The Rolling Stones finally kicked off the No Filtertour, two months after its original start date was postponed by Mick Jagger's heart surgery.
At Soldier Field in Chicago -- reportedly the band's 38th show in the Windy City -- the Stones did 20 songs, starting with "Street Fighting Man" and ending two hours later with "(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction." The hit-heavy set's only surprise was "Sad Sad Sad," a song from 1989's Steel Wheels which they hadn't done since 2002.
Playing on a stripped-down stage that extended into the audience, there were a few sound issues early on, which Jagger alluded to when he said first nights are always "wobbly." They'll be back at Soldier Field on Tuesday, with 15 more dates through August 31st in Miami.
