The world’s biggest pop stars worked together to pull off a unique concert on Saturday night titled One World: Together At Home.

And The Rolling Stones gave a sensational performance as a band, despite all being apart in four separate locations.  

Their performance of You Can’t Always Get What You Want was brought together via a Zoom video call with both Mick Jagger, 76, and Keith Richards, 76, playing acoustic guitars from their respective living rooms.

Ronnie Wood, 72, played an electric guitar and in the absence of a real drum kit, Charlie Watts, 78, masterfully and hilariously demonstrated his air drum skills in his music room.

All four band members were at home, with Keith enjoying a pint of beer as he delivered the 1968 classic. 

Last month, The Rolling Stones revealed they had postponed their ‘No Filter’ summer tour due to the pandemic.
