Just got this notice...Tickets still  $113.00-$831.00...(not that I am surprised).

Now the rest of Wall Street that got shut
out of Newark can go!!!

So happy  for them!!!

I feel bad for the folks in the Hamptons...Brooklyn is still 100 miles away...All the private helicopters will get booked up straight away.

The Stones should play a pity gig out there for them...

Here we go again! A race to the presale and the onsale! I'll try for a ticket.

I wonder who is paying the Stones for this gig.  That 25 mill was for 4 shows....eh. Who cares. The Stones are on the road.

I wonder how many thousands of tickets for THIS show will be available a few hours after it's 'sold out'

Surely there's a limit as to how stupid scalpers can be?

I would love it if the tickets don't sell out at these prices.

DO YOU THINK THE STONES (OR SHOW SPONSORS)ARE PART OF THE SECONDARY TICKET MARKET,I.E. STUBHUB?IT WOULD SEEM THE ONLY WAY THE SHOWS MAKE FISCAL SENSE.

They probably needed the fifth show so that they could make a profit as, according to Ronnie, 'the stage cost millions'

Something's got to give.

This show takes place just three weeks after it goes on sale.

It shouldnt be anywhere near as hard a ticket to get as Newark for the simple reason that less scalpers (if they have any sense) are going to take a chance on re-selling an already extortionately priced ticket at such short notice, especially when there are about 5-8,000 Newark tickets still available for re-sale.

Another possible knock on effect should be that the arse will fall out of the secondary market for the Newark shows. They're already struggling to sell tickets above face value for the Newark and London gigs and now that there are suddnely 20,000 tickets up for grabs for a Saturday night show in New York, the asking prices for those Newark tickets may be about to plummet.

Saturday night rock and roll shows are the best.

Not to mention how hard the area was hit with the hurricane and everybody is struggling to deal with that. Paying atronomical amounts for a rock show aren't as high a priority as getting your power back on.

People have credit cards. I don't think the hurricane is going to prevent a lot of people from getting tickets. You no longer have to camp out for them. If it doesn't sell out in one minute, it will be two.

more stupid buyers. If you buy 10 or 20 pairs of great seats, and sell them for 23 times or more the face value, you can still eat half and make money... and you won't eat them, one way or another, the corruption is so entrenched, i'm sure there's buy backs, face value last minute sales, or even if you sell under face or whatever...

it should be a free show for all the emergency workers who helped during/after the hurricane.

Good press to be had!

I learned to play guitar, not for the chicks and drugs, but for the good press.
said no musician ever!!!

All the old blues cats did it for the money. Anyone who plays an instrument wants to get money from it.

Accoeding to RS.com there is a VIP Package presale going on right now. On RS.com there are people tweeting they already have tickets for Brooklyn! I go to TM and I see nothing avalable yet. So how is this possible?

I dont think they felt the compulsion to own all the money in the world, though!  ;D

Maybe!  I listened to the Hooker and Heat album recently and John Lee Hooker said that if the label wants a triple album then it's going to be triple the money. Everyone in the studio got a laugh.

Fck Mick Jagger..what a twat. After reading this article on the pricing, fck him....he doesn't get a cut of the secondary market, so that's why tix are priced the way they are.

I'm more excited to see Phish in MSG at the end of December, at least their guitarist doesn't have someone filling in most of the parts.  :forfucksake

There are plenty of Phish boards in which you can post.

:nomames

Your panties in a wad?

No, I just mean if you are more excited to see another band, go post on their sites.

I got my friend 4 tix, she doesn't have an amex. Unfortunately they are literally the last row 1/2 way back on Keith's side. $177 with fees for last row, isn't that a kick in the ass.  :pullanolte

If your friend doesnt need all four tickets I'd be happy to get in at this price. No Amex here either.

Those tickets were accounted for before I got them. They are having a Facebook pre-sale today @ 12pm https://www.facebook.com/therollingstones

Why the Fu.k is Facebook in on everything?......Damn I hate that shit

I just got this update from the Paul Weller Camp...

Next summer Weller will hitting the road in the UK for three special outdoor shows.

The gigs will see Paul play in some of the country's most beautiful settings - Thetford Forest, Delapre Park & Westonbirt Arboretum.

Tickets for the shows will cost £39 and go on sale from 9am on Friday 23rd November.

For those who don't know Paul...he is one of the UK's most popular solo artists and sells out arenas and headlines festivals all over Europe...

The point...39 effin pounds...THIRTY NINE!!!!

Just venting...go on...nothing to see here folks...

A buddy of mine pulled a pair of "GOLD VIP HOT SEATS"

They were in section 223... for $$$950 EACH. Over $2k for the pair!!!

Thats in the highest section of the building. Looking at ants.

Criminal!

Gold VIP tix are in the upper level.

What a joke.



Assholes.

No luck for me on TicketMaster so I'll probably buy one on StubHub, thousands are available. At this point I'll wait to the last minute so the price drops, hopefully! This is becoming a game of chess.

I haven't been able to pull a ticket on Ticketmaster in forever. Damn thing is rigged against me.

This is how things will be from now on. The old days are over unless Ticketmaster isn't in the loop. This is the first time since 1994 that I've been shut out of gigs at a reasonable price. I think Ticketmaster would pay any price to handle tix for the 2013 shows.

Stones are bigger than Ticketmaster.

They can do this without them.

They dont care. Greedy fucks having one last go of taking advantage of us.

Mary J Blige and Gary Clark, Jr have been confirmed as special guests for the show in Brooklyn this Saturday.

sorry gotta ask...who is Gary Clark Jr?........

Didn't know too, this is his official website and his last album is "Blak and Blu" spelled that way

http://www.garyclarkjr.com/

He will be a very nice addition! Happy to hear this.  :weed

He's a young guitarist who has played with Clapton and BB King - so he might have some good blues chops!!!

Any "offical" comment on whether or not Mick Taylor will be there??

Bill and Mick better be at all of these shows. The fans are paying enough money.

Yes, Gazza, I would venture to say that the stupidity of scalpers has a limit.
The stupidity of Stones Fans, however, knows no bounds whatsoever and is usually the horse that the scalpers bet and win on.......

:blankfriggingstare1

Gary Clark Jr is the real deal.
He performed at the White House Gala earlier this year.
He is very able to stand on his own.

There was nothing promised of this nature in advance for any of these shows. You're paying through the arse to see the current version of the Stones.


Anything else is a bonus - or distraction, depending on your opinion of guest artists.

He is a fantastic guitarist , we saw him during the White House set .

I have more than 10 bootlegs from him , the guy is incredible !!

He rehearsed with the Stones last night. I'm looking forward to YouTube clips of this gunslinger trading blues riffs with the band!

I will be there

WIth Electronic tickets, the last minute drop isn't here yet.  Stay positive!  Also, check TM early tomorrow morning.  There is a basketball game at Barclay's tonight so they haven't set up any of the stage yet.  Maybe some seats will come available.

ok tomorrow morning ~ I'll give it ONE MORE SHOT!

Thatta Girl - and then I'll see you tomorrow night!

Yes,my Golden State Warriors kicked some Brooklyn ass last night! :willya  :pullanolte

Yeah and as it turned out, I did cry, outside the arena, when the show started and I couldnt get in. Not an out-loud cry, but tears were rolling down my face that I couldnt hold back. The patrol cops even felt sorry for me. I was inconsolable.
