Those of you who scored tix for Philly, was there anything special you needed to do to bust through the "waiting for server to connect" problem? I've been waiting over an hour. Multiple windows open in browser help? Thanks!

Exact same situation with me. This sucks.

I gave up on the queue and when I tried again, was able to go right to the online ticket window.

Thanks all here, I got through thanks to the help from IORRers....... Holy cow 67.50 just unreal!!!!!!

anyone else who got $85 tix for Philly....do they all say general admission on them? or did I just become the luckiest person in the world and score $85 pits?

In my account details it says General Admission

Last round of on-sales had similar GA information, so wouldn't read too much into that. As noted on rollingstones.com:

"You will find out your seat location when you pick them up the night of the show."

In any event, congratulations. You're in the house!

yeah i figured as much. Got Friday in boston at $150 at exactly 10:03

had 9 windows on 3 computers in queue for Philly. They clicked over at 10:42. All of them at once.

I actually timed out on one order..just x'd out of that window and got the $85s in another window. I suppose if I had multiple accounts I could have had 85s about 4 times over. But I'm not like that

I'm over here in Spain at the moment and just out of interest tried Boston about half hour ago and $85 tix came up first try.
I realy hope the real fans on IORR,Rocks Off,Shidoobee and many others end up with great tix.
Good luck to you all out there. ><

For both LA and Anaheim shows, there' still no $85 ticket option listed on [www.rollingstones.com] , and it's 25 minutes until general tix go on sale.

Will they be added at the last minute, and was this the case for other shows (Boston, Philly, etc.)?

Just got 2 $85 tix for the 20th at the Staples. Really easy site to use. The tix also say GA PIT 5! If that turns out to be true, then I'll be over the moon! Can't wait!

To quote myself and answer my own question...YES, they were added the minute they went on sale.
Nothing like a little stress, but while getting Rolling Stones tickets, it wouldn't be the same without a little stress involved!

Was able to get $85 pairs for both Anaheim shows, as well as the 2nd Staples show!
Very easy process...

Just stop it already...

keep reading how poor the ticketing system is but i have been able to get $85 tickets for san jose/oakland and just now the 1st la show. sure, had too wait for the la shows and wonder when my time would pop up but a little patience and all is good. i am flying in from australia and cannot wait for the shows......

It is easy, but the Philly show was NOT easy. I got 2 $85 tix to the TBA announced Staples Center show around 10:14AM Pacific time.
I tried to get 2 $85 for Philly around 10:06AM EST, but the website was too slow and it ruined any chances of me getting $85 tickets to any other shows.

Unreal. But, good luck and glad to see stones fans getting the $85.

I'd keep trying philly, to my knowledge, I don't know if ANYONE has got a $85 ticket to pHILLY....

I love you people. Thanks for the good info - just got $85 tix for Anaheim (I live in Nashville but am flying out next month to see Prince at the Grove along with Stewart Copeland at the Long Beach Opera - going to be awesome to see the Stones while I'm there!)

By way of more info, my tix say "Section: VOUCH; Price Level 5".

I had already bought a $450 side-stage ticket before I found this link, don't know if I'll try to re-sell that one; think I'll see where folks are winding up with the $85 specials before I make a decision. Have a couple friends in SoCal, maybe I'll just gift somebody.

Thanks again.

Flying in from Australia..Step right up and win some crap!!!

I finally got thru the $85 Philly queue at about 10:55 and got a pair for 6/21. Have another friend who got thru the queue about 20 min later--initially said there was nothing available but she kept trying for several minutes and got a pair that popped up. I think it's still worth trying. The Chicago shows had pairs coming up late in the day. BTW, my tickets also say GA, but I'm sure that's just a placeholder. My Chi tix also say GA. I"m assuming that most of these $85 tix are up top, with a few lucky people getting good seats.

we'll see. may just be good or may be (@^%^& awesome who knows.....

For 5/2 Staples I got the $85 seats and they say GA PIT 5.

For 5/15 Anaheim I got $85 seats that say VOUCH GA 3.

For 5/18 Anaheim I got $85 seats that say VOUCH GA 2.

So, how do we find out exactly where these sections are located? Would be interesting to see if the tix are any good or not. All these areas sound like standing room only areas...we shall see!

This is a good deal... With tax day and all that I'm in for 91 bucks. I'm a lifelong fan and got treated like one. I'm really, really happy and I don't need to waste any more time on struggling for a seat. That's twice I've been hooked up, went to Brooklyn show thanks to RS insider....

Easy. Show up at the venue and pick up your tickets from the will call booth and look at them. THAT'S THE ONLY WAY TO FIND OUT.

See DoomandGloom, I told you it would all work out. I got the $85 ticket deal for both nights, so I am very happy too. Do you still need hand holding on Amtrak, or do you think you can manage it on your own?

See you there!

Congratulations to all of you who succeeded

I'm cool I have another crazy Stones fan to travel with but I'm looking forward to seeing IORR people at a local pub or Cheese Steak Stand. A group picture of posters attending would be cool. I'm going on the 18th, I have to play music myself on the weekends, fighting hard to resist Boston but had no luck there for cheapies after trying only a couple of times. For now I'm good with one show unless they play New York, I hope that everyone that wants to go gets to go. I have a feeling the new ground they have yet to pave musically will begin with this unprecedented respect the group and their fans have for one another. Trying to cut out the scalpers could not have been an easy move with so many different venues.

BTW, so far I don't remember reading of anyone getting anything aside from GA tickets. GA sounds like pit tickets, but like others have said, it is very unlikely that all of us are in the pit.

i dont want to get anyones hopes up but i think those tickets that say "pit" get you in the toungue pit.

there is no way they have enough people to just escort everyone to random seats that didnt sell.

its at least 1000 people you would have to walk to random seats,i'll bet they have a section for each group.i have a friend who has a pair that says"gimme shelter tickets" on the $85s.the pair i threw back for oakland said "pit" on them and to me "gimme shelter" looks alot more like "upper level" or anywhere inside the door than one that says "ga pit" but i guess all we can do is wait and see.

Are all $85 tickets held at WILL CALL or do they mail out tix? I had no luck at all, just need one $85 ticket for either Boston show. Thanks.

all the $85 tickets are will call.

they just have different things written on the page when you order them and the dropdown menus say different things.its a little confusing i know,we're just left guessing about most of it but the will call thing-thats for sure.

Yes, do keep trying mickschix...and thank you Max for your generous good wishes toward all of us who managed to get the fan ticket deal. I hope it works out for you somehow and you get to go to the show. You deserve it!

My wife got $85 tickets for Staples Center very easily this morning. Confirmation message states "GA PIT."
