Doubt if any reason for no SA tour comes from Stones camp. That's because they want to be politically correct and not insult SA. To me, it's obviously economics. SA is a mess. The two biggest, for the Stones, SA countries are Brazil and Argentina. Brazil's economy is slumping for several reasons - one is the corruption problems in government, but there are other reasons t

Quote24FPS Gary Clark is a yawn when it comes to the blues. John Mayer practically blew him off the stage and that's sad. The only one lamer for the blues is Robert Cray. And Kid Rock? He just samples old songs like Sweet Home Alabama and speaks over them some nonsense about missing drive-ins. Both extremely talented. I can only say good things about Mayer, but I'd rather hear Gary C

Early in SD sale, I pulled up row 4, pairs, in both A3 and A6, looking in the Diamond VIP sale - they are over $1700 a ticket.

That is a huge area for a concert. Indy is a fun place and very well run. I went to every Formula 1 race at Indy in the 2000s. They know how to handle crowds. However, with all sections being standing room only, and being so huge, I think I'll pass on this. Ohio Stadium - the entire structure, which seats 105,000 in the stands for football, would easily fit within that area, with a
