I'm going to assume that seats that are "only" $75 are behind the stage.

There are no $75 tickets. I don't think they're selling any seats behind the stage, either.

I'm going to assume that seats that are "only" $75 are behind the stage. Maybe the highest rows of the arena, but close to the stage if they're not all behind the stage. And with service charges, they're over $100. I would like to see Mick Taylor, but they're ripping people off. They weren't very good the last couple of times I saw them some years ago, and I assume they're not as good now, Mick Taylor or no Mick Taylor. Plus, as long as Ron Wood is in the band, you're stuck having to hear him.

Rolling Stones To Skip the South on U.S. Tour?
Posted by Adam Gold on Wed, Apr 3, 2013 at 4:46 PM
Aside from, you know, blues music, what has the American South ever given The Rolling Stones?
Apparently, England’s Oldest Hitmakers don’t think Virginia and surrounding below-Mason-Dixon-Line locales are so sweet after all, as the band’s long-awaited 50 and Counting Tour itinerary — announced this morning — includes not a single Southern date; not even Texas or Florida (which arguably don’t even count anyway). You’d think the band would at least light up Atlanta on this nine-date trek, which kicks off next month at L.A.’s Staples Center. No dice.
At press time, Chicago (on May 28) is the closest Rolling Stones road-trip destination for General Lee drivers. Even Canada — a country that once threatened to incarcerate Keith Richards — is getting a 2013 Stones show.
What gives?
Certainly it takes the widespread perennial adulation of millions to persist as rock ’n’ roll’s biggest band for five decades and counting, and there are certainly a lot of “people” in the South, to be sure. But as anyone aware of the Stone’s eye-watteringly, one-percenter-exclusive ticket prices (or anyone who’s ever seen the eye-openingly embarrassing 2001 VH1 documentary Being Mick, or watched the tour-announcement promo clip above) can attest, Mick Jagger is anything but a man of the people. But it’s a band’s body of work that counts. And few bands artistically owe a greater debt of gratitude to the South than The Rolling Stones, who’ve built a musical dynasty recasting Southern legends from Robert Johnson to Gram Parsons in their own swaggering image.
If recent reports of the band plotting 19 U.S. dates are true, that leaves a potential 10 dates in cities still to be announced. Let’s cross our fingers and hope that at least one of them lands the band somewhere in the region before they completely fossilize.

In a perfect world they'd drop in to jam with George and Zigaboo at the Howlin' Wolf, then head over to the Maple Leaf afterwards to lay down some licks with Wolfman Washington.
Yeah, what gives. It's not like Toronto is a major market city or anything. Jack ass.Quote

I am not gonna pay for Jaggers ex-wives, ronnies ex-wives etc.
Just Gonna wait for the Ziggodome Amsterdam.
Thats gonna be expensive as well, but....in my own country.
jeroen
you really think that had they married once and stayed married the tix would be more in the $50-$75 range? i hadn't really considered that possbility, but it makes sense.
I wonder if they would consider maybe allow the poorer fans to just pay to see the show on a song for song basis.
Start Me Up - $20
Get Off of My Cloud - $35 (hey, it was hard and costly to learn that one again!)
"the evening ballad" - $45 (it's hard when you have to tone it down for just one song!)
Midnight Ramber with MT - $150 (sorry, but some folks are paying for a whole show just to see this one moment)
Warhorse Parade - $100 (package deal of the night!)
How much for Band Intros???
Never mind that, how much for Love Train?
I took it last year. I had a great time. Also an empty wallet, but it was worth it.
If there is a 2nd Hyde Park I'll go again, and I'll pay up again.
What if Ziggodome never happens?
i am not gonna spend about 900 euros for 2 days London and one Stones concert.
Simply because i dont have a lot of money and cant afford to go. And..i think the prices are outrageous.
Dont het me wrong, i love the Stones. Been a fan since 1973 and seen them many times. But this is the limit.
@#$%& them, i cant afford it.
Jeroen
it's okay to go ahead and hate the stones; everybody's doing it.
