Ronnie Wood, guitarist for the Rolling Stones for fifty years, and previously with the band Faces, conveyed the feeling of doing exactly what he loves most: playing rock'n'roll in a broad sense of the word, accompanied by a group of musicians in tune and with a very well-chosen repertoire. Before he took the stage at the Razzmatazz venue in Barcelona, it is possible that the audience, who had paid 165 euros for the ticket, would have been satisfied just having a legend in front of them without asking for anything extraordinary. However, Wood turned the situation around. It only took him four songs to turn what could have been a pleasant evening with a 79-year-old veteran into a splendid concert. And the audience, who had already welcomed him with endearing affection, began to celebrate the music.

Eternal and tireless, the Rolling Stones continue to give war after 64 years of musical career. The band organized a drone show on the River Thames as it passed through London on Wednesday to present Foreign tongues, their new album, which is released this July 10th. This is the Stones' twenty-fifth studio album and the second after the death of Charlie Watts. Mick Jagger and Ronnie Wood were the hosts of a party at the Hotel St. Clement which was attended by personalities such as actor Daniel Craig, actress Rachel Weisz, comedian Sacha Baron Cohen and former tennis player John McEnroe.
