Gonna be an epic night. I always thought there was at least an outside chance that my man MT would one day appear onstage again with the Stones. It's happening, and I couldn't be more excited.

What do they open with? Something from the first album? Route 66? Not Fade Away?

Who cares?!

“What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there,” he says. “All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they’re happy. There’s an enormous market for people who can’t tell one note from another.” - Keef

Stones touts get no SEATisfaction
Thousands of pricey tickets unsold for gig

By ANDY CRICK
 
SKY-high prices have left thousands of tickets unsold for tonight’s huge Rolling Stones concert.
The showpiece gig at the O2 arena is meant to kick off the UK leg of a world tour marking the Stones’ 50th year.
But after touts demanded as much as £3,000 fans boycotted it in droves, leaving Mick Jagger and Co with the prospect of playing to a far from sell-out crowd.
Tickets for tonight and a gig on Thursday at the 20,000-capacity venue in Greenwich, South-East London, went on on sale last month for £190 to £400.
Despite being the most expensive for a UK rock gig they sold out within seven minutes. But many were snapped up by secondary ticket agencies like Getmein, Via GoGo, Seatwave and Double8 Tickets which then tried to re-sell them for up to eight times their face value.
The agencies found it hard to get rid of them and by yesterday tickets were being offered for between £229 and £1,500.
More than 100 sets were up for auction on eBay — but some had no reserve price and were up for grabs for just 1p.
Fans blasted high prices on websites, with one named Gazza saying on It’s Only Rock’nRoll: “The mistake the touts made was in buying up tickets which were already overpriced.”
Earlier this month Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood defended the prices saying: “We’ve spent a million on rehearsing and the stage is going to be another few million — and the lights. We’ve got to make something.”

Preach it Gazza! Good thing they didn't quote Joey! (-;

Looking forward to the setlist and reviews, and I hope some decent smartphone vids come of it. Over/under for times MJ says "here's one we haven't played much..." - 4.5

Economics exists on the premise that supply and demand drives the market. Tonight we will see if that still holds true. Hopefully some fans will get the last laugh with cut rate tickets as a scalper takes a bath......
