The club will be announced later today. For now we know that Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood are headed to an intimate venue somewhere in the 90028 zip code. Tickets go on sale at 12 p.m. PDT, only at RollingStones.com.
There’s a two-ticket limit and you’ll need to bring your photo ID and credit card to pick up the tickets before the gig. But don’t bring your phone or camera with you to the show tonight. The Stones’ website warns that non-compliance to their rules “will result in an immediate refund and void of ticket purchase.”
Yesterday we pointed out that Brad Paisley was opening for the band June 17 at Nashville’s LP Field. Since then, the band has updated its Twitter page by announcing more special guests. Gary Clark Jr., has the honor of joining the band May 24 at San Diego’s PETCO Park. Kid Rock plays the next stop on May 30 in Columbus’ Ohio Stadium.
Grace Potter tweeted the big news that she’ll be opening for not one, but two Zip Code Tour shows with The Stones – June 3 at Minneapolis’ TCF Bank Stadium and June 6 in Arlington, Texas, at AT&T Stadium. She notes, “This is bucket lists shit!!”
St. Paul & The Broken Bones are also on board for two gigs. You can catch the band June 9 at Atlanta’s Bobby Dodd Stadium and July 11 in Orchard Park, N.Y., at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
Temperance Movement tweeted, “We’re opening for @rollingstones in ORLANDO at @CitrusBowl on 6/12 on the #StonesZip tour. It doesn’t get better!”
