Scorsese's Rolling Stone Film Delayed

Billboard.com reports that noted director Martin Scorsese is pushing the release date back for his Rolling Stones concert documentary Shine A Light. The film was originally slated for a September 21 debut but now a spokesperson for Viacom Inc. says that it's been postponed for seven more months, and won't be released until mid-2008.

The reason for the delays cites that the band is currently on tour in Europe which would make it difficult for them to promote the film. We're suspicious though; we see that the Stones finish up their tour at the end of August. Why the seven month gap? Perhaps Keith needs time to write that memoir.
