The Rolling Stones are making plans to embark on a world tour in 2002. The outing will mark the group's 40th anniversary.

No dates have been announced, and it is not known if the group plans to release an album in conjunction with the tour. According to a group spokesperson, "discussions are underway" to lock down the particulars.

The group last toured in early 1999 in support of its 1998 live album, "No Security." That 34-date outing grossed $66.7 million, according to Pollstar. According to Amusement Business, the Rolling Stones' concerts grossed nearly $751 million in the 1990s on 12 million tickets sold.

"No Security" was recorded during the group's 1997-1998 tour behind 1997's "Bridges to Babylon," the group's most recent studio effort.

Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards recently performed at Madison Square Garden as part of the Oct. 20 Concert for New York benefit.

The Rolling Stones' first live performance took place at London's Marquee Club on July 12, 1962, according to All Music Guide.



I believe in the Faith... that can save me.
I believe in the hope and I pray...
That someday it may raise me... above these badlands
