From RS.com...

To ensure Rolling Stones fans receive the best possible access to tickets, tickets in the first 10 rows are available at the $101.50 price level. Student tickets are also available at $20.00 off this price category enabling fans with valid student ID to purchase tickets for $81.50 in person only at any outlet. Offer applicable for public sales only, Friday, August 4th with valid ID.

That's $80.00 USD...for the forst 10 rows...sure...it's proboly on the extreme sides...but $80 vs $400???

trivia...according to Wiki...they "also play high school football at Mosaic...holds 28k for football...so about 20k(?)for concerts...twice...and it is still less than Giant stadium...a sign of future times???

Mosaic is scheduled for expansion in the coming years up to 35K permanent seating.
For this concert there will be approx 45 K in attendance with seating on the floor etc.
For the CFL's championship, the Grey Cup, stadium is usually expanded and sold out between 50 and 60 thousand.

taz22 Last year at the show in Ottawa...front row seats were $299.00. Which is still a bargin compaired to US stadium ticket prices.

Maybe this is one of Mr. Cohl's little perks for us Canadian folk!

For most of the shows over the past 3 tours (and may be longer) the first 10 rows have been $100 or less. Not just the sides. In soft markets (see Boston, Chicago, Giants, Halifax on this tour), you can often scalp on ebay in the first 10 rows for less than the face value and charges for the 11 th row on Ticketmaster. I have done it every time for each stadium show I have gone to since Bridges to Babylon.
