Yep, tickets went on sale today and the entire Taylor Field sold out in 7 minutes.

7 minutes!

Does anybody have any information on how I can get a couple tickets?

I'm a bit out of the loop, but why are the Rolling Stones playing in places like Saskatchewan, Montana, and Idaho?

^^ Because somebody responsible for promoting them did their homework. Taylor field sold out in 7 minutes. That means in 7 minutes they sold around 30,000 tickets; so about as many tickets as 2 shows at the Saddledome.

There is no venue in Calgary where you could do that- thanks to the noise regulations around McMahon.

Are the noise regulations in effect all day? Because here, we have a noise by-law that kicks in at 11pm.

10 pm here. And I'm trying to recall the details, but the last time there was a concert at McMahon something happened and it was decided that because of the strict noise bylaw there wouldn't be any more concerts.

That sucks! The people that complained must have been from Saskatchewan...

Sorta off topic but I need some opinions. Has anyone been to the stadium? What would be the better seats, section 20 or 202? Thanks.

I would take 20 because when you are in the upper deck, the accoustics suck. I've been up there for a Rider game recently and we couldn't hear the PA system.

The only problem with Section 20 is that they are those half assed temporary bleachers (made of wood), so be careful when you put a camera or a bag by your feet as they could fall down (there's around 14 rows in those bleachers).

The good thing about section 20 is that the stage will be straight ahead.
