Bruce Springsteen Joined the Rolling Stones for an Awesome Performance During Farewell (?) Tour

The Rolling Stones were a bit before my time, and, I suspect, the same applies to many of you out there. But you'd have to be crazy to not appreciate what they've been able to do over the course of their career, and if you factor in the incredible amount of damage they've done to their bodies—both legally, through near-constant touring, and illegally, through Keith Richards' almost 60-year quest to single-handedly prop up the nation of Columbia's GDP—it's a modern miracle that they all (sans Brian Jones) were still around to embark on a 50-year anniversary tour this year.

It all ended last night at Newark's Prudential Center, with a star-studded performance that included Lady Gaga singing the Merry Clayton hook on "Gimme Shelter," Bruce Springsteen joining Mick on "Tumbling Dice," and the Black Keys helping the band tear through a cover of Bo Diddley's "Who Do You Love?" Below are a few of the videos we were able to find of the concert, which may end up being the last Stones' performance ever.
