Rapino also let slip that while officially, there was no confirmed Stones tour yet, tickets for Madonna’s widely anticipated 2012 tour will likely go onsale shortly after the Super Bowl this weekend.
“At this point we’re optimistic about 2012,” Rapino told the Times. “Madonna’s going on the road, and those tickets will go on sale right after the Super Bowl. If you have one or two of those giant tours, it keeps the industry level where you want it.”
The Stones are also widely expected to tour in 2012 as it will be their 50th anniversary, however the tour may be tied up in litigation between Live Nation and former company chairman Michael Cohl over who has rights to the tour. - via CelebrityAccess
