SAO PAULO, Brazil, (Reuters) -- Roll over, bossa nova. The Rolling Stones are taking over Rio de Janeiro's famed Copacabana Beach next Saturday for what promises to be a historic rock 'n' roll extravaganza.
Organizers expect more than 1 million people to fill the beach area for the free concert by the aging but still agile rockers -- one of the biggest crowds ever for a rock show.
A huge stage is being constructed on the sand opposite the elegant Copacabana Palace Hotel where the band will stay.
