I Was dissapointed in how bon jovi tour is charging a lot for good seats.
I couldn't afford it. So I bought gold seats.

Exactly. There is no sense complaining about the prices then going out and buying a ticket if you can't afford it. That was my entire point.

You think bj ticket prices are normal for this tour do you?

Unbelievable.
I thought the prices were reasonable, actually. Didn't you honestly expect them to be a lot more? I was expecting to pay at least $500 for a ticket, but I was surprised they were so cheap. And to me, $300 IS cheap - especially for a band as big as Bon Jovi. When you've been around as long as they have, they are justified in charging that much.

Well you might think that is cheap for a lot of people its not.

Band has been around for a long time . I can say u2 has been around for a very long time they have never charged that amount of money for good seats etc. U2 are the biggest rock band along with the rolling stones .

I wouldn't mind seeing U2 in concert, but I wouldn't pay $300 to see them as I am not that big a fan of them. Paying $300 to see BJ was worth it to me because they are my fave band.

As for the Rolling Stones...seeing that wrinkled old man running around on stage...*shudder*

I hope Jon quits before he enters the nursing home.

When u at the pit just talk to the next person he may have got free upgrade or paid $100 to be in the pit
No artist is worth more than $200

There is no way that is happening in Australia. The only show you can still actually buy a pit ticket right now is Perth. All other cities have sold out.

You have to pay $375 thru showbiz at the moment for a Diamond ticket and not 'good' diamond tickets. If you want a closer Diamond you need to buy a package $600 + $700 and not really great seats. Pit more $$$ again thats for the shows that have any pit seats left.
