Rolling Stones charm Chicago and welcome back Sheryl Crow as on-stage guest

(APOLOGIES FOR THE DELAY BUT INTERNET SUCKS.!)

AEG Live is the promoter of the Rolling Stones' 2013 tour, which features former Rolling Stones guitarist Mick Taylor as a guest on all the tour dates. The tour has been named "50 and Counting" as a celebration of the Rolling Stones' 50th anniversary.
The May 31 concert in Chicago marked the return of "Happy," which has guitarist Keith Richards on lead vocals. "Happy" has been a mainstay at most Rolling Stones concerts since the song came out in 1972. The Stones skipped playing the song at their Chicago concert on May 28, 2013 and their Los Angeles concert on May 20, 2013. Richards has been singing "You Got the Silver" at concerts where "Happy" is not part of the set list. In addition to "Happy," the other song that Richards has been consistently singing lead vocals on for the 2013 tour is "Before They Make Me Run."
As of May 8, 2013, select concerts on the tour will feature a song performed by request from fans who voted online via the official Rolling Stones mobile app. For each concert, fans will be given a choice of five different songs to vote for, and the Rolling Stones will perform the song that gets the most votes for that concert. The Rolling Stones also did this for their "50 and Counting" concerts in 2012. At the concert on May 31, 2103, the song performed by request was "Shine a Light."
There have been celebrity guests at almost every one of the Rolling Stones' "50 and Counting" concerts.
