On Friday (29 March 2013) the iconic band has added a message to their official website with the simple statement ‘5 DAYS & COUNTING…’.
On Wednesday, The Stones confirmed they would headline the Glastonbury Festival in England on Saturday June 29. Co-incidentally that same day Bill Wyman’s band Rhythm Kings was also announced for Glastonbury.
