Rolling Stones Hyde Park tickets sell out in three minutes...

Tickets for the Rolling Stones's Hyde Park gig this June went on sale at 9am today, but had already sold out on the band's official website by 9.03am.
The show is part of the band's 50 and Counting tour and the Rolling Stones are one of the headliners of the 10-day series of events at Hyde Park's British Summer Time gigs.
The Stones will play in London just days after they headline the Saturday night of Glastonbury festival in June. The date. July 6, is 44 years after the band first played at Hyde Park in 1969.
Tickets for last year's Rolling Stones gigs sold out in seven minutes, despite the high prices. Ticket prices for Hyde Park started at £95.00 and went up to £299. There are rumours of a second date being added due to the popularity of the concert.
Tickets are already being re-sold on ticket marketplace Viagogo at a starting price of £1,097 each, with tickets in the coveted "Diamond Circle" area costing £2,500 upwards. Sold out tickets are also available via Telegraph Tickets.
