In a post on Instagram the following morning, the band expressed their gratitude to the Houston audience for an incredible opening night. The tour, which supports their latest album, is set to continue with shows in cities like Las Vegas, Orlando, Chicago, Los Angeles, and more throughout May, June, and July.

Reflecting on ‘Hackney Diamonds’, NME praised the album as an “absolute barnstormer” upon its release in October. The first studio album of new material from the band since 2005’s ‘A Bigger Bang’, this record showcases the enduring talent and creativity of The Rolling Stones.

In a recent interview with NME, Ronnie Wood discussed the new songs on ‘Hackney Diamonds’, describing them as “explosive” and expressing confidence in their live performances. While the band could easily play the entire album, he acknowledged the importance of their extensive back catalogue in creating memorable concert experiences.
