Stones deny Bigger Bang will be last tour

The Rolling Stones have denied Kasabian's Tom Meighan's claim that the Bigger Bang tour will be their last, saying they intend to carry on.

The Rolling Stones have denied claims by quite-mouthy-at-the-moment Kasabian that they are considering quitting touring.

As previously reported, Kasabian have supported the Stones on some European dates on their current Bigger Bang tour. Speaking about that experience, Kasabian's Tom Meighan told reporters that Jagger et al were considering bringing to an end the Stones' grueling live schedule, saying: "[The Bigger Bang dates are] the last ones they'll be playing now. They're about finished. Time's calling on them man and they're gonna stop actually doing it. I can't believe it but they are gonna stop playing".

However, a spokesman for The Stones denied those claims, adding that reporters should "watch this space" for an announcement regarding future live activity. According to Gigwise, the Stones' people said this: "The Rolling Stones categorically deny that the 'Bigger Bang' tour will be their last, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards have continually refuted the rumours. Keith recently said that they were not in it for the money, they are in it for the glory and they thoroughly intend to carry on".
