My Dad first saw The Rolling Stones in January 1973 at the Forum in Los Angeles. “When you’d be arrested if you were caught with any amount of weed,” he joked. He had long hair and a mustache and remembers the night “like it was yesterday. They were so good. I mean, really, they were amazing.”
Almost 50 years later, I would get to see them perform for the first time.
On July 10, which also happened to be my birthday, my family, friends, and I attended the first of two Rolling Stones shows at Sofi Stadium in Los Angeles, one of the last stops on their Hackney Diamonds Tour .
