Did Twickenham sell out?

All this crap that's been in the press. And then I hear the first show sold out. And that the second one is 99.9% sold out.

So what's the truth?

If they did sell these shows out I think the press owes the Stones an apology.

Packed to the roof. And don't believe the rubbish in the Daily Mail about the audience being all pensioners - there were all ages and lots and lots of 20 somethings.

there was quite an eclectic mix, where i was located-

to my left were two teenager boys, grooving away,
enjoying a 'jazz' cigarette,
(much to the disgust of a middle-aged couple behind them)
and infront were two 'goth' teenage girls, dancing and having a good time.

The first that is meeting you as you walk out of the station on your way to the show is a ton of scalpers - touts - buying, not selling. A clear sign of a sell-out for sure. It was packed. And such a brilliant version of Sway!

Got in after the frist 4 songs and hey to the left of the stage, the seats, there were still many available, my friends and I just took a seat and enjoyed the rest of the concert, well, standing, of course.

But I'd say it was about 98% sold out, didn't see many gaps when I was looking around and the FOS section a few meters away from me looked packed.
Many young people there too and old ones BUT have not seen many kids around, sad...they will keep listening to bands like ... (not mentioning any names at this point, don't want to offend anyone!).

Anyway, see you on tuesday, tomorrow, and hope some of you people are at the Stones convention today, lots of records, cds, memorabilia etc there! (And something called the Ali Zayeri Stones museum, whatever that is, not sure.

Bye, T.

It was packed, and f'ing GREAT.
They delivered big time.
It was fun amongst the Shidoobees in the rain, a nice crowd.
Hope you all enjoy Tuesday, Don Valley next for me, can't wait for the next shot.

Oily.

Sure there are empty seats behind the spotlight towers but they are never on sale.
