He said himself that he’s going Silver Hayes in the Friday then a few other sets (as usual) over the weekend.

Silver Hayes that's the one. Yeah Friday as I remember thinking it's Billie vs FBS for me.

That is a really great gig for English Teacher. 

My first thoughts on it too. Hard working band, deserve this kinda opportunity.

[Hugh Jass II]

No sign of that RAH gig that was rumoured for the Stones. 

[nikkic]

Damn those YYY’s dates rule me out I think, on a stag the weekend before.

Hoping new music means a bigger tour later in the year.

Don't think it was ever going to be announced at the same time as the rest of the tour to be fair. 

It might be in the week following the second Hyde Park gig, or it'll be later in the year once the Proms have finished.

Yeah I wasn't really expecting it, more looking for gaps where it could fit in.

The week after the second HP dates looks possible (RAH is free all that week too)

How hard will it be to get Stones tickets for Anfield in either main or presale? I'd take standing, seating or lucky dip if it's available. I'm guessing they'll be way more demand than supply so has anyone had any experience in buying them before? Thanks.

I reckon you'll be fine. The 2018 tour hardly flew out the door.

Oh thank fuck I was right about YYYs

Yeah, £400 for a standing ticket or cheap £100 ticket behing a pillar at the top of the staduim means alot of folk have got to save up first. Yet people are complaining Yeah Yeah Yeahs or Prodigy are asking £45 for their gigs.

Amex presale is on now too.

No sign of any 'lucky dip' tickets on the Amex presale - I don't have an Amex card either. Looking at that seating plan, and the way I know Anfield, I would argue some of those £80 seats (Kop End) are better than some of the £100 seats. The 'M' seats you get the comfy chairs though! 😂

Lucky dips are only ever available in general sale 

EDIT: And closer to the gig, if they decide to release more

I was talking to someone who went to tge Bon Jovi gig there and sat in upper Main Stand. He said the sound was appalling, really quiet, all you could hear clearly was the people around you.

[Hugh Jass II]

If that's what they ask for a stadium I'm terrified to know what they'd charge for the RAH.

The golden circle taking up half the pitch is a bit of a piss take. For a gig, 204, 205, 206 would be far, far better than the Upper Main Stand I imagine.

I think Elton John's tickets at Anfield were £700 for the front row!

I went to the London Stadium on the last tour and don't recall the circle being that far back. Felt like we got pretty close.

Yeah but you get the best possible view of him berating a security guard.

I went to the Dublin show, Croke Park, similar size and it about half size it is on this tour. 

On the plus side, I only got golden circle tickets the day of the show for much cheaper.

My view from the front of 202.

If I was trying or any I'd go 103 or 107 I think.
