The Rolling Stones “officially” kicked off their ’50 and Counting’ Tour last night at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, CA, welcoming a few friends (UCLA’s Marching Band, Gwen Stefani & Keith Urban) to the party. Reports from pals in attendance said that despite the early trouble getting in (mostly for the $85 will call tickets) it was well worth the effort, as the Stones delivered over two and a half hours of material (23 songs), including their first live performance of 1980’s “Emotional Rescue.” Check out the complete setlist and some videos (incl. Gwen sporting a signature lips shirt) from last night.
