After emailing BST, Barclaycard and Ticketfactory on Saturday, I finally received a response from Ticketfactory as follows: Thank you for your email regarding the Rolling Stones at Hyde Park. It may be helpful to explain that The Ticket Factory sells tickets for shows, as one of a number of agents, on behalf of promoters and organisers. The promoter is responsible for all aspects of the co

I wouldn't put too much faith in Barclaycard - their so-called customer services are particularly crap - I know, I have a Barclaycard. I bought 2 tier 2 tickets through their pre-sale, with access to the "Unwind" (which we now know to be utterly useless), so I have e-mailed them about this rip-off. As expected, no reply whatsoever!

"It's only a short tour. It's only 18 shows" Only 9 confirmed though - does Charlie know something we don't?

Same here can't get past the "select delivery" option - I rang them up, they said website has crashed and nobody can get past the delivery option! They can't sell them over the phone, and when I asked if any of these "Unwind" tickets had been sold, she said "Some, but it's not sold out, despite what it says on the website". Usual cock-up then...

The story goes that Mott and the Stones were both recording at Olympic studios at the same time. Mick came into Olympic 2 when Mott were recording Walking With A Mountain, hence the Jumpin' Jack Flash reference at the end of the song. Apparently he danced around, but didn't sing any backing vocals. Guy Stevens (Mott's manager/producer) told Mick they were going to call the album St

At the website (www.charlieismydarling.com) there is a free song download - click on the shamrock marked 'free song'. Its a rough/rehearsal version of I'd Much Rather Be With The Boys.I've not heard this version before, and I've not seen the film yet - is it from the film?

We were in block 406 row T on the 23rd, "cheap" seats at something like £85 each. A very long way from the stage, could hardly see anything. Couldn't see anything from the video screens because of the way the PA speakers were stacked in front of them. The sound was awful, very boomy and echo-ey, every time Charlie hit his snare, it came bouncing back 2 seconds later, vocals were a

No such thing as a decent nosebleed seat I'm afraid - we were there in 2007, crap view, crap sound - a 2 second echo bouncing around the roof - and you can't even see the video screens!

I'm having problems with this as well. Paid for it via paypal, but when I click the 'download' button all I get is 'mydownload manager' which I can't open. No response from their 'customer services' - rip off!!

This is on BBC i-player, so may not be available in all countries... About 18 minutes in, short 10 mins or so by Chris Jagger on a photo shoot for Beggars Banquet in a Derbyshire village. The photos are the ones of the Stones playing cricket in front of a ruined building, one of which ended up being used for More Hot Rocks. Also includes interview with the photographer, Michael Joseph.

I was at the Leicester show on the 14th, which was a Friday, and one of the best concerts I'd ever been to (at the time). So I was a bit peeved to read in the NME the following week that Clapton had got up and played on the following night (Saturday 15th). So, the available tape is of the 14th, Clapton played on the 15th, and, as far as I know, there is no tape circulating of this. Perha

A quick translation of the last two questions: A Stones tour to celebrate your career of 50 years is being talked about. Can you confirm it? It's under discussion at the moment. We're saying that if we do something it will be next year or in two years. We're at an age when we can't plan too far ahead in the future...To celebrate 50 years on stage, that would be incredible.

Re the Let's Spend The Night Together/Start Me Up promo single - despite what it says on the label, these are not actually from the film soundtrack, but are from Still Life. For the film, Let's Spend The Night Together is from Sun Devil Stadium (13 Dec) and Start Me Up is from Brendan Byrne Arena (5 Dec). Still Life - Let's Spend The Night is from Hampton Roads Coliseum (18 Dec) an

Many, many thanks for reposting this Jagger50. I was at this one, so it will bring back a lot of memories for me...as I remember, security was tight, we all had our bags searched and my camera was confiscated, so I'm glad someone managed to smuggle some recording equipment in!

I play left-handed as well. The main problem is getting hold of decent left-handed guitars at a fair price - the last time I saw a lefty Tele it was over £2000! There used to be a shop on Leytonstone High Street - Lefty's (naturally) - and it just sold left-handed guitars and basses. It was on the top floor of a music shop, and used to have loads of left-handers. Heaven! Anyone know if it�

There's a brief preview available on Amazon - it's a completely new version to me, not the b-side or any other I've heard on bootleg. Sounds like an early electric version. Anyone else heard it before?

Yes, this has been asked before...According to Martin Elliot's book, which is fairly reliable, it's from Death Valley Stadium, Clemson, South Carolina on 26 November 1989.
