1 million people for a concert!!!

The Rolling Stones free concert in Rio is expected to attract about 1 million people!! For a lot of people the Stones are totally irrelevant. But when was the last time that an album or a band was instrumental in making social, cultural, political change?!

Relevant or not, I still love the Stones. And if this piece of news hints towards anything, there seem to be millions more.

PS: Altamount was a free concert too. But Rio is definitely not going to be another Altamount. The Rolling Stones are a huge brand now. And they have a lot to lose.
