The Rolling Stones paid moving tribute to their late drummer Charlie Watts on opening night of their ‘No Filter’ tour in St. Louis.
The Rolling Stones opened the latest leg of their ‘No Filter’ tour in St. Louis on Sunday night, and as expected, the group paid deep tribute to Charlie Watts, their drummer since January of 1963, who passed away last month at the age of 80. The show opened with a video montage of Watts across the years, as an isolated drum track played, sometimes in sync with the video. The group then took the stage and burst into their 1968 anthem, “Street Fighting Man.” Aftter the second song, “It’s Only Rock N’ Roll (but I Like It),” co-founders Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, with guitarist Ronnie Wood, moved to the front of the stage and joined hands.
