Two weeks after announcing they’ll play the newly revamped Adelaide Oval next March, the Rolling Stones have released dates for a full-scale Australian tour.
The British rock veterans will kick off the Aussie leg of their 14 on Fire shows in Perth before making their way around the capitals. A show at Hanging Rock is sure to be the pick of them, although I’m sure there’ll be plenty of demand for all these gigs.
“We’re all looking forward to coming back Down Under,” Keith Richards said. “I can’t wait to get back on the stage with the boys.” Bandmade Mick Jagger adds that he “can’t wait to reconnect” with local fans.
There are whispers this will be The Stones’ last shows in this country, so if you’re a fan I wouldn’t second-guessing picking up tickets when they go on sale on December 16. Note that the Adelaide show has already sold out through an earlier sale.
