The Rolling Stones have a few surprises in store for fans attending their latest tour.
On Wednesday night (July 3), the legendary rockers performed a cover of “Mercy, Mercy” for the first time in 50 years at FedExField in Landover, Maryland. The Stones last played the Don Covay & the Goodtimers cover during their famous 1969 concert in London’s Hyde Park.
“It’s a long time ago,” Mick Jagger told the crowd before performing the classic. “So we’re going to try to remember it.”
