If they promise not to smash their guitars (or Zimmer frames) on stage the Stones can play in Blackpool again
It’s been like a J.K. Rowling book, Harry Potter and the Bleeding Ban of Blackpool, or something to that effect – but the long, forced exile is over and the curse has been lifted.
So, after more than four decades the Stones can finally stop rolling and take some well-deserved time off, to lie on the beach and gather some moss:
A BAN on the ROLLING STONES playing in a seaside resort has been lifted — after 44 YEARS.
The former hellraisers, fronted by MICK JAGGER, were barred from performing in Blackpool after a 1964 ballroom concert ended in a riot.
Fifty people were taken to hospital after rowdy fans tore up seats, smashed chandeliers and threw bottles.
But council leader Peter Callow said: “The ban has now been lifted and the group are welcome to play here again.”
