Copacabana Beach

The Rolling Stones played one of the biggest gigs in the whole of music history here. Over one million fans crowded onto the beach in February of 2006, hundreds sleeping on the sand. edit

Russ Williams commented:

I interviewed the guys while they were tour and witnessed the phenomenon surrounding these four, very normal family men, who are still so thrilled to be playing the music they love for a living. Copacabana beach was an example of how no matter where they go in the world, people of any age and music preference will follow.
