at Beacon theatre? the Stones are scheduled for nothing from
Sept 16th to Sept 24th, how about a run of lets say 4 or 5 shows at the Beacon Theatre? If they just play 1 show it is completly useless because tickets will be impossible to get |

They will not play a string of shows at a club, not their style. I say zero chance. They enjoy making the club shows "tough to get into" as it gives them a very special feeling. |

yea but they should try something different, it is getting old the same shtick they do, and plus the tour really isnt selling well so maybe a string of shows like this might kick the demand up... |

there is little to no profit in running club shows unless they use a $1500 tickte price as i have suggested. This will not kick demand up, only force the band to work too many "free dates"
We will see a limited number of club dates, no major changes after 42+ years of touring. |

My bet is still no club shows...I know what Cohl said..but he also bs'd about ticket prices....That was done to sell the DVD last time....THIS IS ALL ABOUT THE $$$ and there aint any in a 2000 seater.... |

as much chance as that of Brian rejoining the band
Its not "completely useless" if youre one of the lucky 2 or 3 thousand to get in but a string of shows in one venue is for the reasons that pug says above
There wont be more than about three or four theatre shows on the whole US tour.

The tickets sales are as flat as I've ever seen them for a Stones concert...Keith always says we'll play as long as them come, well keith, this may be your last hurrah.... |

You guys keep forgetting about Charlie
He isn't up for that many shows anymore
If he is going to do a show why not pick up a cool
$Mil compared to $30,000? |

maybe after this tour is over the Stones can lose there stupid management and try to get back to there roots, and just play a bunch of shows at clubs and make sure the fans will get in and no tickets will go to brokers, I mean what the hell do they need all this money for? And wouldnt they enjoy playing a club rather then a 80,000 seat stadium? |

Tele, he's committed to a tour so I have a feeling he'll show up wherever he's flown/driven to. But I don't think Mick wants to do it. I'd love a string of shows at the Garden. It's been years since that's been done. |

I hear ya Glencar
Remember, Charlie and Mick are the hardest working people in the band
Charles never gets a break
I fear he feels worse then he is letting on
I am sure his wife ain't so happy about this either |

The only way to cut back on the tix brokers is to maintain high tix prices which we all squawk about. |

I'm just glad he hasn't been roped into appearing on "Kept." Bill Wyman looked like a fool. |

So you are saying you will go to work tomorrow for 3 percent of what you could go to work for?
Doubt it
The Stones don't break even until about the 25th show on their US tour |

what makes you think the Stones would have any interest in pulling off a string of epic shows that would quite possibly go down as one of the most extraordinary stands in their fabled history when they can simply just run around the country miking their fans by playing bloated stadium shows instead??? |
