The Rolling Stones Play The Rarely Performed Live ‘Fool To Cry’ for Los Angeles

The Rolling Stones gave fans at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles a rare treat when they performed ‘Fool To Cry’ for the first time on the 2024 Hackney Diamonds tour.

The song premiered on the second last show of the tour. It’s a rarity live. The Stones have only played it live five times in the past 25 years.

‘Fool To Cry’ was the lead single from the 1976 album ‘Black and Blue’. It reached no 6 in the UK and no 10 in the USA and was performed 42 times in 1976 in Europe but then rarely after. Since 1977 it has only been performed 14 times. This was the first time The Stones played the song for Los Angeles and it had only ever been performed four times before in America.

Watch some fan footage of Saturday’s performance:
