Avid Rolling Stones fans have spread the word that Lady Gaga could be featuring on their US tour after finding the rehearsal location where they heard the band play Sweet Sounds of Heaven – a track featuring the iconic popstar
The Rolling Stones’ US tour setlist has leaked and hints that Lady Gaga will join them on stage.
Their army of diehard fans discovered the band’s rehearsal location and heard them play Sweet Sounds of Heaven, a track featuring Lady Gaga. This has fuelled rumours she will join them for a duet when they play two dates in Los Angeles in July.
Sir Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood kick off their sold-out Hackney Diamonds Tour on April 28 at the NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. This week they were polishing songs at a venue in Burbank, LA.
The high-octane rehearsal included nine of the 12 tracks from the latest album, though sources say that only four or five will be performed per night. Mess It Up, Depending on You, Bite My Head Off and Tell Me Straight – with a blistering solo from Keith, 80 – will all feature during the tour.
The group have also been rehearsing rarely heard songs such as Sad Sad Sad, as well as ballads Angie, She’s A Rainbow, Sweet Black Angel and Let It Bleed. Meanwhile, uptempo favourites Start Me Up, Sympathy for the Devil, Jumpin’ Jack Flash, Honky Tonk Women, Street Fighting Man, Paint it Black and Gimme Shelter are likely to be highlights during the 19-date tour.
But Brown Sugar, which the band ditched in 2021 after controversy over lyrics referring to slavery, remains off the list. One fan outside the Burbank rehearsal space said: “From what we’ve heard this week, these gigs will be absolutely magic and people should be begging, borrowing or stealing tickets.
“As well as all the Hackney Diamonds hits and their classics, it’s very likely they will perform some songs for the last time live. Opening night in Houston is going to be a real party and people will be talking about seeing the Stones there for a very long time.”
The tour – which takes in stadiums in cities such as Las Vegas, Seattle and Cleveland and winds up on July 17 – marks the 60th anniversary of the band’s first US tour in 1964. And in a comic nod to their ages, it is sponsored by AARP – the American Association of Retired Persons.
Among other songs they have been rehearsing are Get Off My Cloud, Like A Rolling Stone, Beast of Burden, Emotional Rescue, Fool to Cry, Midnight Rambler, Tumbling Dice and Shattered.
