Thanksgiving with The Rolling Stones

Possibility is growing that The Rolling Stones will be coming in November.

The question in November could be how quickly it can be shifted in and out of rock'n'roll mode. Negotiations have begun for a Rolling Stones concert at Aloha Stadium the week of Thanksgiving.

"There's a good possibility" the Stones will play here after concluding their mainland tour in Los Angeles on Nov. 18, a source close to the situation said.

This appears in the Sports section of today's S-B.

Baseball Not Long For Aloha Stadium

We've been discussing this here since early this morning....

They must be planning another world tour through Asia, then. I can't imagine they would have concerts in Hawai'i and not be on their way to someplace else, not with all their sets and entourage. Wonder what the tickets will cost?

My eardrums can't take that kind of music anymore...the last time I saw them live, I think the cheapest tickets were $75 (and that was almost 15 years ago). Can't imagine what the cheapest seats would cost now!

Gotta take my daughter to the Stones....that's even bigger than U2

I saw them twice in 98...once at Waikoloa and then in Honolulu....used counterfeit back stage passes for the Waikoloa gig....totally looked like a Pepsi Dude....had the prime rib, the free drinks, and got into the concert no problem. Everything was grand until I ordered a Rum & "COKE" at the bar.....oooooppppppssssss

Re: Rolling Stones in April, too???

They're supposed to be here in Oct. too. Hold on to your paples, these are the prices they're asking for Seattle tickets at Qwest Field (also open air) through a consolidator.

$32,000 for a couple hours of music with 23 of your closest friends? (oh wait...parking is included ) . I'm sure food will cost extra.

Re: Rolling Stones in April, too???

I will say one thing - Hawaii has got the tailgate party down to a fine science

After my 3rd trip to the Pro Bowl, I stopped going into the stadium. The party in the parking lot is unlike anything I have ever seen at ANY football game on the mainland. (Raiders, 49ers, Chargers, Seahawks)

In Hawaii, the game sells out, but the seats stay empty. Too Funny.

aint it da troot.
Often at warriors games we miss da kickoff. we say ainokea. fill up my stein one mo 'ghin, brah. dat hefeweisen is shaaaakaaah.

At the stones bridges to babylon tour, we completely missed Johnny lang's set. heard him outside. was good enuff. having tooo much fun. a bunch of us met in one area and all lined up our cars and truck and set up da tents and beach chairs. after the stones, we hightailed it out and resumed our tailgate. most all of us soaked in da kine. and we got peechaz to prove it.

Having seen the Stones many times, Johnny Lang was the reason I did decide to go to that concert. The kid rocked! Only disappointment was that his set wasn't shown on the giant screens, like the Stones were.

Re: Rolling Stones in April, too???

Rolling Stones headed to Hawaii?

A HONOLULU radio station is sticking to its story that the Rolling Stones are indeed rocking the town on Thanksgiving Day. KPOI-FM is reporting that the Stones will end their lengthy "A Bigger Bang" tour in Honolulu on Nov. 23. The station had no information on ticket prices or where the band would play... "We're closely connected with the rock 'n' roll community," said program director Ed Kanoi, "and a source close to the Stones (a tour booking agent on the mainland) called our deejay Dave Lawrence to confirm that the band was heading to Hawaii to wrap up the tour."
