The last band shirt that I bought was only $10 and that was last summer.

ITT people pay $200 to sit in bleachers and watch Neil Diamond, I think.

If you have a seat, you're doing it wrong. If you have to buy tickets through ticketmaster, you're doing it wrong.

When Van Halen was touring it cost 150+ for crappy seats in Pittsburgh. That's when I stopped going to any concert that cost more the 50+.

The only place that is good near Pittsburgh is The Palace Theater in Greensburg because they can sale tickets directly to you.

Kid Rock is on tour and is selling his tickets to all concerts for $20. It cost me $29 with ticketcrapster $9 fee but hell I'm seeing Kid Rock, ZZ Top, and Uncle Kracker. More bands need to do this. He is also slashing prices on everything even shirts for $20. Kid Rock seems to be the only one that gets it.

Back in the 80's concerts when I was in high school (Iron Maiden, Scorpions, Judas Priest, Def Leppard, Metallica, etc) tickets were $15-30 for floor seats and 3/4 sleeve length concert shirts were $15-20...

Yeah, even the small bands around here have $35 t-shirts. We went to see Stars last week and the wife always wants a shirt from every show we go to, so that was $35 gone for one of those small girly shirts.

Bought her a $100 hoodie at Neil Young too.

1) Who would go to a David Lee Roth concert?
2) Who would pay $15.75 to see David Lee Roth
3) Seriously, who would go to a David Lee Roth concert?
