“All the big promoters were offering the Rolling Stones ideas and dates for next summer, but when they started talking about the tour, Keith said he didn't feel like committing and that he wasn't keen on doing a big stadium tour for over four months.”
This would be the reason why the European tour of the band that has been talked about for some time will not take place. The words are from an American critic quoted by Sun. A spokesperson for the Stones confirmed to NME that this is actually the case. «The band wanted to go on tour earlier this year, but couldn't organize it. It's tough for the fans, but the Stones will return to the stage when they're ready.”
The tour, to be clear, was not canceled as it was never announced. But actually there were many rumors, there was even talk of negotiations for a big concert in Rome. On the other hand, it is confirmed by multiple sources, including Ronnie Wood, that the band is working on the new album, the first since Hackney Diamonds of 2023.
