Old rivals Rolling Stones and the Beatles are going head-to-head.
After it was revealed in last month's Mirror, it's now confirmed that Rolling Stones will be playing a massive gig in London's Hyde Park on the same night that Sir Paul McCartney is headlining Glastonbury festival.
As we reported last month, festival bosses had been hoping to land the Stones for a huge gig in Hyde Park on the same night that his old rival was set to play Glasto - and it's all come off.
The show will be part of a 60th anniversary tour for Sir Mick Jagger and the gang.
They'll play 14 shows across 10 countries, kicking off in Madrid on June 1 and heading for London on June 25 and July 3 as part of the BST festival.
Mick will of course be joined on stage by his bandmates Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood for their SIXTY tour.
The band excitedly announced their shows this morning, tweeting: "The Stones just keep on rolling! We are thrilled to announce the Rolling Stones 2022 Tour! Titled SIXTY to celebrate 60 special years together-Mick, Keith & Ronnie will be playing dates across Europe this summer including 2 shows at London’s BST Hyde Park".
But that same night, Beatles legend Sir Paul will be on stage at Glastonbury, forcing fans of both to choose between them.
A source had told the Mirror last month: "The Stones potentially headlining Hyde Park this summer as part of a tour is exciting enough. But the fact that Macca could be playing the same evening just shows what an exciting summer of music awaits. The fact that both the Stones and Macca are going strong after all these years is really something special."
The Beatles and the Stones have had a healthy rivalry for the last 60 years.
Just last year even, Macca risked the wrath of Stones fans by calling them a "blues covers band" and saying that the Beatles' net was "cast a bit wider than theirs".
Jagger responded on stage in Los Angeles, making a joke about the comment.
Pointing out famous people in the audience, he said: "Megan Fox is here, she’s lovely. Leonardo DiCaprio. Lady Gaga. Kirk Douglas. Paul McCartney is here, he’s going to join us in a blues cover later."
Macca had previously described the long-running rivalry between the two groups as "very friendly".
In the Beatles Anthology, he said: "We’d be hanging out with the Stones, working on their sessions; it was a very friendly scene. There must have been a bit of competition because that’s only natural, but it was very friendly.
"We used to say, ‘Have you got one coming out?’ and if they had we’d say, ‘Well, hold it for a couple of weeks, because we’ve got one.’ It made sense, really, to avoid each other’s releases."
