There is a new podcast in the UK called the Price of music. The subject of tickets being held back has been covered. It seems as though for a large venue, the promoter will hold back thousands of tickets themselves to sell on the secondary market at inflated prices. May not be Ticketmaster at fault in this instance.

Think your'e clutching at straws with that one. The word Landlord is used widely in the UK to describe either someone that rents out property or is a publican (the person that owns a pub).

More likely Melody Maker. NME hated 'dinosaur' bands and would have slated it. Sounds was more Heavy Rock orientated.

Just a heads up for anyone in the UK, for £1 you can become a member of the Co-op. As a member you will get access to exclusive pre sales. The Co op arena would be an obvious indoor venue.

Just a reminder not to use multiple devices on one IP address. Ticketmaster will think you are a BOT and throw you out when you get to the end of the queue / line. I guess it will be ok if you are trying for different cities. Just check the long Queue ID code underneath your number in line, if you have two that are identical you will need to close one of them. Loads of Taylor Swift fans

Booked a refundable Air bnb 20 mins walk from BC Stadium, Vancouver. Will be flying over from the UK for a two week vacation, to Vancouver / Vancouver Island that has been on my bucket list, since I retired 10 years ago. Can't wait, Bears, Whales and the Stones all in one trip.

No dynamic pricing. I bought 2 Platinum tickets for Cardiff £240 each middle tier,second block along from the stage. Happy with that.

No email, nothing. Really peeved off as I would have gone down to HMV to buy it this morning, if I had known. I freed up this afternoon to settle in and give it several spins but will now have to wait until Monday (if it has arrived by then).

Have fun with that for what she charges for tickets. £180 top price fo

They were just known as London Calling Music. Pre internet days. I think they may still be around but not too sure. I assume once the internet was up and running people stopped using them and made their own ticket and travel arrangements.

Stones - Paris Parc de Princes 1990 Stones - Paris Longchamp 1995 Stones - Hamburg 1998 Queen - Brussels 1982 All real good experiences. Hotels were good. Coach broke down in France for one of the Paris gigs and we spent several hours on the side of the road awaiting a replacement (passed the time with my mate reciting Monty Python gags).
