The Rolling Stones audience from inside the “Tongue Pit” looking from the stage to the back of the arena. Approximately, 300 tickets were sold for the “Tongue Pit,” which was a section close to the stage where no chairs were set. First come, first served to the best locations. I wound up in 1st & 2nd rows–right in front of Keith Richards. I was 16 years old in June 1972, when I first saw the Rolling Stones (2 of 3 shows at the Spectrum) © Roger Barone 2013
