NEW YORK (AP) — The Rolling Stones are postponing their latest tour so Mick Jagger can receive medical treatment.

The band announced Saturday that Jagger was told by doctors “he cannot go on tour at this time.” The band added that Jagger “is expected to make a complete recovery so that he can get back on stage as soon as possible.”

No more details about 75-year-old Jagger’s condition were provided.

The Stones’ No Filter Tour was expected to start April 20 in Miami. Other stops included Jacksonville, Florida; Houston; the New Orleans Jazz Festival; Pasadena and Santa Clara in California; Seattle; Denver; Washington, D.C.; Philadelphia; Foxborough, Massachusetts; East Rutherford, New Jersey; Chicago; and Ontario, Canada.

Springstein ALSO puts on a superb show.

One show was at the soccer stadium in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. We were in the upper deck and I swear the entire structure was swaying.

Wild Horses is one of my favs, too-also their stage version of Time is On My Side-heard that for the 1st concert I went to...

Professional pride and self-respect should cause them to quit and retire.

It's the old bluesman ethos. Play until you die.

When they are on, no other band in the world comes close.

I've seen lots of bands. Saw them on the Voodoo Lounge Tour, and you're right, no other band comes close.

Gimme Mick, gimme Mick
Baby’s hair, bulgin’ eyes, lips so thick
Are you woman, are you man
I’m your biggest funked-up fan
So rock me and roll me ’til I’m sick.

I refuse to gain weight, eat junk food-I won’t stop working and working out, quit dirty dancing or belting the R-rated lyrics on jobsites and in my 4x4 until my ashes get scattered-and maybe not then, if I’ve got good karma-but that is just me-to each their own enjoyment...

If it isn’t fun, it isn’t living...

He probably just needed some shunts for the ticker.
Maybe he went in for a “young person blood transfusion” recommended by Keith’s doc.
I heard that this is Keith’s not so secret solution to a drug weary liver..

I could use an oil change myself.
Maybe I will just squeeze it out of some 20 year old millennial.

After all, I am an eeeeevil 55 year old baby boomer white man.

Rock on old dudes!

LP versions with the volume up of “Start me up,” “Gimme Shelter,” “19th Nervous Breakdown,” “Satisfaction,” “Get Off My Cloud” & Get yer Ya Ya’s out live version of “Street Fighting Man” are unsurpassed R&R.

I bet Dave Clark is glad all over he isn’t playing teen music in his senior years.

Like Phil Collins, who has to sit to perform. Personally, I stopped listening to the Stones when I was sitting in my dorm room shortly after having become a Christian, listening to a Stones album.

I saw the song I was listening to, "Sympathy For The Devil." I trashed the album. They are a horribly corrupt group of people and no self-respecting Christian should ever give them any money.

DAYUM!

I'D GLADLY PAY $400 for a floor seat to see Mick sing Ruby Tuesday to Y'all and then sing "LET'S SPEND THE NIGHT TOGETHER" to ME!

God speed, Mick!

I saw a lot of the great bands back in the 70s. The Stones weren’t one lot them, sadly.

What a drag it is getting old...

Especially when you're carrying on about things that could only be of interest to a teenager.

Saw them at the Okalnd Coliseum for the 1978 Some Girls Tour. Then a long hiatus and five nights again in Oakland for the Voodoo Lounge Tour. Sigh....

Since most of us started cranking that stereo up enough to blow bass speakers and jamming by the time we were 12-13-and we are still cranking it up at work, on the way home, on the weekend, etc-have you ever wondered why more of us are not either deaf or wearing hearing aids? Didn’t all those adults tell that is what would happen?

If I built a time machine I’d put early Mick and Keith as my first goals.
Amazing!
Their stuff as ‘old guys’ is great but...

Funny....I hardly paid any attention to lyrics when I was a teenager.
