Just tried pulling up a pair 15 mins in to sale.Nothin.But using Amex number you can get floors.If you have Amex Gold Card try code 8003272177....Good Luck. |

All gone....may have sold out in less than 5 mins?...Truly a record that all astute NY Ticket brokers and scalpers can be proud of.Even Amex is all gone now..(note in future for Amex you must use all ten digits including the "1"...Be very careful buying tickets for this show from Ebay or other sources.The NY area has excellent copying techniques for MSG shows..I bought 2 in 97 and until I got in to MSG and found out they were fake I couldnt tell difference..you'd swear they were perfect.(Luckily had real tix for next night..but was expensive lesson).So friends be very wary! |

got floor thru the Amex sale really late - 20 past. Prior to that I passed on $180 tix in the upper 300 section BEHIND the stage. Man... it sucks being a Stones fan.
as far as fakes... yeah I had a friend buy 2 pairs on the street outside of MSG. They looked IDENTICAL to the tix I had. Turned out to be really well made fakes.
Lesson. Don't buy from who you dont know.

Definitely some electronic hijinks surrounding this one. I got on literally at 9:00 AM on the dot, and there were already no 103.00 or 64.00 dollar seats left at all. The best I could have done was one 400.00 seat. I passed. This sucks, but I'm hoping for a post-sale from the fan club. If not, there's always January. |

I had the same experience as purrcafe. On at 9am on the dot, no $64 or $103 tix.
Bullshit. I don't think there were any....or perhaps there was 4 of each. Totally fucked. |

Really, it's a fucking embarrassment. In 24 years I've never been shut out of a Stones show. Let me sum it up in two words: wide-spread fraud!

there are just so many games played with these tickets. In a perfect world, they would all go on sale at one time, from front row to obstructed view and all be sold first come first serve, but sadly they release them in different stages. I have found that i have had the most luck getting tickets around 10:20 then at 10:00 during the onsale. it is truly irritating. My advice is to keep trying! They intentionally do this to create hype for a ticket, if someone is searching for ten minutes and cant find anything, then all of a sudden a pair comes up, even at a high price, many will jump on it thinking this may be their only chance. It saddens me! |

What really saddens me is that The Rolling Stones don't give a fuck. They get theirs. The rest of us can all fuck off.
And don't tell me that at Jagger doesn't know what is going on in his name. And if he really doesn't know....then double shame on him. |

Jagger knows. But don't forget Richards, Watts and Wood. |

The pre-sale is really the only chance most of us seem to have at getting tix. |

I was pulling great singles in those close side sections all morning--62, 71, 63, etc. All for 454 bucks, but I know that section is such a great spot to see the band. YOu are practically on eye level and seem very close. Better than upfront on the floor--I been there too. So, I bought a few......... |

Yeah, I had one chance at a $454.00, but I just can't justify that. That I was shut out of what would have been affordable to me at 9:00.01, I dunno. It's the luck of the draw, but really very disappointing. |
|
|
| Sir Stonesalot |
I don't think it's even luck of the draw. We wuz screwed.
Something rotten happened yesterday morning. I think either the brokers found a way to beat Ticketmaster, or Stones Inc is guilty of ticket inventory manipulation to ensure that the most expensive tickets go first. And if they can sell out at $454 and $189 then there won't be any $103 and $64 tickets....or only a very minimal amount of them.
Either way we got fucked over. |

I think you're right in both regards.

and those very front floor sections never even went on sale--the brokers arent even listing them. MSG or Cohl is holding 1-4 back for some reason, and only a few in the next floor sections were released. All the crappy 454 tickets were released so far. It is so fucked up anymore. I miss the old days of standing in line at 4 am. |

Think of the insanity of that . . . "the crappy 454 tickets." In all my years of loving the Stones, the way these tickets went this is the biggest disappointment for me. |

Hardly any of you guys who wanted to go may have got a ticket but that leaves more drinking time at YOTI this time as no one will be leaving early to go to MSG....
In some ways its cool that the Stones have arranged ticket distribution for this tour in such a way that their fans cant get into their concerts but can divert more of our money to drink more beer in the pre-show fan parties instead.
What other band would be so forward thinking as to make such cool arrangements for their fanbase? |

Also very good of them to consider that scalpers need to make a living too. |
