The Rolling Stones announced this morning that the show features the Stone’s January 2003 MSG performance during their 40th anniversary world tour. Fully restored & remastered the set is available on DVD, Blu-Ray, CD & vinyl. The concert also includes a special guest appearance from Sheryl Crow plus previously unreleased performances of Start Me Up, Tumbling Dice, Gimme Shelter and Sympathy For The Devil.. Tuesday, the band posted a clip on its social media of Keith Richards onstage hitting the opening riff to “Street Fighting Man” before the typeface announced “Wednesday 13th April – 3pm BST / 10am EDT / 7am PDT.” Fans were conjecturing that the band was rolling out its full ‘Stones 60’ world tour itinerary–or the long-awaited release date for its first all original album in 16 years–or both.
The Rolling Stones’ 14-stadium European run kicks off on June 1st in Madrid, Spain and plays through July 31st in Stockholm, Sweden.
