Throwback Concert: The Rolling Stones at The XL Center 1999

Throwback Concert: The Rolling Stones at The XL Center 1999

99.1 PLR celebrates 50 years! This week we are celebrating another great year in our history: 1999!

That year PLR welcomed The Rolling Stones to Hartford’s XL Center (formerly called the Hartford Civic Center) for two shows on back-to-back nights. The Stones were on their “No Security” Tour to support the live album “No Security,” which featured live recordings of their “Bridges To Babylon” Tour in 1997-98. Several different bands opened for The Stones on the “No Security” Tour, including Bryan Adams, Jonny Lang and Sugar Ray. In Hartford, the Goo Goo Dolls were the supporting act.

Interesting note: On the very same night of The Stones’ second show in Hartford, the UConn Men’s Basketball team had captured its first NCAA National Championship down in Tampa, Florida. The Huskies beat Duke 77-74 creating a party-like atmosphere around Hartford that night.

Today we look back at both nights of The Rolling Stones in Hartford in 1999…
