Attention all you rock ‘n’ roll fans out there, The Rolling Stones are coming to a town near you. Yes that’s right legendary roll ‘n’ roll band The Rolling Stones are going on tour and there are coming to a town near you soon. The first concert is just a month away and tickets have only just gone on sale, but already The Rolling Stones concert tickets are selling faster than a racing car in the Indy 500.
Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood may be advancing in years, but they are still as popular as ever. At the moment the band have announced eight tour dates for America and Canada, with at least one more to come in Los Angeles.

Last year The Rolling Stones celebrated their 50th birthday with a series of gigs in London and America, something that Mick Jagger and the band found to be “pretty amazing.” Jagger said, “‘50 And Counting’ has been pretty amazing so far. We did a few shows in London and New York last year and had such a good time that we thought let’s do some more. It’s a good show. Lots of the classic stuff everyone wants to hear with a few little gems tucked in here and there.”
This spring and early summer is the time to dig out your dancing shoes and get your glad rags on, and buy your discounted Rolling Stones tickets. You had better be quick though because if last year is anything to go by The Rolling Stones concert tickets will not be available for long.
