I know you were thrilled to get IORR on the B-stage at your first show!
That my friend, is a great story.
I got hooked up all 3 shows. Brooklyn from a friend of a friend in Stones Tix Office, Boston $85 nose bleeds, Philly $85 to mezzanine upgrade, stage level on the edge of the walkway. Best view I've had since RFK, "Some Girls" Tour. Proof it's not all about the money but true fans can get a discount... Like it was stated above, I wish all European and Australian fans get their chance...

Wow!
This is some story winter; good for you. I hope your bank account will change very soon to such an amount you can make a trip to Europe!
That's too bad. "Little Queenie" was pretty common on the '97 tour.
Talk about your favorite band.

Chicago 1 & 2 and they were great gigs. I am still holding out hope that one day I will get to see them play a Chuck Berry song! Have seen them 13 times since 1997 and have yet to catch them playing a Chuck Berry tune.

Brooklyn----yup, NO MICK TAYLOR--very pissed!
Both Boston Shows---June 2013
Very impressed with these shows! I wish I had seen a few more but I was unemployed at the time. Even though MT was not in Brooklyn, the show was tight and high energy...excellent!

Still hoping to possibly catch one show across the pond this year, who knows?
Glad I saw all that I did, and yet, I hear from you all that they're playing even
better in 2014!
Oh, Drake, I got lucky in 2012 with CB's "Around and Around", very exciting.

HP2
and
... had a couple of O2 Nov. 29th tickets for some 120 seconds untill @#$%& ticketmaster bla-bla-bla we all know this, or that, version of this scenario.
HP2 was definitely a once in a lifetime experience (seen the Stones for the last time before that in the 1990's). I'm still pissed when I recall how I missed the O2 tickets opportunity.

2013: Unemployed, $190 in my bank account, Taylor's on tour with them, closest show was going to be a 3-hr drive to Philly. But the $85's for Philly had sold out. Had seen every Keith/Stones/barbarians US tour since 1978, was resigned to not going except I really wanted to see them with Taylor; just once.
All of the sudden, they announce the last US date: an arena 2.5 miles from my apartment. Amazingly, I get a ticket screen 15 seconds into the sale, scoring 2 $85's, emptying my bank account. No upgrades seemed to be happening for the DC show, but whatever; I'll watch from the last row and pay my respects one last time, 35 years to the exact week since I first saw them.
I head to the show to collect my upper-rafter nosebleed seats to my last Stones' show and voila! Wrist-banded for Pit action and caught the show 12 feet from the stage lip on Ronnie's side with Keith coming over in front of us more than usual. It's like they knew (or, I was using up my last bit of Stones' karma credit for all of this to happen). May the ride continue for everyone in Australia and Europe later this year!

Toronto 2 - MY chance to see Stones with Mick Taylor. CYHMK was not one of the better ones but MR was. Plus Woody was great. Best time I ever saw them since Wyman left.

Took my 12 year old, didn't think he'd ever get a chance to see them...he's still talking about it.

I caught all the East Coast US shows for the 2012/13 tour. Wish I had gone to a few more but glad I did what I did. Who knows if they will return to the US again now? All of them were very good but my favorites were Brooklyn and Philly #2.

All great in different ways. My favorite? Both Boston shows were fantastic, but getting upgraded the 2nd night with my daughter - priceless!
