A video featuring Johnny Depp, The Who guitarist Pete Townshend and
Iggy Pop talking about the rockers kicked off the show at the O2
Arena.
The Lust For Life singer joked of the band: "We'd never seen people
with teeth like that. And skin like that. Ugh!...The sound of Keith's
guitar - it was like being hit with a dead mackerel."
Frontman Mick Jagger referenced the fact that their set over ran
during their first London gig on Sunday, costing them £100,000 in
fines for breaking local council rules about acts adhering to a strict
curfew.
He also took the opportunity to joke about the astronomical ticket
prices some fans had paid to attend the concert, telling the crowd:
"We're more relaxed tonight, we'll get to play the whole thing. We had
to pay £100,000 because we went on too long. That's like... 10 seats!"
Florence + The Machine frontwoman Welch joined Jagger for Gimme
Shelter and guitar legend Eric Clapton also took to the stage, playing
blues guitar on the song Champagne and Reefer.
