The Rolling Stones To Appear On Both Stage And Screen At Glastonbury

This year’s Glastonbury Music Festival features the Rolling Stones, on their “50 and Counting Tour”, performing on Saturday, June 29. On Sunday, June 30 a special screening of The Rolling Stones 'Charlie is my Darling - Ireland 1965' from ABKCO Films will take place in the Pilton Place Cinema Tent on the festival grounds.
The Glastonbury audience will be treated to newly discovered concert and interview footage, woven into an intimate behind-the-scenes diary of life on the road with the young Stones. Shot during a quick two day tour of Ireland, just weeks after (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction hit Number 1 on the charts, it features the first professionally filmed concert performances of the band and documents the early frenzy of their fans and the riots their appearances ignited.
Originally shot and directed by pioneering filmmaker Peter Whitehead and produced by Andrew Loog Oldham, the film was never officially released although bits and pieces have surfaced over the years. This new 65 minute cut by the Grammy Award-winning duo of producer Robin Klein and director Mick Gochanour, showcases electrifying full performances of The Last Time, Time Is On My Side and (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.
Motel rooms host impromptu songwriting sessions and familiar classics are heard in their infancy as riff and lyric are united. 'Charlie is my Darling – Ireland 1965' is the meticulously restored, invaluable frame that captures the spark about to combust into The Greatest Rock and Roll Band in the World
