Prices dropped for some lower level, side, and back floor seats.

Just a heads up for some folks driving from outside of Chicago to the shows, the NASCAR street race set up is already getting started in the next week or so. Not sure how much it will affect parking North of Soldier (Gtant Park area) but it may be wise to buy parking in advance.

Lainey Wilson is the opener, don’t know her, per Wikipedia she is a 32 year old country singer. Seems to be a strange opener for The World’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band.

Mick loves his country music, he’s always been a wannabe. We got a country opener in Orlando too. They even invited him to sing Dead Flowers. The crowd seemed to love it, I was not impressed.

If that is so then Living Colour was a strange opener as well.

Did you say that just because you "don't know her" so that's why it "seems to be a strange opener"?

Do you know who opened for them in 1975? That's just as strange.

The Stones have often (especially when they did not have to rely on a support act to support gate revenue) booked support acts who may not be big stars, in the rock genre or having much connection the mass of Stones fans. I love it. I don't know Lainy's music, am not a fan of much country music (more not a fan of the culture around it), but parts of teh genre are great and there are some compelling artists with something to say. I got into Living Color, Stone Temple Pilots, Peter Tosh, The Meters and others thru exposure The Stones gave them.

Last night I saw KT Tunstall open for Roger Daltry. I know a couple of hits of KT's, but was really impressed with her, live. Listening to more of her music today. She only did a 30 minute set, but got the crowd engaged, had some great stories and lots of energy. Someone I would not have gone to see previously. (BTW for Who fans, Roger's voice was exceptional, and band (including several Who touring members) was stellar. Part electric, part acoustic, he did not have to compete with the power of a cranked up guitars or an orchestra. Worth seeing, esp for the $45 we paid

She did win country album of the year at this year's Grammy's.

AXS just dropped Pit A for the first Chicago show to $599.

A week before takeoff!

Looking at the weather forecast, I think I won't have to bring a leather jacket.

A group of us will be touring Chess (Willie Dixon Blues Heaven) on June 28 at noon. We have ome extra ticket, $20 US. If interested, please email me, don’t use thread.

I have LDs for Chicago 2. Have a feeling it's going to be HOT

It's been hotter than normal in IL. As of today the high is 81 on the 27th and 91 on the 30th. Partly cloudy both days.

I have 2 extra LD for June 27 and 1 extra for 6/30. Email me if interested at:

Thanks swimmetothemoon. I was just able to purchase pit b at face, $550 plus fees, on the AXS app, which was different pricing from AXS.com and Ticketmaster.

Ticketmaster would only have resale tickets for Chicago.

Looking to go to Chicago to see Stones. Long drive for me. Does anyone know what time the band has been hitting the stage? I want to be on time but anything before that is uncertain...

915ish local time

To play it safe, get there at 9:00. Normally, it's between 9:15 and 9:30.

Atlanta was 9:00 or 9:05.

In Europe they hit the stage quite often exactly at the minute of sun set.

Foxboro it was 8:45. Was told they had 11pm curfew at stadium.

In Philly and New Jersey it was 9:25

They’ll play for 115 minutes roughly so if the city has a curfew of 11 move the start time up by 30 minutes. Opening act concludes no more than 45 minutes after showtime. Stage is cleared and reset within 25 and then the typical wait of another 10-20 minutes

In 1982 they hit the stage when the games of the english soccer team were over.

No problem on this tour. The soccer team plays in another time zone.

Are the 6/27 LD's still available? I emailed you.

Thanks

Speaking of AXS and TM, I've never used AXS before.

TM has a barcode for each ticket.

AXS seems to have 1 barcide only. I'm assuming that is for all of your tickets?

Yes, apparently the single barcode is for all the tickets.

I'm interested in looking at the Chicago poster and T-Shirts are there any photos of them
