Yeah, the Goo Goo Dolls actually seem to still enjoy playing live and aren't afraid to mix things up a bit.

Not sure too many will be jumping in to say that. I could think of 1000 other ways to spend $1000.00 instead of a concert. I'm sorry...but concerts should not be this expensive.

That was part of a longer thread where everyone was making a stink about ticket prices. I'm not bitching about it. I just think they're assholes for it.

Yes you are bitching about it Dan. You think they're assholes for charging so much. That means you're bitching.

Salaam Aleikum,

For an arena show, or any show, this is ridiculous. They've got enough money, so they don't need to charge this much. It's silly. I love Bon Jovi, but I'm not gonna pay that much for a 2 hours of entertainment. They need to either make the shows alot longer, add something really special, or slash prices.

This is not average. Maybe for them, but not for any other acts.

The prices have gone beyond crazy in the last decade. It's a rock show, nothing more than that, yet they charge prices that allude to something worth far more than just a rock show.

Work for the working man... that song sounds more contrived by the day.
