Stones rock the Garden

The Rolling Stones proved they still have what it takes to bring down the house Wednesday, playing to an almost-sold-out crowd of 12,101 in their first of this week’s two shows at TD Garden. The band is celebrating 50 years together on its “50 & Counting Tour” and will play a second show Friday at 8 p.m.
