SK to screen Rolling Stones: Some Girls, Live in Texas

Rolling Stones: Some Girls, Live in Texas, a movie which captures the band at the height of their musical career, will soon be screened at select Ster Kinekor cinemas.

Capturing The Rolling Stones at their live best, and fully restored to the highest level of picture and sound quality, "Some Girls Live in Texas 1978" was filmed at the Will Rogers Memorial Centre in Forth Worth, Texas on 18 July 1978 on what many fans consider to be one of the band's greatest tours.

This was due to the band's 'back to basics' approach, both musically and visually, as the shows were stripped back compared to previous tours, harnessing the new punk rock attitude of the late seventies.

Top of the charts in no time

Showcasing many songs from the "Some Girls" album, celebrated for being the Rolling Stones' most direct and diverse collection of music, and which by the time the band arrived in Texas, had gone to the top of the US charts, this concert demonstrates the sheer force and raw energy of The Rolling Stones live on stage.

"Rolling Stones: Some Girls, Live in Texas" will be shown at Ster-Kinekor Theatres in Sandton, Gateway and Cavendish Square on 7, 8 and 9 October 2011.
