So I'm curious to know what cities the RO fanzoids will be traveling to for No Stopping.

I'm in for Edinburgh with Lucky Dips on the cheap! I guess I'm gonna have to try Scotch Whiskey. Any recommendations?   Cool

Don't they export Scotch to the US?  Grin

I'll be in Dublin*  (* subject to licence) and Twickenham

Dublin will probably be LD. Twickenham is GA.

Passport has run out so it is just London, London and Twickenham for me this time.  Gold Circle but will continue to seek out Pit Bs.

It took me a minute to get this...LOL

I am hoping that the LD leprechauns give me some luck for Dublin...never been...and besides...Gazza has been begging to buy me a few pints and this can be his big opportunity...

Waiting on the neighborhood council to give the OK...

I keep a bottle of 18 year old Glenlivet in my booze cabinet!

I have tickets for both London Stadium shows (Golden Circle for the 22nd and lower stands right next to the stage -section 131- for the 25th). Flying into Dublin on the 16th. If for some reason, that show doesn't happen, I'll enjoy hanging out there!

The Stones PR team screwed up by releasing No Stopping signs. Everyone thinks that's the name of the tour.  They need to get it together and come up with some new names.

Yeah they have Scotch here but I always thought it was an old man's drink, and it smells bad. I was reading about Edinburgh and they specialize in that stuff so I'm thinking I should try it. What brand is good?

It's a matter of personal taste, and don't let anybody tell you different.
Blended vs. Single Malt and many different categories (or types) with in....

....but remember, vodka, tequila, bourbon, rum, gin etc. ...they get you drunk, while scotch gets you high Grin

I would recommend Talisker....but I would say that it's one of my personal favourites. The last time I visited the Isle of Skye I made a point of doing the Talisker Distillery Tour... to say I was in my happy place is an understatement.

Seriously though, try afew different distillery single malts until you discover one that suits your palate.
The taste is all grain, soil & cask dependent.

ALRIGHT, scored a pit ticket for Prague, Keith's side!  Cool
This is beyond awesome. This is crazy. I can't believe it went so smooth, no disconnections from TicketPro this time, wow. Smooth for me at least - there was a queue before the tickets even went on sale, I logged in, and when the tickets were released I had 46 seconds left before the system would log me out. I don't think I've ever been faster doing anything online  Grin

Lots of others having severe difficulties getting tickets, the queue is now 2 hours or something.  Sad

Well. On to fighting fear of flying!  Grin

CZECHS COLLAPSE TICKET SERVER FOR ROLLING STONES CONCERT


Massive interest in purchases of Rolling Stones concert tickets for a Prague performance caused the sales server to collapse.

The booking site collapsed under the pressure within minutes of opening for business on March 9. Buyers had to be redirected to a second site where they were warned that they might have to wait in line for up to two hours.

The Rolling Stones are due to play in Prague as part of their No Filter tour on July 4.

The band set a Czech record in 1995 when around 130, 000 attended their Prague performance in a sports stadium.

My insider intel says
"It is suspected that the LUCKY DIP partition was unresponsive and caused the bottlnecking /  blocked threads issue on the server"

The venue is not great anyway...a re-purposed airport...

At this point, I'd go see them even if they played at a re-purposed waste treatment facility  Grin

It was really an epic mess trying to get tickets for Prague, I guess what you said might explain it. Still can't believe I got lucky.

It took 10 min for the LUCKY DIP radio button to appear this morning...but it finally showed up.

Got my ticket to Dublin...statistically...I should be able to see 1 or 2 songs that the second half of the tour wont get to see

Now to re-ask Bitches question...now that all shows are up and available...

WHO HAS TICKERS FOR WHAT SHOWS?!?
