If you are not happy with the ticket prices for the Rolling Stones shows this year, then please feel free to use this thread. And this one only. There is no point in spreading comments about ticket prices randomly across this board. It is one separate discussion. Here. Thanks!
PS. Same with SET LIST complaints. They will go here too.

I have no idea why the prices are this high. But i guess it's because they only do six gigs. I hope if they continue to tour in 2013 the tickets will be more reasonable.

Hey they are multi millionaires at our expense, they don't need to recoup the money for putting on these shows - by the way are these shows not meant to be a celebration with their fans who over the last 50 years have elevated them to the status they enjoy today?. These shows should have been for the real fans.Show your collection get in the gig, IT'S ONLY ROCK'N'ROLL BUT I DON'T LIKE IT

The 50 stage cannot cost more than the ABB stage. And they don't have to transport it all over the world either. Jagger's lying if he says that. It's greed, pure and simple. Problem is they're so damn good, and I'd shell out the cash if I had it. It's not easy being a sucker for The Rolling Stones.

No one is forcing you to go,?? - that is quite a throwaway line - There are loads of people on this board who would have loved to have gone to at least one show - let alone two, whilst I don't doubt your integrity -in fact love your loyallty - and no doubt in 30 yrs time you can say 'I WAS THERE' - But please don't be patronising to those who wanted to be there, but could not afford- That is what was forcing people not to go!!

What's interesting is that people here still think they do it for the fans and they don't. They do it for the money. Enough said.

'They Do it For the Fans' ? - could you please show me a post where the fans think and thank the Stones for doing it for them. - 'They Do it For The Money' - well of course they will as long as people pay the price - enough said!!~

Haha, where have you been? All this endless whining about ticketprices, they should do a free concert bla bla bla. They don't care about the fans bla bla bla. Many people here refuse to believe they do it for the money.
