The vintage British rock group, the Rolling Stones, launched their first ever concert tour of Japan on Wednesday night (February 14). The group opened the tour before 60,000 delighted fans at the Tokyo Dome, where they will perform all of their sell-out ten bookings.
Japanese fans have had to wait until now for their first glimpse of the group "live", after a previous tour scheduled for 1973 was cancelled because lead singer Mick Jagger was arrested on a drug charge.
Jagger opened the concert with a greeting for Valentine's Day, saying the Stones had had to wait a "very log time for this", before the group launched into the 27-song concert.
