Lol. Can't imagine Bill isn't involved in some way. I sure hope so in any case.

No mention of Bill, huh? He's the real archive Stone, right? Maybe they'll piss him off and he'll assemble a competing exhibit. "Here's one of Keith's old spoons...."

I'm excited about any exhibition of Stones "stuff."
But...is this for real?
Sorry if anyone here is working on the effort. But from what's apparent at this links and clicking around (or attempting to--it's quite klugy), doesn't the site and exhibition--in concept and preliminary interaction and visual design--seem, well...a little...trashy? as in track-suit-bum-crack-big-stomach-showing-wore-my-slippers-to-Walmart-hair-pulling-in-the-shampoo-aisle trashy? And also very 2006. Not to mention about a half micron deep.
If someone from Rolling Stones Corp would like a hand with this - toward creating a super compelling, immersive, interactive, multiplemedia transplatform experience that also has even a smidge of substance, dignity, and credibility, please contact me.
The Stones deserve better.
I'm surprised Charlotte Watts would have allowed things to get this far.
What's here is, in now way, reflective of men of wealth and taste
Love that something is happening, but let's do much better. It could be great!
I know some relevant exhibition models that could be adapted and...Stones have all the money in the world to do something innovative and, yes, fun, but not vulgar and dumm--worthy of the Stones while they're still here, as well as worthy in terms of legacy, this exhibition not being remembered as silly clownishness.
Sorry to be blunt -- but it needs to be said now before design/development goes too far.

I trust you, swiss.
Maybe you can tweet this to @rollingstones or Charlotte? (I can do it for you if you don't have a account)
Fastest way to get in touch with them.
Send some examples from your own work.
Sometimes the brutals have the whole world!

They should put Charlotte watts in charge of Internet marketing
I see her as potential future CEO of Rolling Stones Inc in the 2025 time frame she should be groomed now

At present you can only buy a VIP ticket on the presale if you live in Esssex!!!!
The payment page is not working correctly. You need to enter County/Region to have your payment processed - but the only option is Essex.
Hope they sort this mess out soon. Anyone know how to contact them?

Presale is more expensive?
According to the Ticket Info page a ticket is £19 on weekdays.
I checked for May 2 (a monday), and the ticket price is £24.

Yep - Essex was the only option in the drop-down menu and the purchase could not be completed without specifying that option. DOH... WTF?! I just assume and hope that the postcode overrides the county when it comes to delivery...
