I hope the Stones apply this sort of criteria for their future audiences.
It might keep out the rock show's equivalent of the rif-raff, such as Z-list celebrities, bimbos with their cellphones, box tickers who just want to see these old guys once before they drop dead and the idiots who are there on a corporate junket and who spend the evening yakking to whoever's in the next seat in between countless trips to the bar during the numerous songs they dont recognise.

This test by now is an exam I would not pass, but if I applied for a British passport I would get me some information and learn it. I would not like to live in a country without knowing anything about its culture.

Just ask them to name the drummer and you probably lose 5% of the audience before you've started

I think you're being cautious with that estimate, to be honest.
Remember how the Dead used to have zones of the stadiums roped off for tapers?
The Stones should have something similar for non-fans. Well, I suppose they do already - as we all know to our cost - but in this case it should be the shittiest seats, with the worst sightlines and where the sound is at it's most muffled.
They probably wouldn't notice or care as long as there were a few peanuts, bottled water and souvenir laminates provided to make them feel 'special'.
