Rolling Stones to stop in Toronto during nine-day North American tour

The Rolling Stones are back and celebrating 50 years of rocking out.

The band announced its nine-stop “50 & Counting” North America tour Wednesday, which continues with concerts the band gave in New York and London last year to celebrate their 50-year anniversary.

“We did a few shows in London and New York last year…and had such a good time that we thought…let’s do some more,” Mick Jagger is quoted as saying on the band’s website.  “It’s a good show.  Lots of the classic stuff everyone wants to hear…with a few little gems tucked in here and there. ”

The only Canadian city on the stop is Toronto on May 25 when the Rolling Stones will play at the Air Canada Centre. Tickets go on sale April 8 at 10 a.m. and will almost certainly sell out.

Other U.S. cities the band will hit up include:  Los Angeles,  Oakland, San Jose, Las Vegas, Anaheim, Chicago, Boston and Philadelphia.
