if you look on tmaster ireland there are only seats at the back in upper and lower tiers. no pitch, no good seats, no middle tier. so either they are approaching sold out or they are rather stupid by not selling the top price or GA tickets. sure there will be drops and probably there are some good tickets available not currently showing as sold but i suspect that most shows are actually well over 70% sold and at that level, they are in profit

If it's so terrible, I still can't buy Pit tickets for this show.

Honestly, I can't understand conclusions like "there are available tickets at many sections, so the sells must be bad". Because:

(1) We don't know the percentages of sold/unsold tickets, for the time being, at every section and totally.

(2) The "modern" selling strategy of their management is not that new anymore... I suppose more people (compared to what happened in the recent past) do found reasons to be patient, still waiting for some dropped prices. Many fans have learned better the "new" (?) lesson...

(3) in function of (2): The tour starts on May 17. Not tomorrow, not in one week
from now...

Edinburgh for sure and I’m “working” on the possibility of another one, Hairball. Unfortunately, some responsibilities are not allowing me to do what I want: Attending at least three or four gigs.

But, hey, I comfort in knowing that my son (8.5 years) will attend his second Stones show, in Edinburgh. The first on was in Barcelona (2017). I almost cried seeing his ecstasy...

The choirs were a local thing...but are a thing of the past.
YCAGWYW was not performed with a choir during any of the NO FILTER Tour stops last year.

Since 14 on Fire I changed my ticket policy completely.
Sitting in front of my mac and forking myself hours long through the ticketmaster-process I found by time quite annoying.
And not worth a long time 74 gigs Stones Fan.
Since then I just follow the principle included in name of my band: Rolling!
I just let it roll.
I don´t buy anything in advance.
I wait until a week before tourstart and then I start:

1. Look where I'm really in the mood to go for.

2. Buying spare tickets from other Stones-Fans-Friends.

3. Or: Buying ticktes at the (fantastic) IOOR-Fansale "Sold Out".

4. Booking transport & hotel (reasonable prices still availlable if you take your time)

5. Arriving at the Stones venue wiht a spontaneous, adventurous, fresh, rolling
with the Stones feeling.

Excellent News! Good to see them giving the show a (very) local flavour thumbs up

My sister's coming to this show with me as my LD partner - I'll let her know.

It was my sister who informed me this morning, she is a big specials fan, but had booked to see the stones anyway and is over the moon with this announcement and so i am.

I have about 10 family members coming and they will be up for it even more now.

It's a very clever move by the Stones' management and should give ticket sales a boost.

That should secure a sell out. Fantastic addition.

Heard a while back that Snow Patrol were going to be doing Dublin. Not sure how accurate that is but since I heard that rumour they've announced about half a dozen shows around Ireland for mid-May - with May 17 being one of the the very few nights off so far....

wishful thinking by some journos based on the assumption that if Exhibitionism is going down under then the band would be likely to play shows there to promote it.

Wouldn't expect any more shows in 2018 after July. Especially as they're hoping to finish an album later this year (yeah, I hear you saying 'don't hold your breath'... tongue sticking out smiley)

I could see targeted support acts this time around. Happy Mondays or Stone Roses for Manchester ? Stereophonics for Cardiff ? Texas for Edinburgh ?????

Should help with sales
