Minnesota has declared a “peacetime state of emergency”. However, schools are NOT going to close. Our neighbor state, Wisconsin, has closed their schools. Minnesota (pop 5+ million) now has 14 positives out of approximately 555 tested. The first positive was announced 7 days ago.

Also Platinums in Sec B row 5 behind Pit 2 at $545+. Out of my price range/comfort zone, but bodes well for maybe some more prices being lowered and/or other seats becoming available as time moves on. Chicago #2

A little insight on Chicago weather and the seasons: Last week (May1), there was measurable snow in Chicago. Chicago is a northern city. Your safe window for an outdoor event such as a Stones concert, is June, July, August and September. Outside of those months you are rolling the dice. I imagine the window of opportunity is even less for Burl's Creek since that location is furthe

The San Jose airport (SJC) is in the same neighborhood as Levi Stadium. The 11:30pm airport curfew is violated from time to time. Oracle founder, Larry Ellison, landed his private jet after hours and was fined. A court battle over the fine ensued - I believe he won. NHL team Detroit Red Wings landed their jet after hours as well.

Compared to the other venues, Glendale has some pretty good opportunities. Pit 1 for $442 Section A4 has three groups of seats for $442, near the end of the catwalk/B stage. Keith's side.
