In less than a month fans of the Rolling Stones will be getting plenty of satisfaction as a new exhibition will be opening up all about the rock band.
Unzipped will open on June 11 at Expo Live! at Portage Place and will feature more than $40 million worth of memorabilia from the Rolling Stones.
The show will include wardrobe sets, stage setups, a studio set, the Stones' original apartment and even the guitar played by Keith Richards.

"If you are a music fan, there's nothing better than to see the history of the Rolling Stones here in front of your very eyes," said Kevin Donnelly, the senior vice president of True North Sports and Entertainment.
Donnelly said the set up for the exhibition is quite the undertaking, noting they have already been working for a month and still have a lot more work to do before opening day.
"It is remarkable. Not only to see it unfold, but to see what is in these cases. To see the Rolling Stones' history open up and transform and become a live active display right before our eyes."
