October slated for Rolling Stones return


The Rolling Stones will return for a tour of Australia and New Zealand in October, Frontier Touring has announced.

The 14 On Fire Tour of Australasia was postponed following the death of frontman Mick Jagger’s partner of 13 years, fashion designer L’Wren Scott.

Frontier Touring issued a statement on social media on Thursday reassuring fans and ticket holders that efforts are being made to reschedule the tour for October and November.

“If the new dates are not suitable, rest assured you will be able to secure a refund,” Frontier Touring said.

“While we encourage fans to hold on to their tickets, the option to secure a refund is now available to you via the official ticketing agency you purchased from.”

Fans can secure a refund for not just the value of the tickets, but also fees and charges incurred in purchasing the ticket.

Some of the rockers remain in the WA capital after flying in on Sunday night and are rumoured to be departing mid-afternoon on Thursday.

Rolling Stones’ drummer Charlie Watts wowed a jazz club crowd in Perth on Wednesday night, playing with the band’s saxophonist Tim Ries in a brief impromptu performance.

Watts was also seen dining at an Indian restaurant with guitarist Keith Richards in Highgate on Wednesday night.

But Ellington Jazz Club manager Jess Herbert said she believed frontman Mick Jagger had returned to the US a day or two after learning his partner had died in New York.
