Mostly all stadiums except for AC...
I am really curious how this will all go down...
Will stadium shows in the US sell like Europe just did?
I do not want to pay any money for a stadium show. I'm insulted, and pretty pissed at them, especially for screwing over Nor Cal repeatedly, with no club shows here...





Christ think about how I feel working at the two venues they might have played a club gig in SF!! That was heartbreaking to have them rehearse for the no security tour at the Fillmore and then not do a gig there.

They did do the practice gig for the crew and a few lucky folks, my brother in-law was there when he worked for Lars Ulrich... Besides that we've been screwed royally...
As much as I want to see everyone in NYC I don't think I'm going to... AC is a maybe only b/c I can see my family too and won't feel like it's all for this band who doesn't care about the fans anymore...

The rehearsed for about a week on the dance floor of the Fillmore with curtains surrounding them. Everyone that made it into the club heard them but didn't relly see them. I think I will travel only if the Beacon lightning strikes and or maybe Vegas. . .no outdoor venues for me.

Keith is an insensitive asshole to come out with a comment like that, quite frankly..especially in the middle of a truncated European tour thats now going to have a quarter of the amount of shows as they played in North America.

Surprised??? Not me..Keith is a s phony as they come...he tacitly approves everything Mick and Cohkl do regarding ticket prices, dates, etc....his "working class" hero persona is just that, a fake image by one of the wealthiest men in rock n roll.

yep..I've felt that for some time. Blaming Jagger and Cohl is very easy because theyre pretty upfront about their motives, but at the end of the day when it comes to making band decisions, Jagger has one vote out of four. If Keith is in it just for the music as he claims to be, I dont see much evidence of it, to be honest.

I have just had time to review this.

I am HORRIFIED that Keith would say such a thing.

Our European friends have been treated VERY poorly.

Sir Stonesalot Looks like no shows for me.

I just can't get motivated at those prices. The only show that looks interesting to me is AC...and with a seating capacity of only 5000...and fighting all the casino concierges for tix...I don't see how I'd score a ticket for that one.

For the price of a Mezz ticket, I can go to approx 10 other shows...to see bands that still play hard...in a club where you can get so close that the band sweats on you. And I'd probably have more fun at every single one of those 10 shows than I would fighting a huge crowd and sitting 3 miles from the stage like I would at a Stones show.

I love the Stones...but I'm played out with this crap.

We may be not going to shows together. I know I can at least do Oakland and on the cheap, which is how I'll do it.
I'm NOT waving bye to them with a fitsfull of cash... I did that last year! I'm with you on AC... The only show I will travel to would be there... I'll keep in touch and i'll have your DBT package out this week...

100% correct and why I am harder on KR..as you say, we already know how mercenary Jagger and Cohl are; Keith has no credibility as I recall the press conference and he said "take the $ " or something like that to a reporter......And Charlie gets no break for me either, although he never pretended to be looking out for us either....Ronnie has no choice....

Dude, come to LA. I know how to do it in style. We can wander the parking lot drinking Tequila and Gatorade while offering peeps $20 a ticket.

"you can keep the money pal", to be precise! Which was a classic way of avoiding a direct question that any politician would have been proud of!
