Just thought I'd throw this question out there. The most I've ever paid was $75 (Canadian) to see the boys and that was for this tour. Actually, I just got my tickets yesterday for the Sept. 26 show. What can I say. I'm a nosebleed seats kind of guy cause the cost of living is so high! At least for me. lol So how about everyone else. Have you ever had to pay outrageous prices or did you get a good bargain?

For the 97 BTB tour I paid $375.00 to a broker for 3rd row that actually turned out to be 2nd row because it was right in the middle of the stage and there was no row 1 there.
It was worth every penny. They played 19TH Nervous Breakdown, Sister Morphine, and Out Of Control (it was before the B2B album release). It was one of the most amazing concert experiences I have ever had and I have seen them every US tour since 75 beginning with the 73 Europen tour. The only negative was because of the size of the stage my neck was sore for a week.

$325 x 4 from ticket agency. Was for opening night b2b . 23rd row center. Was worth it because I got a high 5 from Keith and Charlie as they went down the walkway! Also was on vh1(dressed as Mick from '69 tour)

Non-Scalper, I paid $225 for a 3rd row seat for the Who in 2002 and $200 for a 5th row seat (right in front of Neil's mike) for CSNY in 2000. Neil threw a drink at me. Twice. The punk. I still have the jacket I wore that night. It's all sticky.

i paid 300 for 10th row DC from TM 2002
Broker 300 for Charlottle 99
400 for 2 kick-ass seats on ebay for Charlottesville this year

The lowest was an outrageous price of $37.50 in 89 at Raliegh NC

$800 for Vredenburg

$510 for Shep. Bush

350 for Vegas MGM Grand in '94. At the time, I believed that would be my final chance to see them at such an intimate place. boy, was I wrong....

$200 for Stones STaples Center 10/31/02. Bought it off a scalper, it was the exact spot I wanted to be, PA level in the first third of the house.

That was a great show...front row Bstage for that one.

150 € from a scalper for the Circus Krone show in Munich 2003. 16 Licks shows (including club and arena shows) all around 100 €, every time front row - standing !!! I'm not going to pay much more on this tour !

It's really crazy to pay all that money for one ticket. I think 60 € is already too much for that. For 300 € I want to be on keith amp.

$1000 US for single ticket to Astoria and YES I AM AN IDIOT! LOL Just thought I would say that before someone else.

About $1,600 apiece for Astoria and Olympia....... expensive, but worth it. Wouldn't spend that much again though.

it beats takin it 2 the grave

very true Chippy, that was my justification, opportunity might never have come round again.

the most i've ever spent was $160 a piece for U2 this past May at the United Center. It was worth it tho. We were so close. I felt like Bono and I were making eye contact almost every song.

The most I ever paid was $700 for the Tower Theater three years ago.

HOWEVER ... if they still smoked like they did in, say, 1978, I would happily pay $2000.

Not kidding.





-- Keep on rollin'. Keep on. Keep on. Keep on. --

come on....we all have hobbies...my wife and I paid $1200 for a couple of second row tickets to the San Antonio Licks show...its what we like to do....some people buy motorcycles, liquor, vacations, whatever...we like Stones show

Most was 450 at the Tower in 2002.

Least was 50 at the Arragon in 2002 . . . which explains my "most" answer.

Anyone who saw the smaller shows from Licks really got to see something amazing. Hand of Fate and Dance Pt 1, Bono played on IORR, quite the experience.

There's not good way of describing the club shows. It was like seeing a 747 in your neighbor's garage.

Outrageous.

about $660 for shepherds bush '99 (not quite worth it but it was my first theater show)

$500 for aragon in'02 (was front row center) - well worth it!

$400 for wiltern in '03 (front row - keith) - well worth it!

(100 euros for olympia and face value for stockholm cirkus)

$550 for Shepherds Bush and $600 for the Astoria.
I think Club gigs are worth the oulay - but yes, I am crazy!

$480: Fenway 1
$450: Fenway 2
Excellent center seats from the box office!

110 euro for ahoy Rotterdam, Licks.

Cheers,

I paid USD 250 for a full (unused) ticket stub from the Hollywood Palladium show from 1972.
I only paid for the stub ; didn't see the show ; but everyday I look at the stub and it gives me everyday a great feeling.
That's worth the money!!
Anyone full stubs from 1972 for sale ??
Do not hesitate to contact me

Oh well, Shepherds Bush not worth it???

500 Euro = 607 USD = 330 £ = 4590 SEK
One ticket for Stockholm Cirkus 2003

1.000 USD for Philly Tower, worth it!!!

£150 at Wembley in 2003 - also the worst show I've attended out of about 17-18; Cheapest (& among the best) were Knebworth - £4.50 (yes, a long time ago, I know) and Sheperst Bush (£10)

Never paid more than face value for any Stones show.

£85 at Twickenham Stadium in 2003.
