Tell Me :
Talk
My theory exactly. However, I do think a few real fans will be allowed in this show.
I hope so to. Dance with the one who brung ya.
When I was reminded what a gorilla in the human world really is, and then saw the prices they are charging, then the whole gorilla art work thing made sense... and it hurt my heart a little bit... andAtlas shrugged the rich 1%ers, aboard their private jets, just laughed.
N'aurais tu pas posté la même chose sur twitter ? :-)
Gorilla is an old marketing term. They said .... If one is trying to get clients, and they showed how the "top 10% of clients"( the gorillas) generate 90% of the profit... then they ask "why not go only market to the "gorillas"". It was called gorilla marketing. They said.... you wont land as many clients, but the gorillas you do land will more than make up for the time wasting bottom 90% of the market.
I left that business... I am not a profit whore.
Its a private gig as far as I know, so, like the Deutsche Bank gig in 2007, presumably that means absolutely no access for the public.
However, I know of one regular poster here who managed to get an invite.
Did some fans see them come in? Are there any signs on Mogador saying the Stones are playing tonight?
Talk about your favorite band.

It will interesting to see if any regular fans are allowed in or if it is only invited, private party, 1%er gotillas. If it is only the 1%er gorrilas, then I will wonder if this gig was booked first..... and last weeks gig was quickly set up to simply "head off at the pass" any critics who would probably pound on the band for catering only to the 1%er gorillas of the world.
Good luck to anyone over there... hope you get in to see the show.

Yeah that was what the Liberation article said this morning, not sure there's a link in this thread or elsewhere. The Trabendo boss said they (Encore I assume since they produced the show) scouted concert places 10 days before the gig happened, i.e. around 15/10 and the Mogador show info leaked on the 19th I think so you can draw your own conclusions...Having said that I don't think anyone has a problem with the fact they played at the Trabendo, regardless of the reasons ;-)

I feel you Max, I suspect a lot of others do as well. Never thought of the gorilla thing in that way though. But I do see your point. I always say I'll do it until it's not fun anymore, and it's getting kind of close. At first I wasn't going to London but now I am with hopes of finding a decent ticket at a decent price. If it doesn't happen I'll enjoy some beers and a short holiday instead.

The problem is that it's the friggin' heart of Paris, Trabendo was in the middle of nowhere...
So there's no organized queue then? No gates? Pics would be great if you can!

Une 10aine de personne devant les backstage.
2 queues aux extrémités de la rue du théâtre ou les gens avec invit peuvent passer. Des gens en face du theatre qui attendent pour rien je pense et quelques personnes qui attentent sans place à une des deux queues.

Translation of Rsylvain's post:
About 10 fans are front of the backstage.
There are 2 queues in the extremities of the Theatre's street, where the people (with invitation) can go through.
Some fans are waiting front of the Theatre and are waiting for nothing I think and some fans are waiting in the queue without ticket.

Sounds messy indeed, reminds me of Olympia 1995, except that there no scalpers at least.

That's a change from Trebando when they arrived a few minutes before the show but there might have been concerns tonight that access would be hard in that busy part of Paris.Quote

Yeah I think that was specified on the invitations, it was a bit more of a surprise on Thursday but you could check in your bag fortunately.
What's the security like? Any of the Stones' crew in view?
