p2pnet.net News:- Rolling Stones fans in Moncton, New Brunswick in Canada, are using the Net to try to convince the band to play just one more gig in the city in its upcoming 2005/2006 grand tour.

The North American first leg opens August 21 in Boston and the final stop is slatted for Houston on December 1 with Sold Out everywhere.

There’s a show booked in Moncton for September 3 but local fans definitely aren’t willing to let it go at that. So they’ve started an online petition to get the Stones to stick around for another performance.

And it’s going well, says a post on the Times & Transcript’s E-Brief, where you’ll also find the petition link.

“As of press time last night, 25,300 fans added their names to the list of those who want to see an encore Stones concert,” it says.

If you want to add your name, make it quick.

The Times & Transcript is on CanadaEast.com whose editor, Edith Robb, says she’ll keep thesite online for several days before analyzing the information to make sure it reflects individual voter numbers.

From there, it’ll go to the Stones’ promoters.

The Stones tour will probably take in Mexico, South America and the Far East ncluding, possibly, mainland China and wil end in Europe around this time next year.
