The Rolling Stones [ tickets ] have announced they'll play gigs at New York City's Beacon Theatre on Oct. 29 and 31.

Billboard has recomputed its weekly Billboard 200 album chart because a "system failure at a significant chain made it impossible for data from that company's stores to be included when Nielsen SoundScan processed the sales charts that were released Sept. 29 on Billboard.com and Billboard.biz," according to a billboard.com report.

The Top 6 albums on the chart remain the same: Justin Timberlake's "FutureSex LoveSounds," Clay Aiken's "A Thousand Different Ways," Fergie's "The Dutchess," Kenny Chesney's "Live: Live Those Songs Again," John Mayer's "Continuum" and Beyonce's "B'Day."

There reportedly will be some changes to lower positions on the chart, which Billboard plans to update once the problem is sorted out.
