It's disgusting and I'm seriously tempted to say screw the live shows for good until they can at least learn to be sensible with their prices. If that means I miss seeing them play live, so be it. I have my live albums, I have youtube, I get to play the songs live regularly myself and I can go and see any number of other acts.

They aren't the only band on the planet FFS! I'd rather give my money to a band that treats its fans with the respect they deserve instead of milking them for everything they can get.

Even if we assume brand Bon Jovi had no idea of the extortionate prices of tickets to these shows, they could still do what Bruce did and stand up for the people who've supported them through thick or thin over the last 25 years!
Well said. Prices are a disgrace. I'm only 16, don't have a job and yet I really want to see them live, but I'm not paying nearly £200 for a 2 hour basic setlist, which, it will be.

I can't believe prices are this high. I was thinking, £45-£60 and another £20 to get there and back, tops. Then I seen the prices and was like

Disgrace!
