Rolling Stones fans across the nation will get ultimate satisfaction for one night as this legendary multi-platinum band takes fans back to the summer tour that skyrocketed their careers with “Ladies & Gentlemen … The Rolling Stones.”

This big screen event features classic Stones performances from the 1972 tour and a special, theater-only segment from Mick Jagger. Together with Jagger, Stones greats Keith Richards, Mick Taylor, Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts take fans inside life on the road during that magical summer when they rocked millions of fans in sold-out venues around the world. For the first time in over 30 years, legendary concert footage from the tour will be unveiled by the band for their fans in select movie theaters nationwide on Sept. 16 at 7:30 p.m. local time.

Tickets for “Ladies & Gentlemen … The Rolling Stones” are available at participating box offices and online at www.FathomEvents.com. For a complete list of theater locations and prices, visit the website (theaters may be subject to change).

Presented by NCM Fathom, Eagle Rock Entertainment and Omniverse Vision, this one-night-only event will feature the Stones in a career defining concert, testing the very limits of their own musical power. The footage was captured at four shows in Fort Worth and Houston, Texas on their 1972 North American tour promoting the “Exile on Main Street” album. The music played on that spectacular tour included what would later be known as some of the band’s greatest all-time hits such as “Tumbling Dice,” “Brown Sugar,” “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” and “Jumpin’ Jack Flash.”

“It’s a full on performance and energy levels are really high…everyone’s very together and on,” said Jagger.

Richards agreed with Jagger and recalled, “I knew that ‘Tumbling Dice’ was a killer live.”

“Ladies & Gentlemen … The Rolling Stones” was originally filmed in 1972 in 16mm by Bob Freeze and Steve Gebhardt of John Lennon’s Butterfly Films and has been restored and re-mastered from vintage footage. Movie theater audiences will get a one-time opportunity to flashback and be next to the stage during these historic concerts.

“The summer of 1972 and being on tour with the Rolling Stones is a rare opportunity for the legions of Stones fans and their families to experience history,” said Dan Diamond, vice president of NCM Fathom. “This concert footage has been preserved for 38 years and we are delighted that the Stones want to share it with millions of music fans across the country in hundreds of Fathom-networked theaters.”
