1 The article published on the
Reuters on 2 May, 2013 is headlined Rolling Stones release low-priced
seats ahead of L.A. show. The article reports that famous band released some
low-priced seats seats , because it was too expensive for fans.
To read this article it’s necessary to emphasize that secondary ticket sellers StubHub had more than 500 tickets
available 24 hours before the May 3 show, Good Seat tickets said they were
slashing re-sale prices by 40 percent, and Epic Nation rolled out a 10 percent
discount code.
According to the website statistic, some of the $85 seats will be among
the best seats in house in the "Tongue Pit," with others spread
around the arena. Buyers will be notified of their seat location on the day of
the show.
It was revealed that on Thursday, seats at prices ranging from $250 to
$600 were still available, according to the AXS website operated by AEG, which
owns the Staples Center arena that seats about 19,000 people.
It’s fact that It's the biggest tour by the Stones in six years and follows
a handful of dates in London, Paris and New York at the end of 2012. Tickets
for the London shows in November sold out swiftly despite complaints from fans
over similarly high prices.
The author also reports that The band played a more reasonably priced
$20 "surprise" gig in Los Angeles last Saturday. The Rolling Stones
last went on the road from 2005 to 2007, playing 144 shows globally and
grossing more than $550 million, one of the world's most lucrative tours.
Talking about this situation it’s necessary to note that guitarist Mick
Taylor, who played with the Stones from 1969 to 1974, is joining frontman Mick
Jagger, guitarists Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood and drummer Charlie Watts, as
a guest on the North American tour.
To sum up the author writes that the Rolling Stones will play London's
Hyde Park, and for the first time in their career, the Glastonbury music
festival in England, both of which are sold out.
To my mind, this decision saves the band from omissions. I am not a fan
of this group, that’s why I can’t fully understand the emotions of fans. But I
believe that it’s band may please their fans for a long time.
