U2 tix in Australia starting at$39

You are correct - but don't forget, it is also because people like you buy the tickets, too - then they put the price up because they know you'll buy a ticket no matter the cost.

As for that trash WFTWM, if I hear that garbage played in December...I'll jump up on stage and whack the bastard over the head. I am going to hear some decent songs, not rubbish like Working Man!!

Based on set lists thus far I would be very surprised if they didn't play it, so I hope you're looking forward to being bundled out by security and charged with assault.

I dont think she was serious when she said that

I was being sarcastic (hence the emoticon).

Hehehe, I imagine they probably will play it, I don't want them to. Might be a pee break for me at that time.

I wont this time. If they have a similar pricing structure to the Australia shows I just wont go.

What on earth is wrong with just buying a ticket to a gig for a decent reasonable price seeing a band you enjoy, having a few beers and going home happy. The one and only reason for these prices and the way they are being structured is to make as much money as they possibly can.
Circle tickets, Platinum, Diamond, Gold blah blah blah ... BS just let us buy a GA or GC ticket for a reasonable price FFS.
There is nothing wrong with making money.The difference comes when you start to stretch the loyalty of your fans to breaking point. That's where I am now.

I'm not going to stand there and listen to JBJ talk about a "we society" whilst I get shafted for as much money as possible by the CEO of a major corporation. Dont stand on a platform in support of Obama and talk about change and how the lyrics to working man are up on the wall in the White House. Stop pretending to be something that you are not.

Its very difficult to like a hypocrite.

That is one of the best posts i have ever had the pleasure to read.

Not sure what happenned to jbj but he kinda lost me around the lost highway tour.I mean i love that album but he's turned into a complete wanker.We all know you're loaded Jon but who cares.Lower the ticket prices and then start preaching you moron.

You ain't Springsteen and never will be.He's the boss and you are just a try hard.For gods' sake whatever happenned to the jbj of the 80s and 90s .Yes i know we all change but ffs this is just bullshit.Bon Jovi were a band that people could relate to.I could relate to 99 in the shade,i could relate to thse days.How can i relate to work for the working man when you charge people 1800 buks for a tour programme and some shitty memorabilla.What a joke.Some people here reckon it's worth it.How fkd are these people?
