The Rolling Stones, London

Rock royalty will be coming to London's O2 Arena this week in the form of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts.

The Rolling Stones will be taking to the stage on three separate nights to perform hits from A Bigger Bang, their first new album for eight years, which was released in 2005.

They will also be thrashing out a number of legendary tunes from their impressive back catalogue, such as (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction, Sympathy for the Devil and Wild Horses.

The three concerts will take place at the O2 Arena on Tuesday August 21st, Thursday August 23rd and Sunday August 26th, rounding off the European leg of their two-year long world tour with a bang.

The Rolling Stones were catapulted to fame in the 1960s and have since become one of the biggest rock bands to grace the earth.

In November 2006 the Bigger Bang tour was declared the highest-grossing tour of all time, proving that after more than 30 years in the limelight the rock legends still have what it takes to captivate their audiences and put on a great show.
