Hi Folks,
I normally don't post here, but I thought i'd let you all in on something:
I'm a Theatre major at Indiana University, and I just got cast in my first mainstage show at the school, which is a great thing for me. But sadly I have to give up my ticket to the October 11th, 2006 show at Soldier Field
TICKET DETAILS:
---------------
Section B3
Row 16
Seat 10.
This is a good ticket, so I've been told if you want to immerse yourself in the B-stage experience.
I paid $475, but I'd be willing to let it go for $400 or your best offer.
My e-mail is available if you wish to contact me!
Thanks!
I could really use your help here, folks. I'm in a bad spot and need some suggestions and any help you might have on how to get this ticket to someone who could use it, or if I could trade it for another show, anywhere in the US in late October or November.
I really appreciate your help! |

try posting this on www.shidoobee.com and www.iorr.org as well, plenty of stones fans frequent those sites as well.
Offering a trade for a different show is not a bad idea as well. I will keep my ears open for you.

Thanks John,
I posted on IORR
I guess I would be interested in trading it for a seat at Atlantic City |

it used to be open similar to Paris Hilton's legs, now It is only about as open as Kobe Bryants marraige....(aka not as wide open as before, but still some available). |

You have created a post praising "Streets of Love"......Sadly, your credibility is threatening to head towards "From Ian" territory. |

Anybody who has seen the song live admits it's much better than on the CD. Don't be a victim of your prejudice. Seriously. |

It may be better live than it is on the record, but from the recordings I have heard, it may go from a 1.0 on a scale of 100 to a 1.9 on a scale of 100.
Don't be a victim of wishing for a setlist change and then salivating at any little change. SOL is the worst song on the new album, and one of their worst ever (with apologies to "Anyway You Look At It", "Back to Zero", "Gomper" and others). There were hundreds of other/better choices to add to the rotation. Expectations are being set far too low if this is what gives fans renewed interest in seeing the Stones live. |

I actually think BM is worse than SOL. SOL is a classic ballad. I quite like it. Why they didn't do it over here last fall is a mystery. |

I like BM better, the two from ABB that I dislike are SOL and DB. I think the reason they didnt do it in the US is because SOL was released as the "worldwide" single and Rough Justice was the "US" single. They opted, and sadly, ultimately dropped, to play Back of My Hand as the slower paced new song during the early stretches of the tour. By the time they changed up the ABB songs (aside from the rare appearance from It Wont Take Long), they went with the new single, Rain Fall Down (See: The Salt Lake Incident).
It didnt help when Stonesdoug, universally respected and accepted as one of the most knowledgeable and influential stones fans, said it sucks, especially since it is well known that the band and/or their reps read his site and this one:
"It absolutely SUCKS!!!!
Thank God for Rough Justice---that's the only song I'll be listening to this week-end"

There are dozens of other balads i would rather see on the setlist when I see a few shows this fall. |

Rain Fall Down was especially well done at Twickenham. |

I consider Doug a friend of mine and shall acknowledge that his opinion means something to the stones. Doug (along with Voodoo and Gazza) allowed me to promote my old band.
Please find a new strategy to posting, you are beginning to look like Motley Crue out here today! |

Yes, I'm sure the Stones care what any of us have to say. Laughable. |

Note: Sway and Can't You Hear Me Knocking was played on the last two tours after they were voted "most wanted song to hear live" on Shidoobee and they finally were inserted into the setlists. I tend to think that the supporting musicians care a great deal about the boards as it was Chuck who pushed to alter the setlists. |

I'll grant that's possible but I can't see them refraining from playing a song just because a board manager doesn't like it. The Stones don't react like that. Otherwise, we'd be hearing fewer warhorses & more gems. |
