I am also wondering how prices will average this summer. In general I paid around $285 per upper level or side stage lower last time around, one night around $165 for upper level side. Also, what could a projected setlist be if SF is played? Would SF be played in order to open the shows (like Steely Dan did, or would they break it apart like Bryan Adams is doing for reckless) Songs 1- 10- A

Quotebv I see they are booking shows on Saturdays. May be they follow the same path as they had Down Under. Mid week like Wed and then Sat. With large stadiums it is nice to do shows during the week-end. Don't expect too many shows. Could you give me a hint ? How many of these Saturday shows will I end up needing to sell to see a certain other band on the East Coast? 6/13 Barry Manil

Just got off the phone with Dave from Dayton who many of you met at some of the shows over the years. He is looking forward to seeing everyone on the road this summer and is wondering what everyone is up to while sitting around waiting for the stones to tour.

From reading all of this does Mick Taylor regret leaving the band? I am happy for him that he got another chance to play with them. Regardless, it was great to hear BOTH him and Ronnie Wood play at the same concert and would have loved one more go around to hear Bill Wyman. Regardless, we should all be happy there are Stones shows to see in 2015. Many bands who are much newer aren't even a

As mentioned above, there were reviews for Forest Hills which stated there was no running water, porta potties outside the stadium and so forth. THe location though seems great. Given that the acoustics did not get good reviews, would they really want to film and record there in the event they were taping?

Whiplash was excellent. Although I am not one to watch award shows, JK Simmons won best supporting actor for his role in the film. Clark Terry was also just in a documentary called Keep on Keeping On with a younger pianist. I missed it but hopefully it will show on Netflix and/or Qello soon.

This is pure speculation only and just like guessing to myself. Is it possible they would end at MSG before the U2 run of shows. i.e like perhaps play July 17th. MSG is open from the 12th to the 17th. It also open the 9th. They could perhaps due 12th, 14th or 15th and the 17th. In terms of Philadelphia, the Phillies are out of town from the 3rd to the 16th. They could do Citizens Ban

I would have asked them when they are playing MSG, Texas, Atlantic City and Houston. Remember, you helped pay for their flight as well by buying tickets!

Why do they play You Got Me Rocking so much? I did not pay $184 and take Wednesday off to hear that song!!!! Can we vote for them NOT to play it??????????? Can we vote for it to be REMOVED from the future polls? If Chuck does a pivot table of all the setlists, he would find it high in the rankings. How are Chuck's Excel skills?

Rod gets all the chicks! Rod is like my 11th favorite artist (Billy Joel #1, Rolling Stones #2) Have seen Rod numerous times since the late 90's: Highlights include: Taking the train all night to Orlando AC 98- Hi-fiving Rod at MSG in 2007! Rod+Stevie Nicks=Fantastic! Going to Winwood (#6 favorite) with Rod in December. I felt as though the band was fantastic on the last t

Quotedgodkin from 70 to 76 i think the who were the best live band maybe ever,townsend, moon,and entwistle were great, but daltrey gave it the fire, He is still excellent; now granted no one at 69 has the vocal range they had in their youth but I felt as though they were the highlight of the 12/12/12 show

Forum: Tell Me

one Hit To the Body is in my top 10 stones songs- I am thrilled to this day they did it at my first show 9/1/89 as well as Harlem Shuffle. I also like Fight and Winning Ugly, I don't listen to the rest of the album much. Although I like Steel Wheels and Voodo Lounge Better, One Hit is my favorite among the three albums.

Since my first concert (Steel Wheels in '89) I have always worn the foam disposable ear plugs to concerts. I have been to over 400 concerts and have only skipped them on a few occassions- I will even wear them in some of the 3,000 seaters even in the balcony. I would encourage everyone to at least get these if not for the speciality ones for musicians. When I am playing my digital pianos, I

I ended up taking 215 row 7 at the $183 price even though it is side view. I had pulled 214 row 8 at around the same time and figured I would save $100 as I intend on going to the other Philadelphia shows as well and would be paying the $283 likely on Friday. The row 2 is excellent of course rocdoc since it is right near the entrance. I am going to the Eagles as well and pulled 207 row 1 for
