I am afraid not. Less than a mile in my case. From my front door, I can walk to Croke Park in less than 10 minutes.
Rockee! R u coming and to which shows? Sent u an e mail the other day using yer e mail on this site. Is it still good?
Can't wait 2 spill another beer on ya !

Not after a tour!! Have to double down on work until next tour.
Well, you beat me. 1.2 miles from my front door to Twickenham stadium.

We never will.
Sorry/ not sorry

If they want to play for me they`ll have to come to me. This is what a lot of the anticipation before rumoured and confirmed gigs are all about. Not playing in one country is a threat to the participation at this site from fans in those countries.
-Disappointment.
As I said in a previous thread, I have the chance of having one of my best friends working for Air Canada and she can make a couple of friends benefit from her very interesting discount. I'll fly from Montreal to Nice and back to Montreal for $300 Can (or US $225). Usually, it would cost me at least $1400.00.
Also, my car will stay at the airport free of charge for 8 days... Good deal.
If it wasn't beacause of my friend, there's no way I could afford going to Europe to see the Stones.
As for the price for lodging, we're currently ''shopping'' on Air B&B and I'll rent a car for a week.
what show(s) r u attending?

It's 400 metres for my buddy (with whom I am staying) to Croke Park. Very convenient for the Miss You bathroom break.

I keep my fingers crossed for the team/country which has the least supporters living in Germany (I can't stand drunken football fans singing and shouting on the streets at night). Japan, Peru etc would be perfect

If anyone doesn't mind can you include how much your flight costs and hotel too. Very curious as to the actual costs of travel and lodging.

Funny how Anglo-Saxons still sticks to Iron Age measure systems. A mile is 10 km overhere. How many hundreds of years more will it take for Limeys to accept the metric system?

Trips abroad to a Stones show doesn`t seem right to me.
Also doesn't seem right to trip a broad with a stone
A trip abroad to see the Stones is a serious bucket list item for a lot of fans. Especially in their home country.
Not sure what doesn't seem right, though. Personally I have taken bv's advice as often as I can since given in 2012 (paraphrasing) "If you want to see the band live, you're going to have to travel, they're not going to tour forever".
If they want to play for me they`ll have to come to me. This is what a lot of the anticipation before rumoured and confirmed gigs are all about. Not playing in one country is a threat to the participation at this site from fans in those countries.

How about twice in one year flying from Amsterdam, via Japan, to Australia and back to Amsterdam and NOT seeing the Stones in Down Under?
I'm sure you understand that this time I am happy to settle with a modest "jump" across the Channel/North Sea
