Essentially the co-lead vocalist on what many feel is the Stones best track, and others place among the greatest tracks in rock history. Praying for a full recovery.

What's amazing are the Stones are successful in convincing us that when we pay $500 for a pit ticket, we got a great deal . . . . . sigh . . . .

Ahhh . . . another year, another tour. I'm looking at Vancouver, but I saw them at the BC Place stadium on the Bigger Bang tour, and the sound was very "boomy". Have they improved the sound at that venue?

QuoteLazarusSmith This is great writing: Once there was a way to get back homeward Once there was a way to get back home Its emotional complexity comes from the oblique way in which it says that while there may have once been a way homeward, we certainly can't get back there anymore.

Quote24FPS I live here and can't imagine going to see anybody at the Rose Bowl. The entire parking situation will be grueling, and expensive. I can't imagine getting in and out of there without it taking hours. I would skip the encore and run for my car, just to get ahead of the madness. I saw U2 there in upper level seats and it was pointless. You could hardly hear and they seemed a mi

Quotebleedingman I'm enjoying watching good seats pop up and disappear, often to promptly become "Verified Resale" for double the price. Pit tickets come and go very quickly. New York shows are always tough. Bought my "platinum" pit ticket for $600 plus fees when resale tickets calmed down in December. I like the peace of mind for the past 7 months, but it does kind o

I've got Pit 1 for August 5, and finally managed to schedule flights to NY for the show. I think I paid $650 - a bit of a premium a few weeks after they went on sale, but I'm happy with that price. Based on what we've seen so far, is there any chance that tickets will drop way down on stubhub or ticketmaster resale the day before or day of the show? I wouldn't mind takin

My sister bought "lucky dips" for the Rose Bowl then, thinking that she would prefer to sit in good seats, bought decent seats close to the stage. What can she do with the lucky dips? I assume that she can't return them. Can she call ticketmaster or the venue and have the name on the Lucky Dips changed? Will it be easier if they are transferred to her brother (i.e., ME)?

QuoteHMS They only hired MT to humilate him. They tried to do the same with Bill, but he didnt need the money so bad. Utter nonsense. Midnight Rambler was basically structured and arranged to allow him to shine. By the end of the tour in Europe and Asia, the song had expanded to 15+ minutes. Check out Roskilde or Stockholm or Auckland from that tour. I’ll never forget those shows. vide

QuoteKurt Thoughts on Lucky Dip... Last night seemed very random and most people picking up tickets from 4:15-4:45 seemed to be getting the same Side Stage Limited View tickets that we got. I only saw one Lucky Dipper get visibly excited, jumping up and down, assuming he pulled PIT. We were given wristbands for some unknown reason. Basically it just gave us hope for an upgrade later ???

One of the best tour opening shows I can recall. They were musically solid and all of the little changes (the new intro, the new video, “You Gotta Move” interpolation, Mick and Keith singing together on “Dead Flowers”. I was very impressed.

Saw the show from Pit 2. Got there around 6:30 pm. Pit was fairly empty. For this show, front row pit would not be my choice. Too many instructions - high stage, and a camera guy parked right in everyone’s view on Keith’s side. Ridiculous. VIP seats near the B stage would be great.

Well, if that's what it takes - I would point out the racist "Puerto Rican girls" line in "Miss You", the violence in "Midnight Rambler" and we all know what will give Mick "Satisfaction", right? Don't play them any more!! Hmmm . . . maybe Ian Brennan is a closet Stones fan who is just tired of the warhorses. This might be his very clever

Sporadic pit sales for Pasadena on Stubhub, but sale prices have been very high - a little less than $2000 per ticket. Well, I guess that's to be expected for LA on a Saturday night. I wouldn't count on any bargains for pit tickets at that show. If you have the time, Glendale Arizona on a Tuesday is a much better bet.

The Stones played ten shows at Tokyo Dome in spring 1990. I bought tickets for eight of them. Tickets were expensive (JPY10,000 or about $70 at the time), and at the age of 29, I really couldn't afford it, but no mortgage, no car, no kids yet, so I just closed my eyes and bought. Even crazier, Paul McCartney had scheduled six shows at Tokyo Dome right after the Stones finished, and I bough

Right now, on Stubhub, it appears that there are 32 tickets left in Pit 2 (Keith side) and 134 tickets left in Pit 1, with only ten actual sales since January 1, 2019. I pa
