A very disappointing event. The guy was done for straight FRAUD, and he happened to use concert tickets. He could just as well have sold a dodgy car. It in no way addresses the dreadful activities of Viagogo and others.

Quotemighty stork I'm sorry, does anyone know who the gent is between Mick and John? It's Paul's brother Mike. Went by the stage name of Mike McGear for a long time so that he wasn't overtly cashing in on his more famous brother. Photo obviously taken in Paul's house. I know that because of the ALTERNATE Sgt Pepper drumskin on the wall. This is unusually intere

I'd quite like shots of the band members wandering around half way up Hanging Rock, all the while calling out..."Miranda!". But that's just a whimsy.

Quotemighty stork Pictured with artists that inspired them: Had to go to video for this one because I couldn't locate a photo and it's too important to leave out. With Howlin' Wolf Opening with Billy Preston on keyboards... A truly great bit of film. No question.

Quotestraycatuk The trouble is that most of the scalping is done by ticketmaster, getmein etc. Before they ever get into the hands of a traditional tout outside ths venue I'm sure it was a typo but you missed out Viagogo (excuse my bad language!)

Just heard a news item on the (Australian) ABC that the South Australian Govt has declared that the Stones' Adelaide Oval concert (and some other event) is a "Major Event" and that as a result the State's legislation on TIcket Scalping comes into play. There will be huge fines for illegal ticket sales outside the venue on the day. As soon as I can find a more complete ac

Richard Branson was just another record retailer until the extraordinary success of Tubular Bells. Arguably if Tubular Bells had not sold, then there would be no Virgin empire around the world. I bought it when it very first came out (my original vinyl label is mono printed - ie no colour printing on the lable) when it was played on the John Peel (RIP) show in the UK. Loved it. Still quit

If you want to get some idea of the Melbourne venue, then the current (mid-January 2014) Australian Open Tennis is in large part coming from The Rod Laver arena. So find it on a TV near you and watch some of it.

Two short nominations. 1) Mick & Brian introducing Howling Wolf on Shindig! Brian is as good as jumping up and down with excitement. (Factoid... Wolf's keyboard player is Billy Preston). 2) Atlantic City '89. Clapton guests on "The Red Rooster" and plays a blinder of a solo. As he walks back to join Keith & Ronnie, Mick walks past him and gives him a smile/

QuoteGodxofxrock9 I think that pic of mick is from 1989/90 It's from early 1989 when Mick & Keith (plus a tiny entourage) left the Steel Wheels sessions and went to Morocco to record (most of) 'Continental Drift' with the JouJouka musicians. It's all filmed in an outstanding BBC documentary called 'World Music'. Well worth watching so that you can see the c

Actually, in early 1962 John Lennon took the stage in Hamburg (Star Club) wearing a Gorilla suit. So there was a gap of 51 years, and then The Stones really did copy The Beatles. (Read all about it in Mark Lewisohn's recent vast book about The Beatles (up to the end of 1962)).

QuoteMore Hot Rocks I heard House of the Rising Sun was done in one take for a just 5 pounds. 15 minutes of setup and recording and out. Plus about 2 years of playing it most nights in clubs, pubs etc! Exactly same is true of The Beatles first album. Done in an afternoon and evening - but following thousands of hours 'rehearsal' in Liverpool, Hamburg and places inbetween.

Quote24FPS Isn't the greatest irony that you're paying the most amount over money ever to see the least amount of Rolling Stones ever? Please explain. In the early years the on stage time was rarely over 30minutes then it went up to about an hour, so how come you are asserting that lucky ticket holders will see the "least amount" "ever"?

I don't think that the core problem is the 'selling' of the tickets - other than Ticketek clearly needing better sized servers, but it's the resale market. The Promoters are at the core of this. They release blocks of tickets to resellers. I will accept that there's a legitimate market there. eg Promoter releases tickets to 'Wonder Nights' and then Wonde

Absolutely no luck at all for Rod Laver. And that was despite being signed in, and on the Ticketek site in two separate computers - one for the PC3 tickets, and the other for Lucky Dip. Despite hitting return at 09:00:01 and getting 'wait' it denied me any Lucky Dip tickets at all. Tried for 30 minutes until it said "Allocation Exhausted". I did capture the URL and t
