Anytime Jack Black honors somebody he says that they were the greatest. Dio, Zeppelin, don't matter.He's still in highschool and not cultured.

Prior to a walk to the B stage, they would have allowd Yoko to sing "Happy"

I thought a "wild card" moment would be Bruce doing Gimme Shelter. I've heard Bruce doing covers of it before with Joe Grushecky & the House Rockers, several times in 1995.

Only down part was a fan in the pit holding up a license plate as if the band was suppose to stop the show to acknowledge him.

My guess would be $10,000, 2 tickets + travel expenses and no profit sharing on Pay-per-view, DVD, rights. Or $15,000, no profit sharing and takes care of his own travel arrangments.

They accepted the highest offer. It was a massive dick waving contest between promoters and Virgin bid the highest to get the vanity name and the Virgin name on the map in touring.

If the state of New York allowed paperless ticketing this would not be an issue.

Coming from Bravodo, I question anything that is claimed signed. In the fall they had a lmtd edition of 500 8x10's signed by a well-known group and sold as a bundle with the new CD and a shirt. The photos were auto pen and signatures replicated were not even what the legit ones looked like. They did refund my purchase.

Why was Stevie Nicks thrown off a flight from New York to London? Because one of the passangers was allergic to nuts.

The bonus footage of the full rehersal is a full performance on the soundstage, but a single camera shot from where soundboard would be. Without the energy of an audience, it's lame. Only complaint about the performance DVD is that the camera edits are too quick and distracting. You can't get the feel of a live show when there is an edit every 2 seconds. Sound quality is excellent

My opinion is that they got paid nothing. They were giving the opportunity to have a last chance to play to a large audience.

I think the tour promoter AEG scared off the casual fan by initally selling the really good floor and side seats in pairs as part of VIP packaging. Not sure what the market indicators were that they decided to take this on the road. I enjoyed it, but it just seemed odd that they went out on the road with zero anticipation or rumors.

My friend filmed this last Sunday. Advance to the 5 min mark.
Forum: Tell Me

Closer to show date, the unsold packages will be released at normal box office prices and you will not have to buy them in pairs.
Forum: Tell Me

Don't bother with the pre-sales. Look for tickets starting 5 days before the performance. Why give someone your money 8 months ahead of time.
Forum: Tell Me

Tour promoter and band mgmt can shuffle tickets around through stubhub and TM Platinum Seating section. When they do not sell they get moved back into the general TM pool. I see it quite a bit.

Years ago Pete told me that he did not play on the McVicar soundtrack. It was just under The Who brand name.

It's smoke & mirrors. Good luck trying to find the cheap tickets when the go on sale. Their VIP packages do not include any sort of M&G, the packages are actually insulting. Over $1,000 for a ticket and you can have your picture taken with his mic stand, some swag, take the chair home and you can listen to roadies tell stories. No joke. Their mentality is that middle-age women
Forum: Tell Me

Be patient, as they realize that the VIP type seating/packages are not selling, they will release them at face price or switch them to the Ticketmaster Platinum Seats at a lower price. No swag, but much cheaper. Pittsburgh they have relased a good part of the first 5 rows floor over the past 3 weeks in the $149 - $275 range. Better than $600

Sound is really good, they must be using an analog soundboard. Great instrument separation.
Forum: Tell Me

Nah, I just figured they were only signed by Ronnie because he was the only one at the office at the time and they asked him to sign some.
