3/20/2015 10:06:14 AM

$1000? lol no

3/20/2015 1:14:29 PM

Is that a serious number for prices? Or are you just guessing?

3/20/2015 1:22:10 PM

I've never been a big fan of the Stone until the past 2-3 years. I've really gotten into the Mic Taylor era. I've listened to a lot of recent shows with Bobby Keys. I'm really impressed that they still sound really good.

I may have to suck it up and go see them.

3/20/2015 7:16:24 PM

Where did you hear this, Tim?

The latter, obviously.

^Yea, you say that, but this is likely the last time they'll tour, and they know they can get $$$ from people because of it.

3/21/2015 6:13:11 PM

Mick Jagger is 23 years older than Carter Finley Stadium.

3/22/2015 1:35:56 AM

I went and saw them when they played Wallace Wade in 2005, paid somewhere around $130 for a seat. I dont know how familiar any of you are with the stadium, but our seats were literally on the top row, with our backs to the parapet wall separating the seats from the concourse area. I cant imagine how much the lower seats were, we essentially had the worst seats in the house

The show was pretty 'meh', I took it as an opportunity to see the Stone play, but I'd never pay to see them play again

3/22/2015 2:22:25 PM

I was there too. I had a job selling t-shirts with my former high school teacher. She was really cool and let us take long breaks to watch some of the concert. I don't remember it being a particularly epic show or anything.

3/22/2015 2:33:56 PM

I saw them in 2005 and I will see them this year. I mean its the fucking Stones; as close to a religious experience as Ill ever get.

3/22/2015 10:11:25 PM

^ what about your Klan rallies?

If you'd like to place a wager on that amount, I'll take your bet, and even give you odds.

3/23/2015 12:42:42 PM

wait...

3/23/2015 7:45:57 PM

wtf is that?

The durham show was great.

Raleigh date officially announced this morning.

Now it's time to find an american express card holder...

Jebus only like 2 months late with that announcement. Guess you really do need to move slower when you're old.

3/31/2015 9:29:45 AM

Looks like tickets start at around $70 and go up to $350, according to TM

You can also go tailgate out in the lots and listen to the show for $free.99

3/31/2015 9:36:33 AM

^I'd gladly pay $350 for some good seats.

3/31/2015 9:38:15 AM

I'm hoping the $350 tickets are some sort of VIP thing, and not just for tickets

But it's probably just the tickets

3/31/2015 10:19:58 AM

I could see on the floor near the stage being $350.

Mick needs some retirement funds, yo.

3/31/2015 10:34:13 AM

tailgating would be fun!

4/1/2015 1:13:19 AM

Front row tix are $1600

$250+ most other tickets it seems

[Edited on April 8, 2015 at 10:11 AM. Reason : see ya in the parking lot]

4/8/2015 10:07:02 AM

I watched "Gimme Shelter" recently. It was great.

4/8/2015 10:33:02 AM

$1600 to see some 70 year olds dance around

4/8/2015 10:41:02 AM

My parents are dead set on going to this concert and taking me, my girlfriend and my sister along with them.

4/8/2015 11:41:58 AM

I won't be there, but a ton of my friends will be

vicarious living for this guy

4/8/2015 7:46:11 PM

sprung for the cheap seats ($99). I would have been tempted to get in the first 5 rows... but that would put me alone (well, without friends) during the show

4/9/2015 10:03:13 AM

Avett Brothers are opening

5/19/2015 6:09:21 PM

man i want to go see them in Orlando on June 12th, but the person i was going with backed out

Stones show is kind of a bucket-list thing, I think...and playing all of Sticky Fingers is a bonus.

5/19/2015 10:22:29 PM

Fuck it man.

Go solo if you must.

5/20/2015 8:46:24 AM

Where would be the best parking spot to tailgate and not go in?

5/27/2015 12:24:15 AM

I just found out the Avett Brothers are opening (didn't see synapse's post above) so I'm definitely going now. Will be my third AB show and second Stones.

6/8/2015 2:19:57 PM

Still trying to figure out with first come first serve parking if we can park where we want or if they will force us in a spot?

6/25/2015 5:18:10 PM

From experience during past events, they guide you to different parking zones, based on your entry point.

6/25/2015 6:50:56 PM

I would assume tailgating in stadium southeast would be best place to hear the concert and tailgate right? I doubt they let cars into the RV lot or murphy center lot. That being said we are showing up at 4PM and I saw that if you come off youth center it goes in that direction, I just don't want to be sent all the way to stadium east is all.

Concessions

A variety of Coke products along with bottled water will be available. In addition, there will be hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza, popcorn, pretzels, cotton candy, lemonade and other items available for purchase.

Alcohol will not be sold at the event.

6/29/2015 11:07:49 AM

lol wtf State. did they sell alcohol at U2 when they came a couple years ago?

6/29/2015 11:47:56 AM

That's okay, tailgating is more entertaining anyway. Going with a big group of friends (and parents), and we'll be splitting up for the show. Better to get a solid buzz on outside and ride it out during the show.

no.

6/29/2015 1:09:41 PM

they told me if the spot I wanted was available I could have it in stadium southeast, however I bet when I pull in they make me park somewhere else.

6/29/2015 9:57:29 PM

I'll be there!!

6/30/2015 3:53:08 PM

^^In an article I read online, it said that law enforcement will direct you into the lot of THEIR CHOOSING upon your arrival.

6/30/2015 4:01:15 PM

they will be directing people into specific lots so they can control flow of traffic. you want to split traffic evenly to all lots in order to avoid massive backups. the problem is with gps's everyone comes the same way in so one area is slammed packed, but the other lots/roads are a lot less congested. same with outgoing traffic - it will hopefully be evenly spread between all exit points.

6/30/2015 4:55:05 PM

I can't find anyone willing to drop the ~$80 to get a ticket and go with me

6/30/2015 5:23:16 PM

How was the show people?

^ How did that work out for u?

7/2/2015 12:06:45 AM

absolutely amazing

especially for the price of $free

7/2/2015 12:55:08 AM

Had a blast! Good to hear them do Shine a Light. Loud as fuck, though; my ears are still ringing.
