The Rolling Stones

By September 27, 1981, The Rolling Stones were in the midst of their "Tattoo You" tour, which was promoting their album of the same name that had been released just weeks earlier on August 24, 1981. This album marked a significant moment in their career, as it was a commercial success and revitalized their appeal, featuring hits like "Start Me Up." The Buffalo concert, part of this extensive tour, showcased the band's enduring energy and stage presence, even after nearly two decades since their formation. Notably, George Thorogood was a special guest at the event, adding to the excitement and rock atmosphere of the performance. The tour itself was marked by massive crowds and memorable performances, reinforcing The Rolling Stones' status as one of rock's greatest live acts. This particular show in Buffalo remains a testament to their ability to captivate fans well into the 1980s.
