The Rolling Stones played their historic free gig in Cuba last on March 25, 2016.
The legendary band – consisting of Sir Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts – took to the stage at the Ciudad Deportiva in Havana as 500,000 fans piled in to the venue to watch their idols become the first Western band to play in the country since the Communist Revolution in 1959.
Sir Mick welcomed their fans in Spanish before opening the performance with the 1968 hit ‘Jumpin’ Jack Flash’.
The band swept through 18 songs in the two-hour gig, including ‘Sympathy for the Devil’, before drawing the concert to a close with their two most iconic tracks; ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want’ and ‘Satisfaction’.
The concert marked a turning point for Cuba after the band’s music was banned in the country – including on the radio – for many years because it was believed to be subversive.
