MetLife Stadium, New Jersey Show 2. Not The Sopranos. (Show 1 pictured up top)
Once again this year, we were able to join our friends the Rolling Stones, on their historic Hackney Diamonds Tour.
After back to back tours during the Covid era, this tour brought back a sense of normalcy. But it was bitter sweet as our friend, and former Red39 staffer, passed away last year.
It was great to see everyone again. It's like a giant family reunion. They are such a well oiled machine on tour, with an incredible staff that we just love to see them do their thing.
And the band was on fire. New songs, old songs...it's the Stones and they are still rocking.
Our first stop was New York, with the band having two shows at MetLife stadium in NJ.
The band was fantastic and it was great seeing the band and our New York friends. We also hit Orlando, Atlanta and two shows in Chicago.
It was great to enjoy more Chicago pizza, as our hotel was across the street from Giordano's. Also good to have Vienna Beef hot dog delivered. Thanks Jan!
