OH wow thats a bit much. Is that because of the travel involved or do homegrown bands charge that much?

Pink charged from $99 to about $149 for GA and close up. She was here for 3 months and sold out pretty much every show. Melbourne alone had 17 shows!!
She puts on a fantastic show and doesn't charge obsence prices.

How much did she charge for front row?

Plus, it's $153 for GA for Jovi but $4 less for Pink, yet Jovi are the bad guys because they charged four dollars more? That makes no sense.

as far as I know GA got you front row or right along the walkway. It was a case of getting their early to get a good spot.

Bon Jovis GA is at the back of the floor not anywhere near front row.

That might depend on where she played, too, and the setup. She didn't play stadiums, she's not big enough for that just yet. I remember when she came and I can't remember where she played, the Palaise or something maybe. I cant spell it but I am sure you know what I am getting at!

Thats the one in St Kilda.

Her Funhouse tour was arena based and yes it was big. I don't think she can do stadiums because of her trapeze acts. she needs the indoor venues.

Not big enough??
In 2009, she broke her own record, with 58 shows surpassing John Farnham's Whispering Jack Tour with the most ever shows in Australia. She performed 17 shows at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, breaking Farnham's record for most amount of shows at the venue during one tour. Pink also performed 10 shows at the Sydney Entertainment Centre and 12 shows in Sydney altogether. 650,000 tickets have been sold for her Australian tour. It is estimated that the Australian leg grossed over $80 million.

She is obviously more popular than I thought.
My mate went to see her, she enjoyed herself, liked the trapeze things she swings on.

Just hope the girl doesn't hurt herself.
