The concert took place in New York's Apollo Theater, and according to Rolling Stone, the performance marked "Richards' first major musical appearance since the Rolling Stones last toured five years ago."
So when will the ever-feuding duo return to the stage together?
Stones' bassist Ronnie Wood spoke with BBC-owned Radio Times last week, affirming that the band, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, is "all ready to go" for an upcoming tour, but it's just a "matter of tying up loose ends."

Rapper Lil Wayne decided to add a little diversity to his Cash Money, signing aging rap-rockers Limp Bizkit. Frontman Fred Durst took to Twitter on the 24th, sharing:
"'The game is missing danger, electricity, and rock n roll!!!!' Cash Money Limp Bizkit"
It's an interesting move for both parties; maybe Wayne needs help writing his new prison memoir? Durst certainly has a way with words.

To close, Sunday marks the 80th birthday of Johnny Cash. While his family celebrates in Arkansas, others are paying homage to the American legend from every corner of the country.
