Following Watt’s withdrawal from the tour, drummer Steve Jordan, a longtime associate of Stones guitarist Keith Richards had filling in for the tour.

However, Rolling Stones’ final public appearance with Watts on drums was a broadcast in April 2020 which was more of a filmed appearance for the “One World: Together at Home”, for which a typically contented-looking Watts

played “air drums” to a pre-recorded track on a fresh version of ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want.’ In his last moments, Watts was with his wife and daughter Serafina.
