MUSIC legends, The Rolling Stones, are coming to Manchester tomorrow, Friday, for an extra performance on their Licks World Tour.

The gig, at the Manchester Arena, was one of a host of extra performances to be booked to deal with the unprecedented demand for tickets.

Fans can look forward to the famous Keith Richards' swagger and Mick Jagger's now textbook rock and roll mince.

Many have tried to imitate them but for Stones' zealots out there Jagger and Richards are the ultimate rock and roll combination.

Some people thought the band were past their prime in 1979 but only the chosen few who attend tomorrow's spectacle will be able to say if the chaps have pulled it off one more time.

Personally I think it's comforting to know that, though wars may start and finish and prime ministers come and go, you can always count on The Rolling Stones to be larking about on stage somewhere in the world.

Tickets cost £85, £55 and £35. Call the credit card hotline on 0818 719 300 or visit: www.ticketmaster.com
