I have been going to the stadium in Foxboro every time the Stones play there, also for the rehearsals (with a hired car) back in 2002. I have taken the "special train, which is leaving 1-2 hours after the show is finished, I have been staying at nearby hotels through early booking, walking in the dark back to the hotels in heavy traffic roads, and this year at the The Walpole Motel rated at

This thread is about Boston, not about rating stadiums. I have seen The Rolling Stones in the city of Boston at Boston Garden (TD Garden), The Green Monster (Fenway Park) and at the Orpheum. They are all great places. Sadly it seems like the Stones are mainly doing large scale football stadium shows these days. That is why I said that Foxboro is not my favorite, as that would be the place they wo

QuoteJ-J-Flash Harsh to say its the worst place to see a concert, there are plenty of airbnds within a few miles of the stadium and the sound in the stadium is fantastic in that there aren't areas I've heard of that have poor sound like many of the stadium this tour. Please do not twist my words. I said "Foxboro is one of the worst places", not the worst. It takes eight -

Gillette Stadium in Foxboro is one of the worst places to see a concert. First of all the few hotels on or near site talk to the venue, officially or behind closed doors, they hold hotel rooms, pretend to be sold out, and sell their hotel rooms at record high prices when shows are announced. Secondly you need a car to get there, or other special transportation. If they tour USA more tim

My daughter joined me for the tour in LA, and came to the show in Santa Clara. She did some videos. What I was amazed about, was the screen graphics. I do rarely watch videos, as long as they are still touring, and I am rarely outside the pit area, unfortunately. When you are in the pit, you don't really see all the graphics, but with zoom out and zoom in in a video, you see the song as it i

Finally I got my tour program! Also, the concert meal today was with the best "on tour" menu for sure. The "Beast of Bourbon" drink was fantastic (I am told). The "Sweet Taste of Heaven" was just like the name of the dessert is saying. They had "Mess It Up" fries and "Jumpin' Jack Flash" pizza. Brilliant concert meal!
