It's being reported that the Rolling Stones are set to announce their last ever world tour. The band is said to be in talks with concert promoter Live Nation about the 50th anniversary jaunt. The dates will apparently begin next year and last into 2012.
"They're likely to perform in stadiums,” a source told The Sun. “It's almost certainly the last full-scale world tour.”
The band, who formed in 1962, have become a prolific live act over the latter stages of their career. Their most recent A Bigger Bang tour, which ran for two years, grossed $558million.
Drummer Charlie Watts will turn 70 during the tour, while Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood are all in their 60s.

Science of Silence Release Vinyl-Only Voyager/Monolith Split LP
With the slow, grueling death of the CD medium upon us, you might raise an eyebrow over the existence of a limited-edition, vinyl-only record label, but it's actually brilliant. Sure, vinyl died years before the CD, but like anything that goes extinct, there are people still interested in collecting it, whether it's music or dinosaur bones. Marc Schapiro and Tim Tatulli have launched Science of Silence to serve vinyl collectors, not the masses. Their debut release was a split clear LP with Voyager and Monolith.

UK RELEASE OF RED VELVET CAR ON EAGLE RECORDS!
Eagle Records
For this album, the first ladies of arena rock added an acoustic slant to a collection of songs inspired by the world around them, arranged for an assortment of strings including guitar, mandolin, dobro, banjo, fiddle, viola, cello and autoharp, all played by Nancy Wilson and the album’s producer, Grammy winner Ben Mink.
Nine of the album’s songs were written for, and appear for the first time on “Red Velvet Car”. The album’s closer, “Sand,” is a newly recorded version of a song originally written and recorded by the Lovemongers, Ann and Nancy’s 1990’s acoustic side project. Tracks on “Red Velvet Car” include “Death Valley,” “Safronia’s Mark,” “Red Velvet Car,” “Queen City,” “Sunflower,” “Wheels,” “There You Go,” “WTF,” “Hey You” and “Sand.”
Ann Wilson describes the album as having, “A fresh sound with all the original Heart magic.” “This album feels so right for the times,” said Nancy Wilson. “We can’t wait to share this one with the world!” Ann Wilson and her younger sister, Nancy Wilson, first showed the world that women can rock when their band Heart stormed the charts in the ’70s with hits like “Crazy on You,” “Magic Man,” “Barracuda,” ‘Straight On,” “Even It Up,” “Kick It Out” and so many more. Not only did the Wilson sisters lead the band, they wrote the songs, and played the instruments too, making them the first women in rock to do so. Heart continued topping the charts through the ‘80s and into the ‘90s with huge hits like “These Dreams,” “Alone,” “What About Love,” “If Looks Could Kill,” “Never,” showcasing the sisters’ enormous talents as both musicians and singers. Along the way, Heart sold more than 30 million records, had 21 top 40 hits, sold out arenas worldwide, and had a profound influence on rock music – “Red Velvet Car” continues that journey, and in considerable style.
