Topic: March Show at Radio City Music Hall? Return to archive

purrcafe Does anyone have any info on this? It is listed as "rumoured" on the IORR tour page, and there is some conjecture that it could be a very expensive show for charity.

tumblingdice01 I attended the Fan Asylum package on 20 Jan at MSG. I was told by the coordinator that the Radio City Hall will be priced at $7,000 per ticket! They better give a really good receipt for charity!

purrcafe Oh boy. I guess any fantasy of attending that one just flew out the window!

glencar I'm going! Who's with me?

Gazza the show, if it comes off, will be for the Robin Hood Foundation. Those events are traditionally a very expensive ticket

If the rumoured ticket price is correct, it will be somewhat appropriate for the Stones to play a gig for a charity named after someone who was most famous for robbing the rich...

monkey_man That's an awful lot of dough to pay for a 5900 seat, theater show. It's one thing for a club when you can move around and get closer to the stage but to pay all that money and be stuck in the back row of Radio City??? If they change their mind and play at a club, I would definitely consider paying big bucks for that!

Maxlugar There will be a Summit.

It will be a bitter-sweet, no one getting into the show summit, but it'll be a summit...

Gazza LOL...good idea

I could fly over business class, stay a few days in a 5-star hotel, get drunk with you lunatics and fly home - and it would still work out cheaper than the concert ticket...

Maxlugar I'll start fluffing the pillows down in the STaCdM!!!!

gimmekeef I can see it now....Special Radio City fanclub ($500)...a ticket for $7000....Convenience fees of $800....Delivery of $100.....Hotel $600...Airfare $1000....Booze $2500....Heck that would make Robin Hood look like a shoplifter in comparison....This should not happen....If they want to support the foundation great....just write a check from the $170 plus million everyone has paid already...

Maxlugar Word, Gimmeekeith.

Let's just hope Radio City Music Hall doesn't get "Omaha'ed".

(FYI, Omaha'ed" is the new term for mailing it in, with a standard set list)

gimmekeef Gee for my $10,000 I'd would have to hear Miss You for the 10,000th time!....For the corporate types paying that amount ..really the only appropriate rarity would be.."In Another Land"

indeed...THEY arent 'supporting' the foundation...the schmucks paying several grand a head for an "Omah'ed" show are.

Donate a fucking cheque and play a few theatre shows for us at $50 a ticket instead - as you promised 8 months ago.
