What's it Worth to You, Really? (Ticket prices)

[sparky]

I haven't seen a show this tour, and I probably won't. Two friends are coming to LA to see the show and offered to buy me a seat and I turned them down. I didn't feel it was fair to them to pay that much for a ticket, as if it was tit for tat for staying at my house.

In the past I have spent so much on tickets. 500 a seat for front row Dance at the Bowl. I am sure I did the same for at least one TISL show. I have snapped up pairs of front row and second row seats to take friends or bfs numerous times. Money was never an object. I don't even remember anymore how many times I flew places to see Stevie, though with some effort I could. It has been an easy 25k over my lifetime. I never went into debt for it. But oddly now I don't feel like paying for it LOL.

I have seen them so much. Maybe I will flip at the last second and go. I doubt it. It is the principle of the thing also, like someone else mentioned. I think they are charging too much. Way more than most people can afford. I wouldn't blink at the expense, however I do not feel like supporting the idea of it.

For anyone who wants to go, I say do it. I have no regrets about any of the shows I have been to, or the cost.
