The line-up for the 13th is predominantly local, and short on big names, even for the locals. For $190 a pop for GA tickets with no seating, I was hoping for something more.

I’ve been to two Jazzfests.
Sure, there will be plenty of decent music that day, but compared to the eleven other Jazzfest days I’ve experienced, that line-up is rather lackluster. Thought they would have gotten some of the bigger local acts on board. Besides Kermit Ruffins and Trombone Shorty, what about the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, the Rebirth Brass Band, the Preservation Hall Band, or a Marsalis or two?
As for the seating, I was referring to the “special rules” in place for Stones Wednesday: no seats with backs or armrests allowed, just portable stools. No blankets allowed. Jazzfest is already a bit of an endurance test, and these rules make it even harder.

This has the potential for lots of sit-ins with the Stones.
Perhaps Ivan Neville and George Porter JR.?

Question for you all: I bought 2 GA Rolling Stones tickets for Jazzfest. It was more or less spur of the moment purchase. I'll get the tickets in my e-mail at the end of July. What is the best way to sell these tickets? I would even sell them at a discount to unload them.

Lackluster?
Voice of the Wetlands All-Stars featuring Tab Benoit, George Porter Jr., Big Chief Monk Boudreaux, Johnny Vidacovich, Johnny Sansone, and Wayne Thibodeaux will be outstanding.
Same with Anders Osborne, Samantha Fish, The Dave Brubeck Centennial featuring Chris and Dan Brubeck with special guests Joey DeFrancesco and Bobby Militello, Pell, Cowboy Mouth, Charley Crockett, Chubby Carrier & the Bayou Swamp Band, Lena Prima, Mem Shannon & the Membership, Joe Krown & Jason Ricci featuring Walter Wolfman Washington, New Orleans Suspects, SOUL Brass Band, Mardi Gras Indians, Jackson Square Allstar Brass Band, The Gospel Inspirations of Boutte, and the Young Seminole Hunters Mardi Gras Indians.
It will be a fantastic day of music.

Why wait on selling them?

Let's say Sockers56 resells his tickets on StubHub (or anywhere else) and gets the money for the sale.
Why should he then worry about any cancellations? After all, he already got his money.
Also, if he just lists his tickets, but doesn't manage to sell them before the show gets cancelled, isn't he still the original buyer on Ticketmaster and entitled to a refund?

I guess I'm not sure why it will be cancelled?

I do not see any Stones reference in the official poster. Am I missing it??
