The Worst.
I honestly don’t get all the fuzz about the pit being split into two halfs. As long as they complete and connect the pit with the main stage at the ends, you’re still being inside the pit – the only difference being there is a catwalk in the middle, meaning you’ll actually have a greater chance of seeing more of the band up close. The only downside I can think of is being on the Ronnie side if you’d planned to be on the Keith side. We’ll just have to wait and see how it turns out once the work is done. I for one think it’s really exciting that they have a brand new stage set for this tour. The one they used between 2014-16 was a bit boring IMO. I can’t wait to see the stage and show in full action on Saturday!

They really have shafted and deceived the fans yet again and I keep coming back for more ! They knew the outrageous pricing structures we saw in Vegas wouldn't work in Europe so let's just go for straightforward deception.
It started with the panic buying of Silver pit which most people presumed would be surrounding the NO FILTER PIT (now diamond section by an other name) only to be confronted by the horror of front section floor seats which had never been mentioned prior to sale day.
We had to buy blind with no (correct) seating plan available until after initial selling. WE NEVER LEARN.

A similar thing happened at Hyde Park in 2013 for the golden tier. On the day, the layout and various other promised facilities were not as described at the time of purchase, so I pursued AEG for a refund on the ground of misrepresentation, spoiled enjoyment etc. (I quoted the relevant UK law to them). They tried to brush me off, but I persisted and eventually they caved in and refunded my money because they knew that my arguments were legally sound and they were in the wrong.
Yes, I remember that fiasco. I'm going through the normal process of compartmentalizing my fandom. I have to separate my hatred of greed from my love of Rock n Roll and open G !
I'll be OK by Saturday...............or drunk. (you know us)

I'm only wondering, is it transportation from/to the concert? Or can I go to some museum in the city center in the morning and then go back to my location with this ticket as well?

To be exact and correct. I checked telephonically with the HVV. Strictly it reads "one trip to the venue and back".
In practice it means free travel that whole day and night. If it happens any conductor, bus driver or other transport personnel asks you to produce your ticket, show him your Stones ticket with the HVV imprint on it. That'll be enough. You are, of course, on the way to or from the event.
If there is still the slightest doubt, show the ticket to the bus driver when mounting the bus, e.g.

Well it's not going to be warm anyway! I'll probably wear my fleecy jacket. 13C at night!
I'm STILL trying to get information from the promoters/organisers about Pocket Compact Cameras. I emailed them and also left a message on their Facebook Page. Several others are asking the same question. It would be harsh to ban them when Smartphones have such good cameras nowadays. Everywhere else allows them. We have some pretty good photographers on here, latvianinexile being one of the best and he'll be there for sure. We definitely know professional cameras aren't allowed and we expect that.

Compact camera's won't be a problem; I'm confident that I will get mine in...
