Any one else try to get Stones tickets for the Newark show this morning through facebook? They had a pre-sale for facebook fans which only .0001% of fans actually scored tickets to. After reading the comments on the band's fb page, Stones fans apparently hate ticketmaster as much, if not more, than we Phish fans do.
I am somewhat of a Stones fan, but have never seen them live. Loving Cup is a favorite encore of mine. I figure the opportunity to see the Stones won't be available for too much longer....
The only silver lining is that I loosened up my ticketmaster fingers for 12:00 pm today. Best of luck everyone!

I tried right at 9, and of course NOTHING.

The fans shouldn't hate just ticketmaster. They should also hate that band for selling tickets with a face value of $800+

Ticketmaster really f***ed me over today. Twice. TWICE. I made it through and got tickets only to have it say "error, cant communicate with server". Balls.

Say what you will about the exorbitant ticket prices and the geriatric state of the band. The new tracks they released are some serious head-nod shit....If you told me these were unreleased tracks from late 70's early 80's Id believe it. Smash or trash? (I'll go ahead and mark @mmetch down for trash)

I've been thinking about the Stones lately. It's hard to exaggerate what they meant in the late 60s and 70s. They were not just the greatest rock and roll band the world has ever seen, they ripped open youth culture. (to be clear, though I'd put them in my top 5, I'm talking about cultural history, not personal favorites.). When was the last time that a R&R band mattered in this way? The last time a band caused fear and trembling? The last time a band created an earthquake?
