What would prompt just 4 shows? If Coachella brings them $14 and Vegas could bring them what- lets say $7 million a night that would give them $28 million for 4 shows. Is it that they don't want to play more or they would be playing US next year? Wouldn't they want at least 2-3 in NYC market for museum opening?

QuoteMontrealsuperfan Wow. Looks like my (our) Vegas tickets are suddenly worth a whole lot more! I took a risk buying on Stub hub, so far in advance. Looks like a good buy now!! Defintely! Plus Vegas is a great place to see 2 other shows in between- there's a lot it offers. Maybe I'll return to Vegas now instead of another type of vacation I was planning.

Quotebv Several sources say just a mini tour this time: Then a tour in Europe next summer including Croatia/Serbia, Austria, Norway and more, rumoured locations they are talking to, but that is another story I will comment on later on, in a sepaarate thread about the European Tour 2017. No MSG then?

QuoteRollingFreak Yeah, Neil Young is gonna be a pretty tough act to beat. Although all in all, I think its a pretty good weekend. Its like half and half: I like them all but half of the acts still do it better live. Neil Young still packs a punch, the Stones always manage to bring the house down, and Paul is still effortlessly cool somehow. Dylan, the Who, and Waters, all still very good, are de

What is everyone's ticket allocation for the tour? Last time around I averaged $285 and did 6 concerts in the second level. However, I might want to go to first level this time- I would assume to forecast setting aside $450 x 5 or 6. I would likely only stay over in a non-Philly/NYC/NJ market. Anyone else cancel other vacation plans? I was going to hit the high seas.

QuoteHonkeyTonkFlash If they don't plan on changing the setlist much from the recent tours, I hope they at least change the order of songs somewhat to change the pacing. I mean, does Satisfaction have to be the last song every time? Does YCAGWYW have to be the first encore? Please switch things around a little bit! Surely JJF and SMU aren't the only songs worthy of being opening numbers

I remember going to see Bruce in Atlanta during the reunion tour- funny thing is I hadn't seen Bruce till then and was running into these die hards. A woman at the airport recognized me and said her husband was mad beacuse she spent $10k of her child's college fund on the tour. I felt bad for her husband. I am perplexed to this day because he did more tours. So blesss you all for putt

I saw Philadelphia and Brooklyn- very inspirational. I shook his hand in Philadelphia- missed the pit but was against the rail in the second section. I fasted all day and had nothing to drink after 2pm to ensure I wouldn't need to use the bathtroom. Then went to see Billy Joel in NYC next day in 8 degree weather LOL

I still like the songs such as One Hit To the Body- I feel lucky that I saw them do it 9/1/1989 because I am not sure- did it stay in the set much longer?

They should play Atlantic City again although I would think Philadelphia would get it. One of the best shows I saw was Boardwalk Hall in '06

I would think they would want to announce in August and not around labor day weekend when people are focused on the holiday. Any speculation where they would go first after Vegas? Lets say there is a 10/22 Vegas show and they would play perhaps 10/25 (my birthday!) next. Do you think they would jump all the way to the east coast for the remaining 10-11 shows or midwest? I would think NYC

I think you got a great deal to be that close! I paid around $286 to be on the club level in '13 there and it is a great memory for me as well as I love DC to begin with. In the back of my mind I could see $450 next time around

I actually considered going on and getting a $700 set of tix for Desert Trip as I have relatives that live 3 miles from the venue but the following concerned me: 1. Flights right now seem ridicously high from Philadelphia- its like they are expecting a mass influx from the East Coast similar to college bowl games etc.. 2. Can I really do THREE double concerts in a row? In heat as well! 3

I remember in '89 when Billboard had an article as to what was sampled, i.e besides Sympathy it was from what I remember the cowbell to HTW as well. I prefer the '89 and '94/95 versions the most. I do agree about it moving more with the 16th notes in '89- and some point it almost sounds like a disco beat and I really liked that. As sampling became better I start to her the

It was kind of bizarre as people were already in line for tickets for JFK which was to be around 9/21 or so and told to leave. I would assume people were already in line in Buffalo as well. I do remember while the scramble was on they had considered Spectrum shows but likely figured they would have needed 4. As fate would have it , due to the shows being moved I was able to win tickets
