Quindi i Rolling Stones non lasciano, ma raddoppiano. Finite le celebrazioni per il 50° Anniversario ora siamo passati ad una nuova fase: ieri, oltre all’annuncio della ristampa di Sticky Fingers, di cui tra un attimo, gli Stones hanno anche annunciato un nuovo, ennesimo, tour del Nord America, Canada e Stati Uniti, dove è più che probabile che eseguiranno nella sua interezza quello che per molti è il loro album più bello (ma se la batte con Exile On Main Street e Beggars Banquet)!
Il Tour si chiamerà Zip Code e toccherà 15 città: per chi progetta una trasferta queste sono le date:

Ovviamente la più bramata e la più completa (anche la più cara, al momento si parla di una cifra tra i 105 e 110 euro, ma potrebbe essere anche di più, negli Stati Uniti è annunciata a 300 dollari !?!), sarà la Super Deluxe di cui, questo sotto, sarà il contenuto; fantastico, così a occhio, ricco di inediti, anche se nei bootleg era già uscito più o meno tutto, ovviamente cambierà la qualità sonora: ma perché il DVD solo con due pezzi? Nelle altre versioni il contenuto dei brani è lo stesso, ma diminuisce il numero a seconda dei supporti sonori:
