The Alliance for Lifetime Income, a trade group for the annuities business, will be the sole sponsor for the Rolling Stones “No Filter” tour in the U.S. this fall. The tour was postponed last year because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“We’ve all spent the past 16 months focused on protecting our health and fighting back a global pandemic. Now, with the country opening up again, we’re excited to be a part of this iconic tour and one-of-a-kind show as we educate millions of Stones fans, now more than ever, about the need for protected income in retirement,” Jean Statler, the organization’s CEO, said in a statement.

The 12-city tour will start on Sept. 26 in St. Louis and end in Austin, Texas, on Nov. 20.

In 2019, the group was the sole sponsor of the Rolling Stones’ 16-show U.S. tour.
