a worry id have would be all dates except Dublin will be announced on the 26th Feb with Dublin possibly being annonced at a later date due to the licence issue
What to do take a gamble and organise a trip to the uk or wait for a dublin date tba ???
Dublin would be suite me way way more tbh
Youre worrying over nothing. Theres nothing to gamble. You'll easily get a face value ticket for any stadium show, regardless of whether its advertised as 'sold out' or not.
If youre thinking about going to GB for a show and might change your mind, just book a fully refundable hotel room.

hopefully we will all have a bit of breathing space in the next 10 or so days when the dates are confirmed
only going to do 1 concert and will be my first time seeing the band.
number 1 is Dublin, 2 is Manchester and 3 is Cardiff or Southampton. Rumoured dates for London don't suite me at all

While I struck out every time I tried (2 x nosebleeds, 1 x no luck getting a pair at all), and my sister also ended up with nosebleeds the one time she tried, a friend of mine - Gaff who occasionally posts here (and shiddoobee)- did get pit for one of the Staples Center shows...or maybe it was Vegas. I think he took his young son for his first Stones show, and they had the time of their lives. Being that he's a pretty good photographer, he took some great pics! Also have read here quite a few who ended up being very lucky with their tickets, but a majority have seemingly been poor. Worth a gamble? Absolutely yes when you consider the overpriced face value of regular tix - at $85 (or $75 now) can't really lose.
Lucky Dips for Anaheim 1 landed us fifth row side stage on Ronnie's side. For Anaheim 2 we scored Pit. Vegas was midway up side stage Ronnie's side, while LA1 and LA2 landed us in the rafters.
Haha thanks Gaff for clarification - was going off memory. On average you did very well considering others like myself who got burned every time (but nothing a bit of manuevering couldn't take care of ).
The Pit for Anaheim2 alone made all the other gambles worthwhile for you!!! Aside from LA1 (I was in Hawaii), we attended all of the same shows that tour...but didn't you also go to Staples III?
Staples 3! Yeah man I was backstage for that one!
You've elevated your status nicely vs. the days of old and slumming it with the rest of us lowly riff raff.

I have been told the Old Trafford stadium shows in Manchester might be set for Sat Jun 2 and Tue Jun 5. See the updated IORR tour list:

With No Filter Tour Stones hinted on their social media about something goin on one week before announcement. Right now they are sharing some pictures from Hamburg etc. on Facebook. So its one week to official announcement?

I'm assuming they would tack on Warsaw and a few other cities immediatly after the UK.
Then a quick trip down under in November, followed by a return to the US in Spring '19 to coincide with the new album.

So if the opening is 17th May (Dublin) and they do a gig every 4 days (give or take) then Southampton, Edinburgh and ONE MORE would fit before Manchester on the 2nd June...
Then we have a 2 week gap at the minute between the 2nd Manchester (5th June) and the 1st London (19th June) so there could perhaps be room for 3 MORE gigs in those 2 weeks...
So that's a potential 4 gigs not on the rumoured list so far.
Maybe one will be Cardiff then maybe there could be 3 more... North-east (Newcastle), Northern Ireland, Midlands? OR do people think the stones will take a longer break between some gigs?

Great news if Manchester falls on a Saturday, could make it a weekend trip with max 1 off day needed. Hotels/apartments near Old Trafford being booked up as we speak!

I still think 8 or 10 stadium gigs in UK/Ireland would be probably too many, unless the prices are much lower than last year.
What about using the "gap" for rumoured continental dates like Warsaw, Berlin, Stuttgart, Marseille? London ist already the final stop perhaps.

The rumored Marseille date has been June 26th, perhaps making it the last stop(?)
