Milan, Italy - Fashion Capital Welcomes Rock in Roll Legends
Milan, Italy welcomed the Rolling Stones for their first European concert after a number of well publicized delays. First, Keith Richards fell out of a tree then Ron Woods went into Rehab. Now the rockers are healthy or as healthy as 60 something men who are not known for healthy living can be.
San Siro football stadium in Milan, Italy hosted the band at the start of their Bigger Bang Tour. According to news reports the band entertained the crowd with songs both old and new and with numerous references to the World Cup winning soccer team. Marco Materazzi and Alessandro Del Piero from the winning team took the stage at the end of the show.
The Rolling Stones seem to have upped the ante when it comes to playing before large crowds. They have recently played at Copacabana Beach before 1.5 million fans, in Bejing, China, the Super Bowl in the US and now Milan, Italy before fans still celebrating their World Cup victory.
