Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood has confirmed rumors that the band will play nightclub shows in Paris
in late October 2012 and/or early November 2012 at venues to be
announced. The only date and location that have been confirmed by
several media outlets is October 29, 2012, at the Carmignac Gestion.
Several people on Rolling Stones
fan sites have said that the Carmignac Gestion show on October 29 is by
invitation only. The other rumored nightclub shows are expected to have
tickets sold to the public
Wood told NME that at these nightclub gigs, the Rolling Stones will be billed under an alias, such as the Cockroaches: "We’re all making a concentrated effort of being there on time every day, we start at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, we go through to dinner time, we have one break and so far everything has been [like] an operation, nose to the grindstone. We wanna give 200 percent.
"There’s going to be little club gigs that we’re gonna surprise ourselves to do as well, we’ll bung a few in next week or the week after, so look out for any Cockroaches gigs or whatever! I don’t know who we’ll be billed as but we’ll turn up somewhere and put a few to the test. Tiny, 200, 300 people kind of places."
As previously reported, the Rolling Stones have announced performances at the O2 Arena in London on November 25 and November 29, 2012, and at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, on December 13 and December 15, 2012. The last time the Rolling Stones performed in concert was on August 20, 2007, which was the last date of the tour for "A Bigger Bang."
Wood and Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards have hinted in interviews that the Rolling Stones will be doing a full-scale tour in 2013.
