>So, I decided to buy a couple of tickets for their concert, coming in June of 2019. At the Gillette stadium. Logged in this morning, before 10 am, when they started the sale. The prices are outrageous. Minimum at about $300 per tickets and those are where you sit up in the stands and see the concert on the big screen. Anything remotely close is about $700-$1000 per ticket. And people buy them. I guess it is good that some can spend that kind of money.

>I would rather spend this money to go to NYC, stay in a nice hotel for 2 nights, go to a Broadway show or to a jazz concert at the Lincoln center.

Yep - and the tickets can get much more expensive than that. The trick is to know someone and get a pass that lets you go anywhere in the stadium including on the side of the stage and behind the stage where you don't have to pay for food or drinks :)

...but hey man - it IS the Rolling Stones! How many more times you going to have a chance to see Mick and Keith? ..of course I've been saying that since I first saw them in 1981 hahaha -- but still - it's a great show and they are getting older -- if you don't see them now you may never.
