The Rolling Stones at MetLife Stadium

I first saw the Rolling Stones in concert at Madison Square Garden in 1969. After being mesmerized by the first concert, I attended all three concerts that weekend. Over the past 55 years, I have seen approximately 75 Rolling Stones concerts all over the United States. I have seen thousands of concerts by countless other rock bands over the past 57 years. The Rolling Stones concert at MetLife Stadium on May 23 was the best rock concert in history.
