Ok so you're putting up again a silly fight. Under grown ups it seems that People tend to be more childish and stupid than ever. First it was the moaning about the set list then about the Long Absence then about ticket Prices and then about everything one is able to compalin. This is our 5th and last concert in the Pit and we were right in front of Mick slightly left. The view was superb. The

Actually this is late, but the Pit in Anaheim was very crowded compare to all other previous Shows we have seen.
Forum: Tell Me

OK I am a bit late. However Anaheim Show surpassed Vegas in miles and Million lightyears I would say. This is the Rolling Stones how I like them to perform Despite the little changes in the set list we got three new Songs and John Mayor was as great as Eric Clapton in London on Champagne and Reefer. I just think this song is made out for the Stones.

I can't agree with all the Statements. This was my 3rd Show in 2013 and the lesser one to. I was expecting high time in Vegas. And for sure the Stones delivered a wonderful Show again. But it did not surpass San Jose or Oakland which I thought it would be. Katie Parry was not the guest one expected. So I don't think it was a good choice. Mick might have liked it, but devine Bette Midler would ha

Just to let you know that San Jose outpassed Oakland by far. Both pit experiences were tremendous. We had first row right in front of Ronnie at both Shows. Took about 900 shots in Oakland and 600 in San Jose. Still don't know how to get them into this page. See you in Vegas on Saturday, We're just on our way to Death Valley. Would love to give more reports, but the Shows go on and time for the

I was first row pit in Oakland Ronnie's side. 900 photos and a very good Memory. The concerts did not Peak London 2, but was intense and the set list great. Guitars were Crystal clear but all in all much to loud for both of us. See you tomorrow night in San Jose.

Sorry but there was never any announcement or any indicative speculation about the fall tour in the US. BV speculated about it that things might happen. But I think for July 13th the Stones will call it quits. I also don't think of any European Dates.

QuoteNoCode0680 I can see that. As somebody who was never alive for the early days, who was born during the era of the sponsored humongo-tours, it's always been part of it for me. Since before I was even a twinkle in my father's eye they have been the embodiment of rock star excess, they pretty much invented it. I've always kind of enjoyed how super rich they were, which when I was younger I j

Once again. I agree with both of you. Still I hope my common knowledge in English gives me the grace to explain this issue in the best way. So many people here are argueing about real fans and not real fans. But is a real fan only real when he is whining that Mick Taylor doesn't play guitar like in 73 and that Ronnie is not the best play and at last he's the poorest but the most real fan? So

This guy is only angry because he can't get in for free. That's the point. I do agree that sales might not be as expected. OK That is fine with me. I agree that ticket prices are much to high on the level 1 and backyerd seas on the floor. However to spill the Sh?? always over Mick Jagger is much to easy.

QuoteDandelionPowderman Quotestonesdan60 So much grousing here about the Stones playing their songs at studio tempo, which is slower than what they used to do live. So what already? These guys are pushing 70. Charlie's older, Ronnie's a bit younger. Who ever thought a few decades past that the greatest rock and roll band in the world would still be touring in 2013??

They must try to find at least something. typical Daily Mail. But one thing is true. In Stockholm in 2003 when we saw them at the Circus you frankly saw Mick getting worn out after a tremendous two hour show. It was unbelievable how he was sweating. He gave us everything he could offer with his voice and body. Remember clearly when Ronnie came up to him after the final tune of Sympathy to indicat

Quotejumpontopofmebaby Just checked again. At this point there is no way the first show will sell out. Will they simply give them away? What about the people that paid the high price for their seats....is it fair to them if the remainding tickes are heavily discounted or given away? I personally feel like a retard for paying the HIGH price now. I actually could have waited and got better

Beast and Straycatuk: of course you can come and go as you please. I just tried to explain that this special VIP counter might be closed. I am pretty sure they can't just cancel your tickets. I just think this timeframe is given that not all the people come 5 to 8 and expect to be in the Pit in time. That is also rather arrogant. At least that is why I am thinking. I hate it when people come l

the reason they take them off was, that the Participants of the Tongue PIT Package and other packages had to be informed 7 days prior to the show. That was a clear remark. It would not make sense to keep such packages until the last day anyway. For Oakland, San Jose, and Vegas the Pit VIP was sold out anyway. I just wonder how many they really sold.... Anyway I am happy for everybody who ha
