Zint Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Think the PPV is going to be $50? Seems a bit steep.They'd get more people ordering if the price was in more of a reasonable price range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Sabbath Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Not sure how far of a drive it is for P5, but it's roughly 5 hours for me and he mentioned meeting up and carpooling the rest of the way. Where and how much, I don't know, but to answer your questions:Partly.Driving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zint Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Just did a check..the arena is only an 11min. drive from the airport, just a few miles away.That's good news, even if I had to cab it, not too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where and how much, I don't know, but to answer your questions:Partly.Driving.It's about 3 and a half hours from school for me. Stroudsburg would probably be the best meetup place for us (Unless you can think of somewhere closer)...from school I take Rt. south through Williamsport and then I-80 east all the way into Jersey...if you know of somewhere better to meet up let me know Just did a check..the arena is only an 11min. drive from the airport, just a few miles away.That's good news, even if I had to cab it, not too bad.As long as we're doing the same gig we'd be happy to pick you up!

Seems a bit steep.They'd get more people ordering if the price was in more of a reasonable price range.WWE charges $55 for Wrestlemania, just to give you an idea, and it could turn out to be less, but I highly doubt it. I'm sure some people will find a way to watch it for free. The Stones were the first band to have a pay per view concert (I don't think they made much money out of it) and it happened to be the one where the guy ran on stage and Keith took care of business *L*. At 2:45, you'll find the PPV promotion from 1981, it's pretty amusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some shit scheduled that weekend so I have to figure something out fast.I might just fly in, see the show, head back to the airport, kill time there and then catch the first redeye back.

Randy Lahey Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 (edited) The Stones put on a good show live, but I wouldn't spend $400 to see them. I've seen them before and I can tell you that they aren't worth more than $150, unless Ronnie dies and Mick Taylor replaces him. The ridiculous pricing is the main reason why I am not going to see McCartney and Springsteen next month. Ticket prices are out of control, and I wouldn't have a good enough time to justify the price. A reunited Zeppelin or GNR are the only two bands I'd pay that kind of money to see.

If they said they were doing one of the albums from beginning to end, I'd go see it. I had floor seats when I saw them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be interesting to see if they do the show in chronological order, I'm sure they're going to have a really cool intro to the concert, and prob. have a few they've rarely done in concert. Being that Johnny Depp put Keith in a couple of movies, wonder if Keith told him to pack a guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
