gig ticket prices 15:51 - Dec 22 with 9414 viewsRangersDave

Thought i'd try and go see 'The Boss' (Springsteen) again before he really gets to old to gig, and he's doing 4/5 gigs in the UK in 2023.

I did see him at Man Citeh ground on the last tour, and paid £75 per ticket......

Imagine my surprise this time round.....£300 is the starting point per ticket! Sorry Bruce, but feck that,

Folks have a very simple choice: tell them to feck off or get mugged off.

They've seen that people are happily mugged off paying insane PL ticket prices and thought "let's have some of that".
As long as people keep paying those prices it will never change.

I was looking at the Depeche Mode gig and just walked away at that price as well.

Never knowingly understood

Seeing Bruce for about £100 at Murrayfield.
The crazy prices are as a result of the Ticketmaster dynamic pricing algorithm that ignores face value and sets price based on demand. And the chuffing booking fee.

It's their way of trying to take on the secondary ticket market by getting all the money for themselves. Sometimes it just works out cheaper to get a fight to somewhere like Lisbon, or Marseille, and making a weekend of it.

That’s it. Simple as that, but thousands won’t have it. And so it goes...

I'm a huge Springsteen fan myself seen him loads of times over the years but am refusing to pay these prices on principle.So the plan is just to go to Hyde Park and listen to the show outside the arena and maybe sneak in while the gig is going on.

There is nothing better designed to bring down the price of goods or services than not buying them.

My missus got a freebie to Coldplay at Wembley in the summer. By all accounts a standard ticket was 300 quid.

Fk me. They must be absolutely coining it in.

In my head a gig still costs £6

Ticket prices have just gone mental , I know it was 20 years ago but I bought a Joe Strummer ticket for £12 a small percentage of my wage at the time , men of the people like Bruce want most of your wage for a ticket . I’ve seen nearly everybody I want to see , couldn’t justify paying stupid money . I will support local musicians instead , who wants to sit in a crowded park anyway?

Speaking of tribute acts,Tom Jones coming our part of the world next July. Beautiful amphitheater cut into the side of a castle. €55 a ticket!

I know, I know Tom Jones, but ‘It’s not unusual’ and for that price and venue, ‘why, why, why pay higher.’

Banquet Records in Kingston put on loads of gigs at Pryzm in the town centre. They've got Stormzy tonight and tomorrow and for £35 you got two tickets and two CD's. A real mixture of acts too in a small venue. Saw Johnny Marr there for £15 in April and he was excellent.
The only problem is you've got to be very quick as it only holds about a thousand
