Last year I paid less then 80 euro's general admission in Amsterdam (twice).

Both times showed up early (5 o' clock) at the venue and ended up 3 meters from the stage (no chairs, never understood with they are good for at a rockconcert).

In Antwerp I also paid something like 75 euro's for a seat at the tiers on the side.

Indeed and that is a normal price today..... Max i will pay for a concert and also for FM is between 75 and 100 Euro's....

I don't expect Europe tix to be less than US.

Thinking about the current price of tickets, and the cost of seeing Fleetwood Mac particularly with Christine back in the fold, it's easy to let the fanatic pull take control of one's wallet. I am reminded of President John F. Kennedy's inaugural address: "Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty." Sometimes, as FM fans, we lose our grip and switch the last word of that speech to "Fleetwood Mac." The band doesn't really deserve this sort of dedication, but it exists among us at times. Watch your wallets.

they were last year (i'm talking continental Europe, not UK that has all the legal scalping and such).

if they try to sell continental Europe tickets with the same prices as the US ones, we will see bunch of cancellations of shows. their promoters know better.
