TICKETS for The Rolling Stones' 50th anniversary gigs are selling online for £13,000 a pair, it emerged last night.
Prices have soared since Monday when the band announced two gigs at London's O2 Arena next month.American Express cardholders were able to immediately buy tickets with face values up to £406, but they were soon appearing on re-selling sites.
Seatwave.com had two seats for £13,044. Tickets originally priced at £106 were going for £336.30.
Before re-selling began, the high ticket prices were criticised. But touring company Virgin Live said the gigs were "very special". Most tickets go on sale on Friday.
