I don't want to watch opera, thank you very much!! But many people who are so inclined also complain bitterly about the prices which deny them access.

Clearly time for me to get my head examined! - You're right as well, Logie. I don't think it's all as clear-cut as it may seem. But it is really hard to fathom a Wembley price of £22.50 in 1990 and £30 in 1995, as far as I recall, and now it's £150?! How much is that in or out of line with other things? I don't think they're alone, though. I'm not sure but

Straycatuk is right - we get ripped off for just about everything in the UK. But I have to disagree with his comment about Stones tickets - top price in US was/is $450. So far top price in UK is £150, as far as I'm aware, which is quite a bit less. How many people are employed to put and keep this show on the road?? I have no idea but it's definitely a LOT LOT more than a handful at

He's just about OK on guitar. No complaints, but it's not his obvious forte. I don't think he can play without looking at the strings/fingers. Is that a lack of confidence or a style? After all, Mick Taylor does the same - but I think Mick's case is more the former and Mick T's is definitely all the latter.

Which row, Maxx? I have the same block (row 1, seats 9 +10) - see you there! Kennydice - my info was for Cardiff. I don't know any details about Glasgow (or Sheffield).
Forum: Tell Me

Maxx - At one point i was trying to determine which seats and rows were nearest the B stage in Cardiff. Ticketmaster told me that seat 1 in the number 4 blocks (ie, A4, B4 etc. on keith's side) started at the walkway - i.e., running from left to right. They couldn't tell me, however, whether seat 1 on ronnie's side started in the number 3 blocks or the number one blocks. There ar

there were some £60 front pitch seats not long ago still on sectickets.com
Forum: Tell Me

Despite all efforts, I failed to get a refund from ticketmaster once. I have one of those accounts set up with them, though, and I noticed a section in there the other day which seemed to offer the opportunity to sell or swap tickets you no longer want. I didn't investigate it, so I don't know the details.

I saw her a few months ago in London at a Marianne Faithfull concert. I stood right next to her outside as we both copped a pre-concert ciggie. Someone immediately came up and kept asking her questions - she obviously didn't appreciate it but just smiled very politely and sweetly while repeating "I don't know". The person finally got the hint and went away. She's stil

I exchanged a few words with Ronnie in NY, so I saw him close up and I thought he looked pretty damn good. Better than Blondie, who I also saw close up - he looked quite a bit more ravaged than Ronnie to me. Ronnie's always been pretty skinny as far as I know. Better that than the other way round. If he were fat, he'd get plenty of slagging for it on here...

What is your point in saying he's a has-been? I can't see any to it myself. Whether he is or he isn't, so what? What has he ever done to offend you? Good riddance to starting threads like that is more to the point.

I had NO regrets paying $450 for MSG, but that was my choice. I'd rather spend it on that than on other things, that's all. I don't have to justify it to anyone and no one has to justify why they don't want to spend it that way. If anyone doesn't want to spend it that way and that's a lot of people, that's fine. They probably spend it instead on things I wou
