I agree. I thought the prices were totally outrageous for the merchandise. But....like you said, we pay it anyway. I would never pay $100 for a sweatshirt. Unless I got to take one of the guys home with it on. There was a shirt I bought at a Goo Goo Dolls show last year that was $15 more there than at their own headlining show!!!!!!!!!! And I bought the same GGD program online for $5 at the GGD website...they wanted $15 at the show. Of course, as I complain about the prices, I'm saving money to buy more stuff in Tampa. LOL.
