Famous concert promotor Live Nation (and Herman Schuurmans) had the plan to organise BJ in Belgium at lower ticketprices and thus selling more tickets. Nope, AEG outbid them with plan for higher prices.
Jon does not run details from country to country. He just negociates their deal in general with live nation (how many shows, revenue per show, ... that's it). AEG's business is maximizing it's own profit.

But surely he must know what AEG are planning on charging for his tickets.
There must be contracts signed,otherwise AEG would have him over a barrel.
He wouldnt be able to pull out because he would get sued for cancelling.
