Rolling Stones 2015 'Zip Code' tour hitting 6 NFL stadiums

A couple of notes on these dates. One, how freaking awesome would the Fourth of July be watching a bunch of 70-year-old legendary rockers shred a setlist of classic songs at a gigantic racetrack? Unreal.
And two, all of the locations are getting a customized Stones logo (which you can see in the video above at the beginning). But only one of them has wolf ears.
Simultaneously amazing and disgusting.
Speaking of amazing, check out the quotes from Mick Jagger and Keith Richards in the press release. Clearly both those gentlemen said these things.
“We are excited to be back in North America playing stadiums this summer!" Jagger shouted. "We are looking forward to being back on stage and playing your favorite songs.”
"We love being out on the road and it is great to come back to North America!" Richards exclaimed. "I can't wait to get back on the stage!”
The Stones are returning to a lot of these venues for the first time in a while. They'll be back in Arrowhead for the first time in 26 years, while they're hitting their fifth (!) appearance at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
