The COVID-19 pneumonia pandemic could complicate many Americans’ efforts to plan for retirement, and it’s now complicating efforts by the Alliance for Lifetime Income to promote income planning.
The income planning outreach group is the sole sponsor of the Rolling Stones’ 2020 “No Filter” tour.
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced AEG Presents/Concerts West, the organizer, to postpone the tour.

AEG announced the decision to postpone the tour Tuesday.
The tour was set to start May 8 in San Diego and end in Atlanta July 9.
The four members of the band — Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood— said in a statement that they are hugely disappointed to have to postpone the tour.
“We are sorry to all the fans who were looking forward to it as much as we were, but the health and safety of everyone has to take priority,” the band members said in the statement. “We will all get through this together — and we’ll see you very soon.”
Jagger himself tweeted, “I’m sorry the shows have to be postponed but staying healthy is everyone’s priority right now.”
