Union Threatens to Shut Down SF Rolling Stones Show Mon Nov 4, 8:51 PM ET

The Teamsters say they'll shut down two Rolling Stones concerts in San Francisco this weekend.

The union picketed Sunday and Monday at Pacific Bell Park -- where the concerts are scheduled to take place. The workers claim that the band's producer won't hire union labor to load and unload equipment.

Monday, tractor-trailers began arriving to deliver equipment.

At least three trucks turned around without making deliveries after drivers talked to Teamsters.
