The Rolling Stones 'Have No Plans To Retire'

The Rolling Stones are not set to retire following a huge world tour, a spokesperson for the band has said.

Tabloid reports at the weekend claimed the band were set to call it a day after one last jaunt, which was apparently due to begin next year and last into 2012.

"They're likely to perform in stadiums,” a source told The Sun. “It's almost certainly the last full-scale world tour.”

However, although the band are understood to be in discussions about touring, they have no plans to retire.

A spokesperson told Gossip Cop: “No, they are not retiring.”

The Rolling Stones, who formed in 1962, have become a prolific live act over the latter stages of their career.

Their most recent A Bigger Bang tour, which ran for two years, grossed $558million.
