To save pre 9 may or not to save

i have not used my 9 may code, as i am holding out for a spring announcement of a smaller UK mini tour.do you reckon a pre 9 may will be used for a club show pre wembley ?

if i go to wembley, cardiff and sheffield, i will be able to get good tickets without using it. i could even hold out for onstage, when they are announced later.

Foolish, or sensible ? what do you reckon ?

i reckon it's a gamble- and like any gamble, there's no certainty.
Maybe you're get lucky with club show tickets/maybe not.
If i was in your position , and had a pre- 9/5 code, i'm not, honestly sure, what i'd do.
good luck.

Call me a fool but I still hope the stones will play in a cool venue next year.
Royal Albert Hall?
I said: call me a fool
So, I'm keeping it

I'd use it now.

Next summer looks as though it's all just stadium shows. (From end May to end August)

Don't think there's room for any type of smaller venues.

If I were you, I'd save it.
I've got a couple of memberships; already used one for Wembley and I'm keeping the second one 'just in case' they announce a smaller venue.
Surely you can get your money back if you don't use it, anyway?

well a few people who had them got £60 seats very close to the front for Wembley #1

If youre happy with great seats at a stadium show, it might be worth considering when the rest of the UK dates go on sale

Otherwise, I'd hang on to it in case theres a few small shows.

I'm one of the lucky who got £60 seats in row 3 for the first of the two Wembley gigs. I'm part expecting and part hoping that this front row (nearly) experience will be every bit as good as say Brixton was in 95, or the Bush in 99, so if you're inclined to think that this time around they just might NOT do club shows - then perhaps take the plunge and use the code to get killer seats in a stadium show. Looking at the schedule, and taking into consideration the fact that they haven't done club shows ANYWHERE so far in the States, it is well within the bounds of possibility that they really are not planning to do any at all on this tour. Horrible thought admittedly, but very real possibility I would suggest.

You are right....no use to waste the code for stadium gigs.
The last 5 tours I made the experience that you will always get a ticket for stadium gigs..even if they call it 10 times sold out.
If nothing helps you can get the ticket with ebay...i got several Front of stage tix for accetable prices( Okey...I paid 10 or 20 bucks more than offizial price)
and even at showday you get tix..if you have cool nerves you can get tix for half price by waiting one hour before showtime.
So if you have any hint of arena gigs or even smaller...save your code.

When listening to the Stones announcement from Dallas Mick clearly said that it will be Stadium Tour in Europe. Actually I was pretty annoyed when listeing to the video.

If you think it is a "waste" to use the code & get in the front few rows, then you deserve to hold on to it & get nothing. Front 3 rows for a Stones gig isn't a waste to, oh...say...a Rolling Stones fan...but to you it might be.
