Yup, that's a logical conclusion.
Sheesh. Maybe they weren't invited. Or maybe they were busy.

You'd might as well ask why wasn't Paul McCartney their? Why wasn't Micheal Jackson their? Why wasn't Van Halen their? Why wasn't I their?
I mean, I can see why you're asking, but not everybody could be their.
If you're wondering why the Stones didn't make any kind of statement of Freddie's death or something I don't know. The one thing that strikes me the most is why Micheal Jackson didn't participate. I mean, he was Freddie's friend and musical collaborater. Then again thats just me. Take care.

The Stones didn't make a statement because they didn't have to. I don't think their paths crossed all that much, so there was no need to do so -- just as Queen never really remarked on the deaths of, say, Keith Moon, John Bonham, or whatever. Only Roger really spoke about John Lennon's death.
As for Michael not appearing, he and Freddie had a falling out in the mid eighties, so while I'm sure Michael was sad to see a former friend pass away, there might have been so much acrimony there that he just didn't want to get involved (besides, I'm sure he was in his own world in the early nineties).

Because possibly they had their own problems including Bill Wyman leaving the band after the whole sordid affair that he was having sex with a girl not much older than myself. They sent a 'red-hot sympathy card' and then moved back to sweet-talking the Child Protection Agency.

THey weren't that close as friends. And they only did one small project together. You could also be asking why Billy Squire or Eddie Howell or Jo Dare weren't there

The only one I think who should've been there was Montserrat Caballe.

I was just listening to Queen's I Go Crazy and just thought it would have been awesome to see The Stones and Queen perform it live at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert. Afterall, it mention's both Queen and The Stones in the lyrics!
