It would have been a nice evening out, but not a nice 400 dollar evening out.

I could go buy lots of shoes and clothes for that price and at least have something to show for it.

.... plus a whole bunch of CDs of my other favorite artists.......

Am I the only one who is on a CD-budget? I by far don't have all the albums I'd like to have.

The show will hold about 1600 people and the prices are compleletly in line for big names in small venues and some big names in huge venues. I'm not shocked by the price at all.

I'm glad that I don't live in America and have to pay these prices. Southside Johnny in a Club last Saturday costed 22 Euros. And Jon back in 1997 in the club in Hamburg for 1.300 people costed about 25 Euros and Shepherd's Bush 25 Pounds. All these prices are more than far away from what the tix in Borgata cost.

I find the Borgata-price more than outrageous. Who is able to pay this esp. when you are young and only get pocket money?

Shows at casinos aren't tailored to a young crowd anyway. At some of them in MS, you have to be 21 to go to a show, just as you do to get into the casino. Just about everything is expensive at these places. I went to on a business trip a couple of weeks ago and stayed at a hotel/casino/convention center. I had dinner at a place where one of the less expensive meals cost $32. That was in MS where the cost of living is less than NJ. The same meal probably would have been $45 in Atlantic City.

THESE PRICES ARE A LEGAL ROBBERY!!
IF THE PROBLEM IS THE VENUE, WHY DON'T PLAY IN A BIGGER ONE?
YOU HAVE A LOT OF INDOOR STADIUMS IN AMERICA, NOT ONLY CENTERS OR ARENAS.
I THINK THE PROBLEM IS BON JOVI CACHET.

FOR EXAMPLE : 750.000$ / 30.000 PEOPLE IS ONE THING
750.000$ / 1900 IS ANOTHER ONE.
