Update (Feb 5): We’ve added even more clips below…

The Rolling Stones Latin America tour kicked off Wednesday night, February 3rd, in Santiago, Chile at Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos. Dubbed “América Latina Olé,” the stadium tour also makes stops in Buenos Aires, Rio, and Mexico City among its brief 13 dates. Since the band members are of “a certain age,” they’ve scheduled plenty of days off: the 13 concerts span six weeks. You do the math.

The classic rockers began their performance with – naturally – “Start Me Up” followed by “It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll,” “Let’s Spend the Night Together” and “Tumbling Dice.” The complete 19-song list from Setlist.fm:

“Start Me Up”
“It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll”
“Let’s Spend the Night Together”
“Tumbling Dice”
“Out of Control”
“She’s a Rainbow”
“Wild Horses”

“Honky Tonk Women”
“You Got the Silver” (Keith Richards on lead vocals)
