As good as it sounds, its still just a sensible business decision and not some big moral crusade, that and Jon doesn't want empty seats staring back at him in his stadiums so will flog the worst seats at cheap prices to fill it out so he can hit the targets and ''sell out'' the tour etc.

Its a simple strategy really, and all the other prices have actually gone UP, so I bet if you crunched some of the numbers they are probably charging similar if not more than last tour to the overall fanbase.

They can't do the cheap crap seats thing at Slane as it is just a big field, so have hit us with 70+ euro for a standard ticket. If it really was some moral stance they are taking, then we would at least have some cheap tickets set aside for Slane too, but don't.
