Rolling Stones Announce Return To Hyde Park

The Stones are rolling back into Hyde Park more than 40 years after they famously played a free concert there to thousands of people.

The gig in the central London park is scheduled for July 6.

"Hyde Park holds such great memories for us and we can't think of anywhere better to perform to our UK fans this summer," said frontman Mick Jagger.

The band's concert on July 5, 1969, was held just two days after the death of founder member Brian Jones.

It marked the live debut of his replacement guitarist, Mick Taylor.

Tickets for the new event - which features three stages - will go on general sale on Friday for £95.

The band also announced a full North American tour, with dates in cities including Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Chicago, Boston as well as Toronto.

Keith Richards said: "We all had such a ball last year, and the energy between the band is so good, we can't wait to get back on that stage where the Stones belong."

The band held a few concerts last year to mark their 50th anniversary – though they incurred criticism because some of the tickets at the 02 Arena cost over £350.

Guitarist Ronnie Wood said the preparation has cost them millions of pounds.

"We feel no bad thing about ticket prices. We've got to make something."

The band is also headlining Glastonbury this year, playing the festival on Saturday June 29.
