Applause, Applause: Toldja So PART II
A coupla weeks ago I predicted the Stones would be touring in 2010 and my crystal ball must be really working because talking to BBC Radio yetserday Ronnie Wood had this to say, “It’s all very good. I saw Mick and Charlie last week. Everything is great,” before saying he was confident that the band could tour in 2010, with an all but certain “Let’s hope so, yeah!”
Do the math: the Stones will make a coupla 100 million on the tour. Jagger is 67 years old in 2010. They tour. Sit two years. Tour again in 2013. Jagger is 70 years old. Same sked? 2016. Jagger is 73. That would be very tough to get away with even for the Stones. 76 years old would be essentially impossible.If they had left it even to 2011 it would’ve been very late and their is simply too much money at stake to make a mistake.
