14 On Fire is a concert tour by The Rolling Stones, which started on 21 February 2014 in Abu Dhabi. It is a follow-up to the 50 & Counting... tour which celebrated the 50th anniversary of the band.[1][2] This tour is very much similar to the 50 & Counting... just like the "Urban Jungle" portion of the Stones' Steel Wheels/Urban Jungle Tour in 1990 was similar to the "Steel Wheels" portion in 1989. "14 On Fire" has the same stage design, setlist structure, and clothing/merchandise as 50 & Counting… Also, Mick Taylor is a guest throughout this tour just like 50 & Counting...
