The Rolling Stones headlined an awe-inspiringly energetic performance last night at BST Hyde Park, with a dazzling setlist, comprised of 19 of their most-loved tracks, as part of their iconic ‘Sixty’ tour across Europe.
On Saturday night, The Rolling Stones returned to BST Hyde Park after nine years to headline The Great Oak stage, as part of their ‘Sixty’ tour across Europe. The legendary rock icons performed an electric set list comprising all their most-loved hits, from ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want’ to ‘Paint It Black,’ showing no signs of stopping any time soon. Their set followed the support acts, Phoebe Bridgers and The War on Drugs, who delivered similarly enthralling performances, wetting fan’s appetites for the main event. The band burst onto the stage, following a tribute to their renowned drummer Charlie Watts – who passed away in August 2021, this marking their first tour without him – kicking their set off with ‘Street Fighting Man.’ Jagger, at 79, shows no signs of stopping, dancing around with an awe-inspiring and infectious energy and trademark swagger.
Across the two hour set, the band did not pause for breath, moving seamlessly between their biggest hits and demonstrating just why they continue to invoke a breathless fandom and legendary status around them.
