    Likewise, Friday - VIP package but it looks like all we get is a bag of merchandise!! Good seats though.

    Can't wait. Start it up boys!!!!

    Biggest band doesn’t mean they are the greatest?!

    It is subjective anyway.

    Best band i've seen live.
    But also, one of the worst, 7 years later,
    Hope you get the former.

    My old man is going tomorrow. Was clinging to the hope he might have surprised me with a ticket being as it's my birthday this Sunday and I got out of my cast last Friday... No such luck!

    Cheeky sod said he's get me a t-shirt for my birthday prezzy...

    In the case of The Rolling Stones it most definitely means the same thing!

    Sorry mate, whatever formula you use to crown the biggest or greatest band in the world The Stones win hands down.

    Not liking them is totally different, that is subjective.

    Any ideas what time it starts? Gates open at 5pm but don't fancy sitting around for hours at £7.50 a pint.

    There's a 10.30pm curfew so I would imagine the Stones on for around 8.00pm - support around 6.30pm

    Go for a few around Borough & get the tube from there. (Unless you know anywhere else decent) :smile:

    I’m lead to believe the stones will be on at 7.45

    Anybody who went last night - how was it? Boys on good form?

    My brother went last night, second time he's seen them, really enjoyed it, thought they were very good, but seriously cant see them doing another tour.
    Also Liam Gallagher was surprisingly good, mostly Oasis hits.
    They were drinking from 4pm, and my bro's Mrs chundered on the way home, so a proper Rock n Roll night then.

    We didn’t bother with Gallagher but could hear the old oasis chunes as we approached the stadium and wondered if we should have given him a try, ah well...
    Stones were bloody great but I suppose they have had plenty of practise...
    The operations & stewarding around the stadium was a joke though , I won’t be going there ever again...

    They were on it - it was excellent, will be their last tour I should imagine, so was glad to have witnessed it. The best entertainment served up at the London Stadium since the Olympics - that’s not that difficult though.

    £6.50 a pint though, but it didn’t stop me drinking about 15.

    Liam Gallagher was great at well.

    Have discovered Mrs Otto isn’t really good at drinking pints - currently watching her leaning over a bucket and looking green. Had to iron my 11 year olds school shirt, pack his PE kit, make him breakfast, put the bins out and now she has asked me to go food shopping whilst making sure our 16 year old is ready for his latest GCSE this afternoon ......I’m a man FFS - I don’t multitask....absolute joke :wink: missed homes under the hammer because of her weakness.
    Good to hear - let's hope they saved some for Friday!

    Yes I don't expect them to tour again, so last chance to see the greatest at their best - live.

    They were excellent! So glad I went. Set was great too, although they didn't play Wild Horses which I was hoping for.

    Liam was brilliant as well, mostly early Oasis songs and brought Bonehead out for a couple of the tracks which was a nice surprise!

    Only downside was the size of the bloody 'golden circle' in front of the stage. Even near the front of the general admission section it felt like you were miles away. Gone are the days when you could just buy a normal standing ticket and work your way down towards the front

    Just for you mate. You know you've arrived when Susan Boyle covers you.

    Really enjoyed the gig, another tick box for me.

    Liam supporting helped as massive Oasis fan and he sung all the classics

    The crowd was what I imagine Glastonbury 1974 was. Some old fella I was chatting to (older than Jagger) was distraught that the security had taken his ‘dope’ off him

    They came on stage at 8.25 and played:

    Street Fighting Man
    It's Only Rock and Roll
    Tumbling Dice
    Paint it Black
    Ride Em On Down
    Under My Thumb
    Fool to Cry
    You Can't Always Get What You Want
    Honky Tonk Women
    Before They Make me Run - Keith
    Slipping Away - Keith
    Sympathy for the Devil
    Miss You
    Midnight Rambler
    Start Me Up
    Jumping Jack Flash
    Brown Sugar

    They were excellent. Better than when I saw them in 1990. Serious echo though and Mick had a dig about it.

    Slightly surprised that in this week's Sunday Times there was a big advert for this UK tour, I would have assumed the tickets would have been snapped up quickly?

    They were punting them out on Groupon a couple days ago

    The ticket prices were totally scandalous. Having watched some clips on youtube there is no way I'd go there, the sound is tinny as hell. Liam Gallagher was very good from all the clips I've seen on youtube.
