[slum_goddess]

oh my i actually feel some modicum of excitement about this ('neo con') (i hope they don't fuck it up)

Some fans are already questioning if the politically correct Stones

they're P/C now? since when?

'Back Of My Hand' is said to be a blues song in the vain of 'You Got To Move'.

this is a very very very very very good thing. and Don Was (produces alabama 3) is doing them as well. :)

Rolling Stones To Release A New Album........

Legendary rockers The Rolling Stones are releasing their first studio album since 1997 later this year - and its title is believed to be critical of US President George Bush. Neo-Con is due for an early September release and is the band's first new material since Bridges To Babylon eight years ago. The album was recorded in France in late 2004 and early 2005. 'Oh No, Not You Again' is thought likely to be the lead single from the record. The Stones - Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood - recently announced a world tour, which kicks off in Boston, Massachusetts on 21 August.

Veteran rockers The Rolling Stones will release their first studio album in nearly a decade on September 6, several weeks after kicking off a new world tour.

The title of the album, A Bigger Bang, reflects the British group's new-found fascination with scientific theories governing the origin of the universe, the band said in a statement posted on their official website.

The announcement coincided with frontman Mick Jagger's 62nd birthday.

The Stones' last studio outing was the 1997 platinum-selling Bridges to Babylon.

Produced by Don Was and The Glimmer Twins, the new sixteen-track album is the band's longest since the 1972 classic Exile on Main Street and promises a collection of "hard-hitting, high-powered rock and blues songs," penned by Jagger and his writing partner, guitarist Keith Richards.

Key cuts include Streets of Love which will be the first single taken from the album.

The Stones previewed one of the songs from the album, Oh No, Not You Again, in a live set on the balcony of New York's Juilliard School in May, when they announced the world tour dates.

tThe 2005-2006 tour will kick off on August 21 in Boston, Massachusetts, moving on to Canada and major US cities before heading to Latin America, Japan and other Asian venues, and Europe.

The group's tour manager, Michael Cohl, hopes the band might also be able to fit in a concert in China. The band has never played there, despite applying regularly for permission since the 1970s.

Although all now in their 60s, the Stones - Jagger, Richards, Ron Woods and Charlie Watts - have proved to be a resilient live concert attraction.

The band's previous world tour, dubbed Forty Licks, brought in $US300 million ($394.06 million) and drew more than three million fans between September 2002 and October 2003.

They'll be fine with all the modernized juvination techniques available.

The only rolling stones I care about would be in my gall bladder.
