Rolling Stones add new Chicago, New York shows
After selling out upcoming stadium gigs in the New York City and Chicago markets, The Rolling Stones have announced plans to play arena shows in both cities.
The latest itinerary issued by the ageless rockers has the group touching down at New York's Madison Square Garden on Sept. 13, and playing at Chicago's United Center on Jan. 23. The band's previously announced gigs at Chicago's Soldier Field and East Rutherford, NJ's Giants Stadium have already sold out.
Tickets for the new Chicago and New York shows go on sale Friday (6/10) and Monday (6/13), respectively. On-sales also get underway Saturday (6/11) for previously announced dates in Portland, OR; Seattle; and Glendale, AZ. Before tickets go on sale to the general public, pre-sales tickets will be available to members of the Stones' online fan club. Details are available at the Stones' website.
The first leg of the Stones' 2005/2006 tour opens Aug. 21 in Boston, and most announced shows have already sold out. The jaunt wraps up Dec. 1 in Houston, and about 35 shows are confirmed so far. More North American shows are in the works for early 2006, in addition to the just-announced Chicago show.
Aside from North America, the trek is expected touch down in Mexico, South America and the Far East (possibly including the band's first-ever performances in mainland China). The outing will end in Europe during the summer of 2006.
