Rolling Stones dropping concert hints on billboards around Pittsburgh
Billboards going up around Pittsburgh seem to confirm the Rolling Stones are returning to Pittsburgh this summer.
On Monday, at least 10 digital billboards with lyrics from Stones songs and the tongue-and-lips logo popped up around town.
A fan website It’s Only Rock’n Roll says North American tour dates are expected to be announced this week. The cities rumored to be on the list include Pittsburgh.
Nick Sero, corporate communications manager for Heinz Field on Pittsburgh’s North Shore, declined comment. However, Heinz Field got in on the fun Monday by placing the Rolling Stones logo on its scoreboard. It could be seen from outside the stadium.
If the rumors are true, the Stones would be making their first stop in Pittsburgh in five years.
OK I'm no Sherlock Holmes, but these are the images flashing on the digital billboard along the Parkway West btw. Carnegie & Greentree. I think The Rolling Stones might be coming back to Pittsburgh this Summer! "Hey DVE! It's me, Sean! What's up guys! Hey I was wondering"---click pic.twitter.com/h2dbnGu4sT
