Wish it was a two ticket limit each time you logged into the site, that way we all get a chance to purchase good seats without having to buy resale seats from people who buy whole blocks at a time.

Flying into LA from New Zealand on 7 May with plans to overnight there, then catch an early train to SD morning of the 8th. Booked Marriott Mission Valley for the 8th, then into the Gaslight area for 9th and 10th. Can anyone local comment on the reliability of the Pacific Surfliner train?

Thanks for the dates BV, can you enlighten us as to the Vancouver date? There doesn't seem to be time between San Diego and Minneapolis for Vancouver.

Not so good for those of us who travel halfway around the world, fustrating when you see good New Year airfare sales come ..... then go. Very expensive if booking just 1 month in advance. But then I guess we are not the priority aye.

QuoteTornAndFried I spoke with a couple of tour crew members at the New Jersey show in August and they said it was likely the Stones would be returning to the US next summer to play more stadium shows in the cities they missed this summer: Atlanta, Detroit, Dallas, St. Louis, etc. That seems to be the plan as the rumors suggest but things could change. Not worried about where they play this tim

Quotedaspyknows QuoteWelshEdge1 They could easily lower ticket prices to the average prices of other stadium bands. And seats on the floor are probably the worst thing ever for a concert. Worst thing? I don't know about that, sounds really good dead center on the floor. Having experienced the pit and seated floor, I way prefer the floor near the front simply because I find that stand

Not sure how the London got in there? I didn't see any mention of London from BV - or is it just wishful thinking from those in the Northern Hemisphere.

Looks like fun! Makes up for having to cancel our NJ tickets, change flights, hotels etc etc. At least we now get a Stones starter before our Chicago shows. Tickets purchased, ready to rock..

QuoteTornAndFried QuoteHarpo I think the original Chicago dates won't work. From what I read the Cirque Du Soleil schedule states they will be at Soldier Field from May 18th thru July 6th, except Mondays. Guess a few days after July 6th could work. The Cirque du Soleil performance tents will be set up in a portion of the parking lot at Soldier Field - not in the stadium itself - so
Forum: Tell Me

If an earlier reschedule is on the cards, looking at Metlife Stadium website, it seems there are free dates between 9 June and 26 July, so original dates would still work. Soldier Field have Cirque du Soleil running through until 23 June, and then 7 July it's booked for Concacaf Cup, then free until 15 July. So allowing 3 days for stage set up etc that allows possible dates from around 26

Went to see her in Auckland this year and was disappointed. The show was much more about lavish sets and costumes than about the music. Short verses of a song, costume change, 4 lines of another song, another costume change. I go to a show to hear the music, not a disney production. Guess I'm just spoiled with the solid shows the Stones put on.

Infuriating that so many people managed to buy tickets who didn't even want them just to resell them at even crazier prices. Been up since 3.30am to queue and then try and buy and so far only scored one lucky dip. Not travelling from New Zealand for crappy seats costing us over NZ$1000 each. It's now 9.30am and I give up, need sleep zzzzzzzzz

Thought I'd never say this, but I'm almost ready to give up on this band. I've spent hours securing (cancellable) hotels and now trying to get decent tickets on the floor in NJ and Chicago nothing less than US $943 which converts to $1300 NZ each ticket. Love the band, but not prepared to pay over $7000 NZ for hubby and I to attend 3 concerts, and thats not including airfares and

Is anyone else outside US able to purchase tickets. TM says that it cannot complete purchase on this device (laptop). Wondering if it's because Im in New Zealand????

Got up at 4am New Zealand time to join the presale, turned on my laptop and sat and waited 1 hour to get to the front of the que, finally found some suitable tickets and went into buy them and got the message, cannot buy from this device, try a different device.

Quotenick Yeah, it's literally right across the street. That road is very busy but it is passable. Bring up the map, you done real good. Thanks Nick, we took a gamble and booked our accommodation before the tour was announced so were lucky to get good prices. Coming over from New Zealand, so wanted to get as much as possible lined up before buying tickets and booking flights. Now just go

We've booked a room in the Hampton Inn Carlstadt which is supposed to be close to the Metlife stadium for the 13th and 17th June (hoping that there will be a second show announced). Does anyone know if you can walk from this hotel to the stadium and if so, approximately how far is it. Also is it a safe area to walk at night.

New York hotels near the stadium tentatively booked in anticipation for both NY dates. Looking forward to hearing of some dates for Chicago. Next thing will be to put together an itinerary and find good value airfares from New Zealand to USA - missed out on UK this year so the excitement is building for USA.

Unfortunately we are not going to be able to make it to any of the dates on this tour. We have prior travel commitments with family late May and again in JUly, so struggle to justify another trip from NZ in June (especially after a mammoth trip to Europe late last year).
