Are the Rolling Stones done touring forever?
According to the Post Chronicle, The Rolling Stones will stop touring after Sunday's concert at London's O2 arena.
Today in 2005, the Stones kicked off their "A Bigger Bang Tour" and it is believed it will be thier last. Sir Mick Jagger, 64, and Keith Richards, 63, will be too old to do another.
A source says: "We've been told this will be the last tour. Embarking on a Stones world tour takes years to plan. Mick and Keith would be in their late 60s by the time they would be ready to rock once more."
The source was not identified and neither Mick nor Keith said that. NME asked Keith when he thought he would stop playing music and touring and he said "when I croak." I think you will find that the big two year long world tours are going to stop. But this band loves touring and loves playing their music. I will be shocked if they stop touring. The only band that actually said they were going to do a farewell tour and stuck with it was KISS.
