Well I broke down and pulled the $831 trigger. Just now a single in section 6 row 7 popped up. Took a hit lol but had to buy it! So pumped!!!

Congradulations on the recent growth of your balls, Mine are currently hidden away like a scared Turtle and are horrified of the 831 trigger.

Have a great time.

Would be great if someone going tonight could upload pics from inside using Picasa or Photobucket like I did on the 25th and we can grab the pics and post them here as they come along. It was a breeze to do with my iPhone 4S ! Thanks in advance !

I love how bv made iPhone a bad word.

Edit: Cheapest Pit on Stubhub is $1144 (for 1). I'm in for this show but kind of bummed because what looked like a side view (section 105) when I made the purchase became "Rear View" when I got the ticket. It most certainly did not say that when I bought it (I still have the receipt). Good luck.

I am in same boat (Sec 4) as you.....definitely did not say rear view on ticket master when I bought the ticket. Very much scam-like in that you buy one thing and they send you something else. At least on Stubhub they require these things to be listed before you make your purchase decision. Did not check my ticket until this morning (it came in mail just a week ago while i was away on a trip)....Don't know what exactly to do. Just another way to feel ripped off by ticketmaster (like the ~$70 of fees they extract on top of facevalue). I am just hoping the seat is not as bad as it looks on ticket. Anybody from the London shows have a sense how bad the similar seats in London were? From the diagram (which probably cannot be relied on at all, it looks like the side.

BV, do we have an official meeting place before the show?

I sent an email to Ticketmaster, complaining about the apparent bait and switch but received no reply. I guess they figure $500 is a bargain. I wasn't expecting a full-on view of the screen and stage but didn't expect "rear view" either. We're still pretty close so I'm just going to roll with it. Good luck.

A sad video while we wait...ting ting...I am wait, ting ting...oh yeah oh yeah

Fixed that "bad word" problem, so anyone game for it?

Another ticket drop announced on Facebook. Still no cheap seats...

I think I'm out for tonight - there's a family event that I really shouldn't duck out of early, anyway. Hope to see some of you before Newark on Thursday!

And to all that are going or trying to score for tonight - GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!

Jesus Christ, it can't be that expensive???

WOW.

Enjoy everybody going tonight.

Looks like I am heading to arena to take my chances, like I said b4, just be very cognizant when buying outside the arena.

In 1786, Thomas Jefferson, while in Paris, wrote a letter to his close friend Maria Cosway called "Head and Heart" describing his conflict between the two.

For me, my heart says I would love to attend, but my head tells me $831 is crazy. Common sense wins. But to each his own. Enjoy your evening.

have fun at the show tonite everyone

Go Ronnie Go

So many shows in Stones history and now we count : 3rd show. near the final one

So enjoy really each minute.

"we know it's a bit late but we hope you don't mind if we stay"

I am heading to Brooklyn right now!!!! I can't beleive I am going!!!!

Hello from chilly Rome to all the concert goers - we will be waiting behind our laptop screens, tucked up in bed, for you to send updates, pics and videos.

I have just arrived from Philly and am psyched. My last show was Atlantic City 2006.

Any predictions on show time? It's not like we have to worry about a curfew. 8:30 maybe?

So what does 8:30 mean for time in Rome?

Quote
New York City, you talk a lot, let's have a look at ya...

Look forward to getting updates! Thanks to any and all who elucidate us plebes.

Add 6 hours in Rome.

If you want a place to meet up then I would recommend this place:

Black Sheep Pub
428 Bergen Street
It is just off the 5th Ave as you walk
approx two blocks down from the Barclays Center

They were playing Gimme Shelter as I walked in just now,
so that is a good sign.
It is a real pub, almost like the Irish Joints in tempel Bar Dublin,
but they have some basic burger food too.
I will probabry have a meal at the Alchemy around the corner,
it is on 5th ave no. 56, they have a baar too,
but more food.

See you there between 5 and 6 today.

Does anyone know when will The Stones take the stage or when they did at o2?
