick Taylor on Irish radio last week (hes still great mates with Bill) and he said thats not going to happen due to Bill being almost crippled with arthritis. He may play the odd gig I, which you would expect may include Glasto, but he wont be touring with them. Wyman older than the others. Hes 76 next year,

the way that story has been written it's only a few gigs anyway and not a tour (at least, not a tour in the normal Stones sense). So that makes it less of a load onto all the oldies.

I'd guess that Bill's playing isn't too bad despite the artritis, from him having supposedly jammed with them at the end of last year. I reckon he'll be involved at some level for all those dates, even if it's him being wheeled out to play on just a few songs.

    • Reading all the feedback with interest.  If there are now 75,000 tickets officially sold, plus who knows how many more people blagging in - then on the Friday evening and Saturday in particular, it's not ridiculous to suggest there's 50,000 people at Mordor, which is a stadium gig - except with much worse sight lines, an inferior PA, and far less bars and toilets. The Thursday evening in 2022 was of course infamous but on the Friday night for Beck I was trapped about 150m from the stage, surrounded by chatters, and with no prospect of getting nearer the stage.  With hindsight that was when I realised the fest had one way or another fundamentally changed.  Also noting on Reddit that some folk didn't enjoy the Cure or Gorillaz because the sets were "too long".  In future bands may be better received if they actually just play their top 10 Spotify songs then get back off the stage.
    • Has Glastonbury already got council permission for that 5 year run?
    • This keeps being mentionned but it only happened because Dua's Europe Tour was rescheduled due to Covid. Dua's arena show was initially planned for October 2021 but got rescheduled to May 2022 a month after the PS2022 lineup was announced.   I hope Massive Attack and Doja get to come back. I guess it'll depend whether they have a summer tour planned next year. 
    • Solo album on the way for the singer of a certain band.  Il leave the name of the act out and see if anyone listening can guess....  its er rather obvious lol
