Mick Jagger Says Don't Expect Reunion Stones Concerts For 50th Anniversary

Next year marks the 50th anniversary of The Rolling Stones as a band, and given that the band set new bars for being stodgy businessmen in their bevy of 21st century tours, you'd expect that the band has some serious tour plans lined up for 2012. But not so fast, says Mick Jagger. He said that fans shouldn't "hold their breath" for a Stones reunion tour in 2012. Why? Well, apparently Jagger and Richards have been on rough ground together since Richards' book, Life, took not-so-veiled shots at Jagger's dong size, and had references to how Richards hated him for attaching his solo deal onto a Stones contract.

So, yes, librarians across America, books still do matter. But the worst part is that Richards is also claiming he's having more fun playing in SuperHeavy, his group with Joss Stone, Damian Marley, A.R. Rahman and Dave Stewart, anyway, so there. In your face Keith Richards. [NME]
