Wellington - Noise control officers were sent to Auckland's Western Springs stadium during the Rolling Stones' first concert in New Zealand after complaints from nearby residents, it was reported on Monday.
Neighbours said the Stones' performance on Sunday night was the loudest event they had ever heard at the stadium, a regular venue for speedway as well as pop concerts, the New Zealand Herald reported.
Several callers complained to talkback radio stations with one claiming his house was shaking, the paper said.
The noise did not worry 59-year-old grandmother Faye Ngatauau, a self-confessed rocker, who told the paper, 'If I could do what they do at their age, I would be getting as much sex, drugs and rock'n'roll as I possibly could.'
The Rolling Stones will play one other concert in New Zealand, in Wellington on Tuesday night.
