It's been just ever so slightly over 40 years since the Rolling Stone's 1973 Pacific Tour.
This video above is a documentary about the Rolling Stones aforementioned tour including interviews with the band and some concert footage.
The interviews were filmed at Montsalvat Castle in Melbourne on February 16, 1973 and the concert footage featured is from the Kooyang Tennis Courts in Melbourne on February 17th. Sadly nothing from the Brisbane leg at the Milton Tennis Courts.
It originally aired on March 6th, 1973 on ABC. At times, it's actually a rather amusing piece with the reporter offering some charming observations about the band. For instance, she speculates that Keith Richard, the "Deadly Nightshade", won't live until 70 and that Bill Wyman will be the first to quit the Stones.
It also touches on the troubles Mick Jagger had entering the country and a brief scandal when drugs were found on the plane they arrived on in Brisbane.
February 14, 1973: Milton Park Tennis Courts, Brisbane
