LOL Josh, again boasting of ignorance, you are the kind of lawyer that make them have the fame that they can talk about everything but ignore all.
I’m gonna give you some facts
Mexico City is on the tour list of almost any major act.
It is a gold mine for tour promoters: The most expensive prices and all sold-out shows.
A very good example is when Peter Gabriel opened the 2002-2003 tour here: check the following facts:
- The highest prices of the whole tour.
- The only three-stops city in the whole tour.
- The biggest audience 30,000+.
- The fastest sold out, even that it was for the biggest amount of tickets and at the highest prices.
- No full stage (the one designed by Peter Gabriel and Robert Lepage) well at least we had the Growing Up sphere and the Barry Williams filming routines.
- No opening acts.
- No Blind Boys or any other guest on stage.
Peter management cancelled shows at MSG, Atlanta was postponed, etc etc Check this for more facts http://www.rocksoff.org/pg-index.htm
You can see a lot of Mexican fans wearing a Stones t-shirt on the streets, bars, discos, rock concerts, football matches and they are from the riff-raff to the high class but you can’t hardly see someone wearing a Peter Gabriel tee or a Genesis tee... and we made the most $ucce$full $how$ for Peter
Even Thalía a Mexican singer of pop with a big success in the USA us wearing a Stones tongue in her last video.
We are not “like a rolling stone” we are rolling stones in the essence, so be sure it will be another sold out
Another example is when we brought Mick Taylor to play here, it was the show sold at the most expensive prices and it was the show with the biggest audience. Check this for more http://www.rocksoff.org/micktaylor-spanish.htm
Want more examples?
U2 and many others sold out in minutes, U2 sold out was their record and as far as I remember it still the fastest sold out, that show made it in an official release.
Small acts are also here, Jethro Tull will be touring this year four cities including a 10,000 venue at $150 USD a ticket when they can’t hardly sold out a hard rock café in the USA, but the curious thing is that they were here last year, check this website for details http://rocksoff.org/jethrotull-mexico2004.htm
Also in 2001 Elton John played a benefit show at "Castillo de Chapultepec" and tix sold at 10,000 USD yes ten thousand dollars see this if you have doubts http://www.senado.gob.mx/comunicacion/content/boletines/2001/b9octubre.html
Voodoo Lounge stop here was for 4 stadium shows, then during the B2B we had the biggest stop in the whole history of Stones tours, having rehearsals, shooting videos, press conferences, etc
Now you say we can't sell out just one show?
Come on!!! |

You can find exchange rates everywhere and about your tee-shirt you need to pay upfront $900 USD and that's because of your uncalled comment and off-topic reply overthere
I'm quoting you LOL

They would have perfromed In Mexico during Licks had it been as profitable as you predict. At just under 5000 Pesos per ticket to equal the price of tickets sold in the Large US markets, they will not be able to sell that many tickets at that price. While the audiences in Mexico are some of the most enthusiastic and involved, they will not sell out at 5K Pesos per ticket. I predict a definite sellout at a much lower rate, perhaps 800-1000 pesos each. |

it is approximately 10.6 pesos to the dollar
in my business i offer NET 30 credit terms to established/trusted customers. I vouch for jb's credit and suggest using these terms. I know for fact that josh has a solid history of settling debts public and private and is active in charities! |

The shows in Mexico City for the Licks Tour were booked and scheduled but since Argentina declined the shows were put on hold and then cancelled.
Also the fact that no NEW studio album was not released was another reason, but the first was the actual one.
The prices had been always the same or higher I don't why now that we have a stronger economy (in the first ten of the world) we need to sell the tix cheaper |

i recall the argentina issue, but the lack of a new album was not a factor. Licks was the largest, most ambitious tour they have ever taken (see five shows in Chicago and New York). If everything could have been worked out, they would have played Mexico City. I hope the Feb 2006 concert goes on as planned...many fans in Mexico missed a great tour (Licks) |

Good luck Voodoo...I really hope they perform in Mexico City as you deserve it. Will the recent Hurricane damage be a factor? |

LOL Voodoo, if you see my unedited post I was clear about it: but the first was the actual one that was the only reason, the other was just initial especulations but the reason to cancel was the above-mentioned |

It shouldn't have been mentioned at all, those who speculated that have shown clear ignorance and must be called out. Sadly, if an loyal stones man such as yourself heard these rumors...there must be many who though that!
Cheers!
We are hoping they add a third and fourth show in Chicago! |

Altough I'm in Mexico too, please give me some money because my economy is not in the first ten of the world, it's in the 1,000,000th as well as the 100 million mexicans except you.
In other hand, I think there will be just one show in Mexico, to pay more than 40 USD for a concert is expensive for most of the mexicans, including for a stones concert.
