Rolling Stones offer lower-priced tickets as tour kicks off

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 03 Mei 2013 | 22.19

It appears that Rolling Stones fans have a price limit, with the cost of tickets purportedly dropping for concerts on the iconic rock band's 50 and Counting tour.

The band kicks off its latest concert series in Los Angeles on Friday, but the priciest tickets for the Staples Center show — which have a face value of up to $600 US per person — remained available for purchase online Thursday.

Some fans have been spreading news online of deals for the top-priced Stones tickets, after some ticket resellers reportedly reduced their prices for a few upcoming shows in California by as much as $200 US per ticket.

Meanwhile, the band's decision to offer $85 tickets for a general admission "Tongue Pit" area next to the stage — a trend adopted by many artists — has proved successful, selling out in many locations.

The instant sellout of the lower-priced tickets prompted the Stones to announce on Wednesday that they'd be offering more of them — with conditions.

The new batch of $85 tickets could land fans in the stage-side pit or another area of the arena. However, the number of new tickets available at each stop will be determined the day of the concert, after the band's staging and production is loaded in. Consequently, the seat locations will only be revealed when a buyer actually picks up his or her tickets the night of the show. The tickets must be bought in pairs.

Interested fans can register for a chance at the new batch of lower-priced tickets via the band's official website or Facebook page. The tickets will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis.

The Rolling Stones, who celebrated their 50th anniversary as a band in 2012, have been blasted for the high prices of their shows. So far, the group has announced 17 concert stops across North America for the 50 and Counting tour, followed by three in the U.K., including a stop at the Glastonbury Festival.
