History

Historical Context

Since the Stones’ No Filter Tour drew 1.5 million fans and $237.8 million in 2017-18, the band has repeatedly reshaped dates when health issues arise—Mick Jagger’s April 2019 procedure forced a North American postponement, and the COVID-19 pandemic delayed 2020 shows. Artists such as Rod Stewart similarly adjust schedules, relying on insurance and flexible booking.
