Rolling Stones: 50th Anniversary tour meeting next month

There’s more Rolling Stones talk about the Rolling Stones talking.

Rolling Stone magazine reports Mick Jagger and Keith Richards will meet in December to decide how the Stones will celebrate next year's 50th anniversary, according to a top tour-industry source.

"I don't see why in the world the Stones can't put together some kind of show next year," says Richards. "I'd almost count on it. It doesn't have to be the whole spectacle bulls**t again, but we've got to find our own way through this."

"It is quite amazing when you think about it,"
Jagger adds. "Anything's possible."

Following a band meeting in September at the Stones' London office, Richards, guitarist Ronnie Wood and drummer Charlie Watts were set to convene in November to jam in London.

Richards says he's up for another massive world stadium and arena run like 2005's Bigger Bang tour, but isn't sure Jagger wants to make such a large commitment.

"I don't know about that," Richards says. "I don't think Mick would. We'd like to be ready to be able to do it if the idea starts to happen. I'd even invite Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor back in. Why not? It's 50 years. Everyone deserves a party."

The Stones just released two “Some Girls” projects: a reissue of the 1978 album, complete with a bonus disc containing 12 tracks from the original sessions; and, "Some Girls Live in Texas 1978" on DVD and Blu-ray.
