| May 7, 2002 - Stones Most
Ambitious Tour Ever The Rolling Stones announced today, the kick off of their Rolling Stones World Tour 2002/2003 at Boston's CMGI Field on September 5, 2002. The band announced 32 dates in the U.S and Canada (more to come) and will then tour Europe, Australia, Mexico and the Far East in 2003, hopefully including their first concerts in China. Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood made a spectacular entrance into Van Cortlandt Park, in an eye-popping blimp decorated with the legendary Rolling Stones tongue. They descended upon an amazed crowd of U.S. and international press and fans to talk about the World Tour at a press conference beamed live via satellite. The unique concept for the tour will showcase the band's diversity as musicians and performers with three dramatically different shows by playing stadiums, arenas and theatres/clubs all in one tour. Each show will combine the spectacular production and charismatic performances that fans have come to expect. The Rolling Stones, working closely with the design team responsible for the sensational sets and dramatic effects on previous tours (Steel Wheels, Voodoo, Lounge, Bridges to Babylon, No Security) will create three totally different productions (sets, lighting, special effects) offering fans completely unique experiences at each venue. Fans can choose to see the band up close in an intimate club/theatre setting or the grand scale excitement of a stadium experience. In some markets, fans will have the opportunity to see three totally different shows on different nights providing an incredible musical event .All shows will feature a significant set of classic Rolling Stones hits as well as new songs. "Only The Rolling Stones would dare to come up with a concept so ambitious - three dramatically different shows in three different venues, said Michael Cohl, tour promoter. It will be a spectacular musical event." The Rolling Stones hold the all-time record for the three most attended
tours of all time, "Bridges to Babylon," "Steel
Wheels" and "Voodoo Lounge. "Some of the opening acts that
will share the stage with the Rolling Stones are: No Doubt, Sheryl Crow,
Buddy Guy, Jonny Lang with more acts to be announced later this week. |
