$85 tickets for the May 15th show. [www.ticketmaster.com]

Thanks for that Harpo!
Bought my pair the day they went on sale for my wife and I, but forwarded the link to my sister who was able to get a pair for her and her husband just now.
Now we are one big happy family!

Curious to know where these seats came from....
Could they be from people who bought multiple pairs and had to cancel their 2nd or 3rd orders (or had their orders cancelled)?
Or could they be unsold regular tickets and VIP packages?

Anyways, THANKS again..I'm headed back to the Echoplex show thread.

Harpo, how did you find that link for the Anaheim 85 dollar tickets? Did it reappear on the Stones site or did you have the original link bookmarked which you checked periodically? I'm looking for Toronto tickets that may reappear but I don't know where to check. The $85 ticket link on rollingstones.com seems to always be dead.

Toronto May 25th link

Toronto June 6th link
www.ticketmaster.ca/event/10004A81FCD2987C?did=rscom2013

Good Luck! I'm hoping they keep dropping 85 dollar tickets as we get closer to these shows!

This coming Friday we will all find out whether the tickets are a decent gamble. For many of us it would be the only way we would consider attending a show on this tour. HOWEVER...



If 996 of the 1000 tickets end up being the absolute worst seats in the house, as displayed in this seating chart, I will likely return both of my pairs and cancel our hotel room in Chicago.

If anyone grabbed tickets for the Staples Center show, and was able to see the map before today, please shed some insight. Have those pink sections always been on the map or was the top deck all red and blue prior to the $85 tickets being released?

bye bye johnny
Might want to inquire with axs.com or the Staples Center box office.

Did you receive a reply from Staples/axs.com confirming that those sections are the designated location of the $85 tickets?

Personally, I am very grateful for the opportunity to have purchased tickets for $85 and be in the building, wherever that may be - really does not matter - I get to experience The Rolling Stones again and have been sky high since I bought tickets.

Here's a form to register for $85 ticket drops. Go get 'em!!

They received that message because they paid USING THE SAME CREDIT CARD and BILLING ADDRESS, you need multiple accounts on Ticketmaster or Change the credit card and billing address. I made this mistake buying Mumford and Sons Tickets which I'm glad I did because I didn't make it getting Stones seats, HA!

Like maybe night of a show, Johnny will reading be here, and someone with an extra ticket will say... HEY JOHNNY WANT A FREE EXTRA TICKET?, THEN COME ON DOWN..... or something like that.

I saw that happen.... it really did. It was a FSM (Fkg Stones Miracle).

Or maybe he will just feel good that he helped out some people, helped make it all better, and the reward is knowing he did that... or something

Just following the Stones on Twitter, is all.

Could be a very good sign that availability will be determined once production has been loaded in. "Productions changes" are often cited when great floor and lower level seats are released day of show.

Its a fancy word to say they had more space left over after putting the stage and seats and final stage width and curtains not covering areas and speakers not blocking views, and all of a sudden they say, HEY we can add more seats here....


but really I think they are going to be happy to start dumping tickets at $85.00 versus so many going unsold.

Production changes, AKA they can't find enough suckers to buy the expensive tickets.

Oh, Hallelujah! Thank you, Stones.

Just wish there'd be a little more foreknowledge than "day of" show. Travel is involved!

Yes, that's exactly why I cannot take advantage of it, there's the minor detail of the Atlantic Ocean between me and Philadelphia !!

As you say it's minor detail, so don't bother just go and don't forget if you don't get the 85$ deal there will be scalpers trying to get rid of their tickets just before the show.

I knew they would have $85 tix drops when I first saw the high prices of tix.

They don't want the arena's to be 50-80% full,so sell 'em at $85 nearer the date,to have a full arena.

Great for the fans who can make the gigs.

Well I've registered, just for a laugh. So I might just as well use up some hated British Airways Air Miles and go and hang out near the venue in Philly on the 18th & 21st of June and see what's on offer. And if I don't score an $85 pit ticket, then I'll just amuse myself by spending the rest of the evening hanging out in the immediate vicinity and possibly getting myself arrested for making inappropriate sexual advances towards scalpers, policemen, women, and men in drag ......... in fact pretty much whomsoever I happen to run into !!

They'll give you a ticket before you mae inappropriate sexual advances otherwise I might have to visit you in Folsom which is not my cup ot tea and as far as I know the water is dirty and looks like a cup of tea

It can not be mentioned enough, it is the hottest news you will find here.

More $85.00 tickets coming

If the Stones are playing in your town there is no excuse to skip them.

Rep at Staples Center box office this AM parroted the party line, saying $85 tickets are "spread around the arena".

Those who got shut out in the initial on-sale might want to seriously consider the second chance offer announced yesterday.
