I think it would be fascinating if someone made a documentary of the story of the $85 tickets and who sat where in each city they were available...with a segment on extra fees on all tickets...not just the $85 ones.
The handling fees on all tickets must be a story onto itself, though. It must be the only way the promoter can break even. To me, AEG has become a very bad word. And, of course, Ticketmaster.

I agree with you there.
Saying that,Staples Centre are probably the only gigs where $85 is total price.
When the show is over on May 3rd we will hear many storys (I hope ) of fans getting pit tix and front row seats.
Hopefully we will then know how it will work.
I hope there will not be many fans getting nosebleed and not very good seats.
Although paying $85 to see The Rolling Stones live on this tour,there can't realy be any complaints wherever you are in the arena.

I e mailed TM Customer Service and found out they will not let me keep both pairs of tickets that I had got for Vegas, they are two "per household." They are going to refund me the one pair about two weeks after purchase.

That kind of sucks...but at least you'll get a refund.
And on a brighter note, it means more $85's will be put back in the pot for those who were unable to geth them the first go.

Any idea when the second go might be, or do you think they will just drop a few at a time?

yeah...well..Im gonna pretend I didnt read that plexi post and hope for the best. I will beg and plead ignorance if they try and take the other pair I paid for. I may end up with 2 very disapointed people.

The reply timbernardis received indicated his order will be cancelled prior to the show date, so the Will Call ploy seems likely to fail.
TicketMaster's cancellation policy states "without notice to you", so those with more than one order should keep check on their TicketMaster accounts.

Dumb question, but it has to be two per household per show, right? I have two $85 tickets for the two shows in Philadelphia and I have been assuming that's fine, but you guys are making me nervous...

I'm thinking about doing something that's either smart or stupid, I can't decide which...
Bought one of the $500 tix before I got a pair of $85s. Think I'll just go in and see which seat is best and go for that one! I have a couple of friends I may haul along and just tell them the seats are on me, but I get the best one and they may not get to sit together
I've never seen the Stones before, coming from Nashville and I almost don't want to be in the pit, since I'm short and can never see in a GA crowd. What would *you* do?

@latebloomer - There is no limit on how many shows you can attend at that price. You could do the $85 tickets to every gig on the tour. Would still be cheaper than a single pit ticket!
