On June 29th 2001 Rod Stewart took the stage at Philips Arena for the first time! As a part of his Forever Young tour Philips Arena was one of many stops on the North American tour. At the time, Rod Stewart was in his 50's but still moved around the stage singing hits such as the trio of "Handbags & Gladrags," "The First Cut is the Deepest," and "Reason to Believe," it was obvious Rod was going to stretch his set-list far and wide to please his oldest to youngest fans.
