    Wood: Rolling Stones could play more shows

    Associated Press – Thu, Oct 18, 2012 5:19 PM EDT

    LONDON (AP) — Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood says the legendary band could possibly play more new shows after they perform a series of concerts in Britain and the U.S.

    Attending the premiere Thursday of "Crossfire Hurricane," a new film documenting the band's career, Wood said he couldn't believe "how well the band is sounding" in rehearsals.

    Shows are scheduled for Nov. 25 and 29 at London's O2 Arena, followed by gigs on Dec. 13 and 15 at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, just outside of New York.

    The shows mark the first time in five years that the Stones have performed live.

    Wood says "once this wheel is turning I don't think it will be able to stop ... We won't be able to stop."
