Rolling Stones Will Come to Barclays Center, After All

Fans were originally disappointed when the band scheduled dates in Newark, N.J. over the brand-new Barclays Center.

Sure, it’s only rock ‘n roll, but excited Stones fans will be able to catch the legendary band in Brooklyn after all, on Saturday, December 8.

Tickets for the just-announced show will go on sale Monday, November 19 at 10 a.m.

After it was announced that for their ‘The Stones – 50 and Counting’ mini-tour, fans were disappointed. Officials with the band explained that the snub was not intentional, it was only that the Prudential Center had the capacity to film the show for a pay-per-view package.
