New RS.com App

RS.com is collecting our email addresses again.

I installed the app, gave them my email address, that I'm Debbie Tiger and then up popped a new page with a friend of mine welcoming me to Mexico.  Cool! Then I moved my thumb on the iPad screen and Deb was gone. I went looking for her in the comment section and found Vaughn, but not Deb.

The app lets you IM friends plus it looks like you can start a chat room too.

To find friends and add them to your friend list:

Tap the three bars in the upper left hand corner.
Then tap Friends and Message.
Next tap on the FRIENDS> that looks like it does nothing.
At the bottom of the page tap on Add A Friend.
In the search box type an A and you'll get a list of people with names starting with an A. Go through the alphabet. So far, most letters pop up about four names.

The app also claims there's going to be live streaming. Of what, it's not clear.

Probably that they're going to stop updating the old app. On the bright side, you'll now have two tongue apps on your phone and/or tablet. Smiley

It plays TD clips  over and over


The App will deliver ‘in the moment’ fan experiences including real-time live streaming, updates directly from band members, exclusive content, audio and images, previously unseen archive footage, access to pre-sale tickets (including access to the upcoming Exhibitionism at London’s Saatchi Gallery from 5 April-Sept 2016), VIP packages, special competitions, App-only merchandise, friend-ing and messaging, plus social media aggregation.


I am going to "Friend" Mick and tell him he is the best!!!

Commenting on the announcement, The Rolling Stones said:

“We always strive to give our fans the best experiences possible – our new Official App offers everything Stones-related in one place. It’ll be like having your own AAA pass – everything first, right in your pocket. Right where your money used to be”

If you have the old app, you probably haven't bothered to check it in a very very long time to notice they haven't updated it at all.

This app is partially sponsored by a record label.

I think things are going to get very interesting. New record. Certainly more and more concerts.

In the Settings, one has to choose Apple Music or Spotify to fully experience content that will be posted. It'll be interesting to see what the content will be.

Speaking of giving out email addresses. I wanted a price for something on Wayfair and you have to give them an email first before they let you in. I was pissed so entered "[email protected]" hit entered and up pops "Welcome Back".....lmfao

Wayfair doesn't need an email first. Just click no thanks to the pop up that greets you at the start of your visit.
