Any info on a ticket limit (that is how many tickets you'll be able to purchase at one time) during the presale? I'm guessing 4 or 6. But would like to know for sure as we have 5 who'll be attempting to get tickets.

When do we think the second show will be? Thursday?

I may try to go..it would be cool to take my kids who are 9 and 12 and fans. I have only seen Keith Ron and Mick T solo....

I live in Chicago. Come visit!

Main Floor: $600
100 level: $600
200 level: $600
300 level: $150, $250

I realize this may be the last time to the see the Stones, but 150-250 to sit in the nose bleeds at the United Center? WOW. I paid 80ish to sit in the same seats to see Roger Waters perform the Wall Sry guys, not going to happen.

the last word on these prices...

Anyone think about getting a group (20+) together to rent a suite? If the suite prices aren't jacked for this, that would be a cheaper option. Anyone local there know?

No $350/$450/????? Just $600 or we're in the top deck with bad sound??

Guys, this is bad.

I had hoped they'd pick Soldier Field, some huge venue, and have a wide spectrum of prices. No dice.

This is the greediest tour of all time.

So much for Keith's earthy, "man of the people" persona

If the rumored Chicago prices are correct I don't see them adding a 2nd show. I'm not sure the market will handle 2 shows of mostly $600 nosebleed seats. Adding a show in St. Louis or Denver makes more sense.

I will stay home because of the venue and the prices. I always hoped the Stones would change how they do things on tour since 1989 but no dice. I guess 1994 will have to be my only show. Even then the price I paid for lousy seats was very much not worth it.

Presale this morning... $600-$3000. My friend was horrified. She was going to buy tickets for all of us if there were good options...

It would be interesting how the shows would sell in a stadium setting. I'm not talking about the Steel Wheel's or ABB stage, but something like the 81 or 78 tour.

Anyone have the special offer code?

A second date has been added for May 31!

Just got pit tkt may 30. $1500

It's the first six digits of your Citi card number.

Got an email from AEG Live AllAccess saying there is a 3rd Chicago show on June 3.

I just had tickets for the two shows of Chicago on ticketmaster.
Presale exactly like Newark, a little bit less expensive.
Tongue Pit Package.
Weird no? They didn't do any communication about this pre-sale.
I'm so happy by the way. But I have to work a lot now to pay!!
