For a while The Rolling Stones held the record for an outdoor gig. Their free show on Copacabana beach played out to 1.5 million people and you can see the crowd below (along with the bridge they built to get them to the stage direct from the hotel – well it was the Bridges to Babylon tour so fair play)
And here’s a touch of “Satisfaction” from the same show.
No disrespect to Mick but his record has gone, and the brother who took it didn’t need to wear a Brazil shirt to take the crown. Or should we say mitre?
WTF Pope Francis? 3 million people. Crazy.
Imagine the train home.
