To my friends local to Pasadena or LA--I am staying in a hotel in old town Pasadena. Is it walking distance to and/or from the Rose Bowl from the hotel? I went to a Rose Bowl game years ago and remember getting in and out by driving was just a horrible experience. Would much prefer to walk if that is doable. Thanks in advance for the intel.

I wonder about ticket sales as there is a ton of advertising for the show in South Florida and tickets are already on Groupon and the show isn't until September.

Ohyesmeagain--I live in Miami and go to Naples frequently. It is a very easy drive that takes anywhere from 90 minutes to 2 hours, depending on where you are staying in Miami. You drive right through the Everglades which, by the way, is a National Park, and not something to be avoided. But don't worry, you drive through the Everglades on a very nice highway which fences out the wildlife. It

Further to Hairball's comment, while it is nice to have a good opener, I do not think they sell a single extra ticket because of who the opener is. The prices are too expensive for that. Everyone that is there is there to see the Stones.

Quick ticket buying question for the group--today I tried to buy tickets for Bob Seger on my computer at work and after getting tickets in my cart, it said something like we can't complete the transaction on this device so please use a different device. I have bought many many tickets on my work computer/laptop, including numerous Stones tickets on the upcoming tour. I know that this has hap

Why the thought that Boston isn't selling well? As Jeter points out, there are very few standard tickets available. The band and/or ticketmaster would have to be business dumb, which they clearly are not, to hold back standard price tickets because the sooner they sell them, the more money they make on the float which is exactly what they are doing by selling the tickets so many months in ad

It seems as if this tour has sold much more quickly than zip code did but of course the markets are much bigger. Miami is a notoriously bad concert city, being very easy to get tickets to almost anything at any time. One of the many perks of living here. And it appears to be sold out as to standard tickets. I am sure they will release more as the packages don't sell and the platinum don'

Way too expensive for my blood but I actually think it's cool! If I had the disposal $ I'd be in. Great coffee table book in my opinion. To each their own.

Thanks Daspyknows. I was hoping that was the case as I love the idea of the pit experience but don't care about being next to the catwalk or rail. Too crowded for enjoyment but different strokes for sure!
Forum: Tell Me

I have a general pit question for those that have been. Is it possible to hang towards the back of the pit and not feel like a sardine? I have had front pit for Springsteen for a number of shows and if you didn't feel like pushing up to the front, hanging in the back of the pit was a great experience. Still very close but no mass of humanity/subway cramming type experience. I am doing pit in

While I am sure I could have done better if I held out longer I wanted to know I was in the pit, Keith side, so I bought Platinum Pit/Keith for $650 for Jax and for $700 for Philly. Feel good about the lack of stress between now and the shows even though could possibly have saved a couple hundred for each show. To me it wasn't worth the continual checking of ticketmaster and stubhub. Rather
Forum: Tell Me

Pit tickets for most shows on stubhub are going for $700-$900 with all the brand new excitement of the onsales and tour announcement. I'm pretty sure from past experience that by 1-2 months before show time those who want pit tickets will be able to get them in the $500-$600 range. Probably a bunch lower than that if you can wait until very close to show time.

So as to ticketmaster fees--I bought a pair for Miami and a pair for the Rose Bowl yesterday. Miami were $394.50 each face and Rose Bow were $397.81 each face. Miami also charged a $45.00/each facility fee and a $91.36/each service fee. So that added $136/ticket. Rose Bowl was $1.69/each facility fee (yes that's right $1.69) and $50.00/each service fee. So for Rose Bowl it was an extra $51.6

I understand that you can walk from the stadium to old town Pasadena but hopefully someone from that area will confirm this for us. That is what I am planning to do if in fact it is doable. I am willing to pay to stay in old town if it makes getting to and from the stadium walkable. To me, that adds tremendous joy to my concert experience to not have to deal with traffic, parking, etc.

Rolling Freak--what's the secret? What do you say to customer service? Just that you don't like your tickets and would like better ones? or anything more magical than that?

Thanks everybody for the great advice of floor vs. side stage! If I can get pit tickets I presume that is still the best option?
Forum: Tell Me

If I am unable to get pit tickets, do you think floor "seats" are better than side stage up close in the stands? I am taking my daughter who is only 5 feet tall and afraid with everyone standing on the floor she won't be able to see. Unless the stage is high enough that that is not a problem. Can't decide between floor and side stage in the stands. Thoughts?

Does anybody have a feel for whether the American Express presale or the fan club presale will have better tickets or if they will be the same pool? Also, which do you think will be easier to get tickets?

I have no interest in the setlist book, unless of course it becomes $10-$15 at some point. However, I find it fascinating the diatribe against Ronnie and/or the fans that have the cash and are interested in the book. More power to them both! In my view there is nothing wrong with Ronnie selling what he considers his artwork and nothing wrong in fans either saying yes or no to buying it. I'm

I have seen Seger a number of times and he puts on an excellent show, and more importantly, still sounds great. If you are a Seger fan, I highly recommend you try to catch this tour. He doesn't seem the type to do a number of farewell tours. If he says this is it, it likely is!

There is one not so slight difference between the Stones and Metallica playing new songs and taking chances. The vast majority of the crowd at a Metallica show are Metallica fans (I was one of them). The vast majority of the crowd at a Stones show these days are people that want to say they were there as a discussion topic with their friends/at work, and/or to say they saw the Stones and/or to bu

I will be shocked if they don't play more shows with Exhibitionism coming to the U.S. in November. My guess is they will announce the dates of Exhibitionism and the dates of the shows at the same time. Hopefully soon.
