“This is a landmark event for Macau and for
Sands China,” said Edward Tracy, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Sands China Ltd. “The Rolling Stones are a global

Macau is sensational. At Sands
China we are committed to bringing the best of the best to Macau
through our multi-tiered entertainment strategy, delivering
ever-exciting, highly-diverse shows to establish Macau as a top
entertainment hub in Asia, widening both the scope and quality of
options for visitors and locals alike.”
Mick Jagger said, “Can't wait to be back on stage, especially in
Macau; I
am really looking forward to playing all your favourite songs and
seeing you all very soon.”
Keith Richards added:
“The best place in the world for me is out on that stage. Standby
everyone...it’s back to where we belong – me, Mick, Charlie and
Ronnie and some friends all rocking out together. The wheels are
in motion and we’re on our way…see you very soon!”
The Rolling Stones 14 on Fire tour, produced by AEG Live, will see
Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood head
back out on the road after a mammoth run of concerts in the U.S.
and the U.K. in 2013 – an exhilarating and critically acclaimed
celebration of five decades of the Rolling Stones bringing their
iconic music and groundbreaking stage shows to audiences around
the globe.
Mick Taylor, who was a member of the
Rolling Stones from 1969-1974, will be a special guest for this
tour.
The stage design for the indoor concerts is
based on the band’s ubiquitous tongue and lips logo, which extends
out into the audience. The exclusive ‘Tongue Pit’ general
admission standing area inside the stage will give fans an
incomparable 360 degree concert experience. Known for their
ground-breaking sets and use of cutting-edge technology, the
Stones’ set design will feature video screens and special effects
that will enhance the high-octane experience of attending a live Stones show.
The band will treat their generations
of fans to a set packed full of classic Stones hits such as “Gimme
Shelter,” “Paint It Black,” “Jumping Jack Flash,” “Tumbling Dice”
and “It’s Only Rock ‘N’ Roll,” curated with lesser known gems,
plus a couple of unexpected cover versions.
