Rolling Stones...

There's always a bit of handy fudging going on with shows these days. I do get a little surprised when I see some shows on a run all advertised as sell-outs with the odd one that doesn't get over the line.

 

Case in point, Springsteen in 2016. Every UK date bar Manchester was deemed a sell-out.

My parents went to one of those back in the early 1980s.

 

Ticket was £12.50 - high end for those days, probably less than the price of a meal with a drink in the stadium's concession stands now.

In June 1982 I saw Queen at the Milton Keynes bowl on the 5th, Simon & Garfunkel at Wembley Stadium two weeks later, and The Stones at Wembley a week after that. I was a schoolboy, paying for it via pocket money and my paper round.

Not sure the Stones would fill a north east stadium, there’s a reason why you mostly near certainty sell out acts up here. There just isn’t the catchment.

I need to stop posting on here on my phone, without wearing my glasses!
