Berlinale's press office have advised me that there will be a screening of the film open to the public the same evening as the premiere (ie, 7th February) (the exact time of which will be announced on January 29 at their website).
Tickets for this can be bought from February 6 on.

Stones...April 2 for the UK!!!
Well what are the "odds" of the old boys making it to NYC on April 4 for the supposed opening of "Shine a Light" in the US? I know a few people who are waiting for this news! |

I can still see, in my minds eye, Martin and his assistant on stage at MSG near Charlie measuring shots, during at least 6 songs, Friday the 20th 2005. It was a most exciting thing to witness. I knew then & there we would be seeing the fruits of that moment....which made me so happy I wanted to shout it to the world. :-) Thanks LJ, for making that moment possible for me.
xxoo,

OMG.
It's the 2 year anniversary of the {{{{Summit of the Century}}}}.
We have to do it again and "Shine a Light" will lead us to it.
LJ.
PS..you are SO welcome Martha. |

well, rs.com advised us they would be there. I guess it'll be a major media blitz that week.
have to say I'm surprised the UK opening appears to be preceding the US one.
Now come on, rs.com - for once, make sure there's an opportunity for the Euro fans to be part of the magic as well as those in the US. |

Oh the excitment and antipation! Stones appearing in Berlin & London! OK you European's are getting them first! So thats a good! But will the movie sell as well in Europe as in the US? I think not, but I hope they announce we'll get an appearance too! |

I dont think it'll sell well at all, to be honest. Concert movies have a very limited commercial appeal these days, and the Stones' 'target' audience tends to be a bit older than the average cinema-goer. The last time they released a concert movie was 25 years ago (LSTNT) and even at that time it didnt do that great either. (The 'At The Max' film was a different proposition entirely because only certain theatres could show it)
I'll be surprised if its still showing in more than a few places after a couple of weeks.

I'm gonna have to make sure I get to see it quickly if your predictions are correct, it won't be the same on DVD. |

There was only one in the UK at that time. In Bradford.
Now try and tell YOUR missus she's got the choice of a week's holiday in either Bradford or Paris...

Sorry, Tommy, but I can't imagine that they'll appear in London on 4/2 and Berlin on 4/7 but come back to the U.S. to play for you in between.... |

Berlin is 7th FEBRUARY, not April.
They WILL be at the NY premiere of the film, according to that info we got from Ultrastar. |

Oh, that's right. So we know it's NY on 3/30 and London on 4/2. Wish we knew more!

A Rocks Off SAL party should go down in NYC! If it's March 30th thats a Sunday so we could get a nice early start! Bloody Marys and Screwdrivers! Is that Easter Sunday? Maybe a walk by Saint Patrick's Cathedral and a little prayer for the hard working people! |

Will we (the true fans) be able to get into the premiere? I'm in if I can do it but I have a feeling that the hoi polloi premiere (i.e. we very people!) will be the following Friday, April 4th. |
