If people purchase these 1st leg tickets at the prices asked will the 2015 2nd leg prices be even more??? Maybe fans should take a chance and NOT purchase tickets at the start of the sale...If 1st leg sales are slow perhaps 2nd leg prices will come down a wee bit...
agree with this whole post. to me it looks like this is exactly band's plan. they will keep re-issuing Rumours and touring playing Rumours songs over and over, charging more and more each time.

if people don't purchase 1st leg tickets at the beginning of the presales or even general sales, TM platinum prices will drop and eventually even go back to the pot, even during the 1st leg. same with Mick's.

but the problem are not regular people, problem are scalpers. if they decide that the tickets will sell for this tour, they'll just buy all the presales and sales, as what happened in London last year. you think tickets for the whole show sold out in 5 minutes during presales to people buying 2 tickets a piece? think again.
