Dude, if this is how the 2013 gigs are going to be, I think people will revolt.

Don't think so! 02 sold out pretty fast, maybe this 2 sold out faster then in 2007.
If you'll agree on a nosebleed for 400 quid, we'll keep on getting this prices. It's the fault of the stones and promoters who set this prices, and the cow's who are willing to pay high prices for bad/ lousy seats

each to their own I guess. Yep, I paid top dollar for my 2 tickets but i'm happy with the result and the seats. Floor and Level 1. Pretty happy too that the exchange rate between the AUD and GBP is a hell of alot better than 5 years ago so Ive theoretically paid the same as I did last time.
I do agree with alot that has been said and yes, the prices are steep and I aint no millionaire but I love the stones and I need a holiday, its a good excuse for me, works well.

Babs is charging big money for her tickets as well. 75-800 bucks is what I'm seeing.

This is what the Stones have come to. Trying to match Barbra fucking Streisand.

I can't remember if it was the Stones or Macca but about 10 years ago someone was wondering what they would be charging and they used Barbara Streisand as a comparison and saying that she was an old (sic) woman and that if she could charge $300 (I think it was at the time), the Stones (or Macca) could certainly do it too...

Had to go to one of the 2 after the amount of times I missed out on tickets in the past due to a previous career. Looking forward to seeing some of you at the Pilot.

Good for you and anyone else who wanted to do it badly enough and was able to do so. I'm sure you'll have a blast.

Hopefully Gazza will get his hands on a ticket. Gazza needs to go! After 5 years of keeping the Stones spirit alive on this board, GAZZA deserves a comp ticket! The Stones should put his name on the guest list!
