    Agree, but sadly thats going rate for top gigs now. No way I'm paying that. X2 tickets for nigh on £300.
    By the time you add on travel, food, drinks etc spend will be around £400 - £500.

    I blame online streaming.
    Years ago, bands toured on the back of an album, and made their money on album sales.
    Now, with actual sales dropping, they need to make their money from touring....hence massive ticket prince increases.

    No, thank you . . . . it was for Kirky (and I'll probably receive one soon, anyway, with a bit of luck) :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Seen the Boss last time he was here, prices no where near some of the numbers flying around now. These Legends know they can take the piss with prices because people will pay it. Sorry Bruce, I'm out this time.

    I have got a couple of tickets, but paid through the teeth for them! Common these days for stadium events sadly. Sometimes though I just think the live event will be worth it.

    Had to go to Whitley bay for digs. Unbelievable prices quoted closer to the gig. Me and the lad will taxi in, few bevvies and a bit of food, then watch the man do his thing. Looking forward to it.

    Never been that keen on him, but good luck to those who go.

    I did see him though at Si James', mid eighties sometime. Must say, though it was my then GF's hankering to see him that got me there, he did a bloody hell of a turn.

    Had a bit more time for him after that.

    Wed night not ideal, and saw him this summer in Hyde Park. Giving it a miss, might see what's available nearer the time.

    I know I whinged about the price but by God it was worth every penny. Fantastic night.
