The Rolling Stones celebrated the release of their new album, Hackney Diamonds, by playing a show in an intimate New York club. As if the Stones playing a tiny club wasn’t enough, they were joined by Lady Gaga, too.
Per multiple outlets — including the Associated Press, ABC News and Ultimate Classic Rock — the 650-person capacity club was packed with plenty of A-listers. They included Chris Rock, Jimmy Fallon, Trevor Noah, Elvis Costello, Christie Brinkley and more.
The show was made up of a seven-song setlist (below). The Stones played three classic tunes and four songs from their new album. Their encore was “Sweet Sounds of Heaven,” which saw Gaga join the band on stage.
