Quite a number of people on the Ledge went to see multiple shows on FM's last tour. I'd bet that, after factoring travel expenses, hotel accommodations and ticket prices, any number of them easily spent $350 just to see one show.

Fair enough. But thats WITH other expenses factored in. These tickets are $350 a pop.

True... very true!

I think it's safe to say though that a lot of people are willing to pay a lot of money to see their favorite artist.

I'm too frugal. Even if I went to concerts, there's no way I could ever, in good conscience, spend that kind of money. But more power to those who do... life's too short, I say enjoy it however you see fit.

as Cher says..."it's better to look back and say 'damn, I shouldn't have done that'" than to regret not doing something.

I spent an ungodly amount on the whole Vegas thing last year. Really, the only artists I would sell my kidney for would be Stevie or Barbra. There's no limit to what I'd spend. honestly.

Now...someone call the looneybin.

It bums me out, though; I have wanted to see her for a long time.

well, keep in mind too, that this may not be the final list of tour dates. so, there's still hope.

Exactly to be where I wanted to be. I don't like Madonna so I would not spend one cent on her show but I would for The Mac in a heartbeat.
By the way someone I work with is a Barbra Streisand fan and he said that she is doing a show ( he did not know where however) and that a ticket was $1300.00. Imagine that one. Kind of glad that I am not a Barbra fan either but he said that no singer can put a smile on his face like she can. I sort of felt bad knowing that he won't get the chance to see her live due to the amount of the ticket. If I see a contest someplace to win a ticket I am going to enter his name.

About Barbra? That's what my coworker told me. I don't know where she is playing but then again he did not know either. He just knew that the tickets were $1300.00.

I heard Babs was gonna do another tour, and that $1300 would be the ticket price. I think I saw it on perezhilton.com.

Anywho...

http://confessionstour.com/ is the official website of the tour.

so far, here are the dates:

NORTH AMERICA:

May 21 Los Angeles Forum
May 27 Las Vegas MGM Grand Garden Arena
May 30 San Jose HP Pavilion
June 5 Fresno Save Mart Center
June 8 Phoenix Glendale Arena
June 14 Chicago United Center
June 21 Montreal Bell Centre
June 25 Hartford Civic Centre
June 28 New York Madison Square Garden
June 29 New York Madison Square Garden
July 08 Boston TD Bank Garden
July 12 Philadelphia Wachovia Center
July 16 Atlantic City Boardwalk Hall
July 22 Miami American Airlines Arena

EUROPE:

July 30 Cardiff Millenium Stadium
Aug. 1 London Wembley Arena
Aug. 3 London Wembley Arena
Aug. 6 Rome Olympic Stadium
Aug. 20 Dusseldorf LTU Arena
Aug. 22 Hannover Niedersachsen
Aug. 24 Horsens (Denmark) Forum Horsens Outdoor
Aug. 27 Paris Bercy Stadium
Aug. 28 Paris Bercy Stadium
Sept. 3 Amsterdam Arena

Looks like those dates are scattered enough that she'll be able to add multiple nights in each city, or add cities between dates. I mean 11 shows for June and July isn't enough dates...

Considering I paid $283 to see Depeche Mode in a few weeks... yeah, some people would.

i agree - i think there'll be many more dates added. multiple dates in same cities will be added once they see how the ticket sales go. there's no toronto date there - and she played three sold out shows here last tour. that sold out in like, five minutes.

right now, i'm planning to be at the montreal show... but i'd love to see her here, too...
