Tell Me :
Talk
Or if you want to save even more, take the subway from the airport. Should be around 7 yuan...
They will not cancel it. 13 on Fire???!!! I think next time they'll think twice about what to name the tour...
My cheap hostel playing always Stones since I checked in with Stones T-shirt.
There is even a reception girl who went to the show last night.
OK. Now I am checking out and heading to Singapore!
It was NOT a rumour. It was speculation. The word 'rumour' never even accord to me until you mentioned it. >

Then I probably wasn't talking to you. Please read the whole thread. Grrrrr!
I'm back in my hotel as my flight to Singapore is only after 23:00. They are still playing Stones in the bar and nothing else! The hotel is going to get a good review from me.
Talk about your favorite band.

It took 12 hours to get from Macau to Shanghai total travel time, even if it is just 3 hours net flying, but bus, ferry, changing flights and taxi etc takes time.
Arriving at Shanghai airport I was offered taxi by "official" people in uniform. It was 500 Yuan and I said I wanted to take the airport train Maglev. They said it was wrong direction and waste of money. Well I wanted to take it, great experience. At 50 Yuan only, it took some 7 minutes and speed 300 km/h, then hordes of un-licenced taxi offers, but I went for the official metered stand, it took some 20 minutes and cost some 35 Yan. So if an offer is very good then don't trust it, I saved 400+ by taking care of myself and not taking the first and not so good offer.
Shanghai is great they say, but beware of those who want a part of your money. And the Maglev is highly recommended, simply because it is so unique.

No private show...there will be two of us.
Seriously, tho, have they ever cancelled a show because tickets didn't sell?
Lots of times since 1990. Mostly in Europe. In some cases, theyve announced it was for 'logistical' reasons though to save face. Other times when shows had to be rearranged due to illness, they pulled slower selling dates to make room for them.

Hello from Shanghai,
this Rolling Stones -lover has been living here 1,5 years now. I'm so happy that they will play here tonight! This is my third Rolling Stones -show. I was in Helsinki 2003 & 2007.
The weather today is awful. It's raining cats and dogs and you can't see anything.
I don't believe the show will be canceled BUT couple of months ago Phantom of the Opera at the Shanghai opera was canceled because it was raining so heavily -> they had problems with the electricity. Everything is possible in China…
But I'm sure everything is ok today at Mercedes Benz Arena.

Please stop spreading rumours about a possible cancellation. The Stones are in town, the stage is set up, everything is fine.

They're playing Stones music in the breakfast room in my hotel on Nanjing Rd. How cool is that after this fantastic Shanghai night!
