Whenever the Stones kick off another hugely successful and lucrative tour, I can't help but wonder what Wyman makes of it all.
Incredible to think that the Stones have exsited in their post-Wyman form for 80% of the time they existed with Wyman in the band.
Another seven years, and the Stones will have existed for longer without Wyman than with him.
Interesting point. The impression I get is that he's happier doing his own thing. I also don't think in interviews he's ever said that he was sad that they carried on without him (a la Roger Waters with Floyd or Peter Hook with New Order) so there doesn't appear to be any issues there. Plus, I imagine that the Stones being a big deal has a positive effect on his current career -ie if the Stones are still in the public consciousness then more people may go and see the Rhythm Kings.
It seems the only issue in recent years (given that he played on the 'new' tracks on the "Exile" Reissue (and "Some Girls"?) was his annoyance over his role in the 50th anniversary shows at The O2. I wonder if they had made him the offer to come back full time whether he would have taken it. Personally, for me it would have been a dream come true if he had come back on bass and Taylor had been given a bigger role.
I have it on reliable authority, from someone who knows some in the Wyman camp,that the major reason he was pissed off with the 02 shows is that he was initially promised that he would play a good chunk of the showtime by Mick, on this reliance he sorted everything for a trip to the USA (Visas etc) and was all packed ready to go, only for Mick to turn round a few days before the O2 show and say he would only be playing 2. Keith was just as surprised as Bill was by this last minute alteration. Bill cancelled plans as he felt he had been led up the garden path.

The shows in BA sold out immediately. They could have sold out five or more shows. La Plata is a short trip from BA, many cars and buses on the roads today and later this week.

Yes I noticed that from the photo of the set list at the Chile gig as well.
There was a photo of her with the Stones in Los Angeles during the rehearsals but maybe she didn't go to South America.

Does anyone have any insight on ticket sales in Bogota? It seems there are only a couple of sections on sale now. My Spanish is not great.
Do you think getting a good seat closer to the show is possible?
Thanks!!!!

A little backstage film clip prior to every show. Charlotte shows her «tattoo» of the day, and films a bit backstage, showing some instruments etc. It usually lasts for a couple of minutes.
If you follow the Stones on twitter, and have the periscope app, you will get a message about the Tattoo You Parlour and can stream it directly right prior to every show. In all the show threads you'll find links.

You would have to reach hard ('Olé, Olé Olé Olé, reach hards, reach hards') to find a more recharged ('Olé, Olé Olé Olé, recharged, recharged') audience on the planet.
