New York — The official line is "we'll see." But the Rolling Stones seem in such fighting trim, clear-eyed and focused, that it's hard to believe there's not more cooking beyond the current flurry of activity surrounding the band's 50th anniversary.
The archetypal rock `n' roll band is booked for five concerts in London and the New York area over the next month, the last one a Pay Per View event. The Stones on Tuesday released yet another hits compilation with two new songs and HBO is premiering a documentary on their formative years, "Crossfire Hurricane," on Thursday.
"Without saying yes or nay," Keith Richards said in an interview this week, "once this starts rolling, I can't see it stopping. The band feels good about themselves, they still feel they've got something to offer. Obviously there are a lot of people out there who agree. We'll go along with it."

Fifty years ago today, The Rolling Stones played their first gig at London's Marquee Jazz Club. On that night, the newly minted Rolling Stones featured Mick Jagger on vocals, guitarists Brian Jones and Keith Richards, pianist Ian Stewart and bassist Dick Taylor. The identity of the drummer who joined them that fateful night is still infamously up for debate, but as best as Richards can recall, it was friend Mick Avory.
The young R&B band borrowed money from Jagger's dad to rent equipment for the gig. "My parents were extremely disapproving of it all," Jagger told Rolling Stone decades later. "Because it was just not done. It was for very low-class people, remember. Rock 'n' roll singers weren't educated people."
In Life, Richards recalled playing a few of the songs: "Dust My Broom," "Got My Mojo Working" and "Confessin' the Blues" were all on The Stones' first set. "You're sitting with some guys,...
