We probably want to do this on some crowd funding site. One that puts the money into escrow until the event happens, or otherwise returns your money if the event does not happen. I'm 100% in, but I don't see another reasonable way of collecting so much money without a confirmation.

Seems some are "in" for $1,000, others for $3,000, others for $2,000 if it is in London or if in NY or if in LA.
So...how many are in for whatever the actual cost per person will be and are still in if they have to fly to the other side of the planet too? That seems to me a better way to take this poll rather than who will pay something to see the Stones down the street.
Is there any count on say how many will pay $3,000 per ticket even if they have to fly around the world? That would be a firmer number...

I would pledge $1000 if this would happen in NY. Not a millionaire here who can spend big dough for one evening.

Count me in if the Show is in the United States. This would be fantastic.
On a different note, did any of you pay the membership fee for the Rolling Stones back around the 2003-2007 timeframe? I remember paying the $100 per year fee for a couple years and it got me access to some really great tickets.
It seems that if the stones offered something like this again, it could maybe accomplish something similar....access to theater shows for fans and keeping the scalpers out.
But like I said, if somehow this IORR private gig effort gets traction, I'm in!

So how did that work out? Was it successful? Did the fans like it? Did The Stones like it? Why did it stop?
Who did the fans actually pay the $100 to? Was it directly to The Rolling Stones company or whatever you'd call The RS org??

Tauk dear, this isn't the right thread for a discussion of the so-called fan club but: 1] The $100 went to whomever Stones Inc. licensed the fanclub rights to; 2] the presales were a VERY mixed bag, and miles of people felt sorely ripped off; and 3] to this day no one's received one of the prizes we were promised just for signing up (a second DVD, to follow the one that was finally delivered about three years late).

To sssoul:
I'm sorry that it was such a bad deal for most people. Seems like a bad topic to even remember/think about. Thanks for your info.
