The scalpers will have plenty of high priced tickets that will burn in their pockets. It happens on every tour.

It is a rumour until it has been officially confirmed. Please do not pay for expensive travel until it is confirmed. But this is a good reason for holding back on your travel plans. There has been a large gap beetween the UK and US dates.
Fast selling tickets?? please.... there are thousands of tickets available for all 4 shows, IMO ,The Stones are in cahoots with the scalpers...Bunch of greedy @#$%&Quote

So far I have only heard about 3 shows in the US and 2 shows in Europe (large ones) and an undefined number of smaller shows. Once there was talks about Olympia but that makes you sleep unsafe at nights.

Is 11/27 still open at the O2. that date would seem to make a lot of sense. No problem moving stages in and out in 24 hours. We saw that the last time they were at the O2, when Prince had concerts going as well.

This is what makes me talk of this show a bit unlikely, to be honest.
Tickets are plentiful for all four arena shows. If more are added (and at short notice), are people going to be stupid enough to panic buy again, knowing they're going to be available at close to face value in their THOUSANDS around the dates of the gigs?
Barclays and the Prudential were both sounded out for shows as we know and, as has been reported, they chose the Newark venue for contractual reasons relating to the PPV. One venue was probably on 'standby' as an alternative to the other. It could still happen of course, but surely by now most would-be ticket buyers are aware that the 'sold out in a few minutes' hype is something of a myth.
Add in the 'Sandy' factor to the equation and its probably likely that most would be ticket buyers will have more important things to deal with in the coming weeks.

And not only because of that the third show is a not so serious option at this moment.
The rumour around the Trabendo gig was not so huge as expected: sold out yes, but not with a couple of thousand people on the streets (and just 30 people or so at the Mogador trying to get in...).
If you compare that to earlier club shows in Europe like Brixton, Olympia or Paradiso this one was not the succes they thought it would be from a pr point of view .
Together with the tickets still around for the arena shows that lowers expectations of what can possibly be sold for other shows in the future, even for 2013: what to do with stadium shows in Europe if we don't want to travel a lot (for lots of reasons)? Can we sell two shows in Stade de France for 90.000 people? Or in the Amsterdam Arena? Wembley? With these prices? With this economic situation? With this interest for the Stones for these 4 shows...?
A lot of people are breaking their heads now about how to attack these questions.
