The cheap tickets is because there's no way they'll fill a stadium charging £50 or whatever it is to sit up in the gods.

Making a few bob is better than nothing...

This is the first tour I'm having serious issues with the prices.

I don't think they're that much dearer than the Cicle tour (I might be wrong right enough, I can't remember) but to charge £70+ fees for a standard ticket in a stadium when there's a recession on is bullshit.

The money isn't an issue and I'll probably be daft enough to pay it anyway (though I'm not getting suckered into GC or DC tickets) but a lot of bands and tickets have gone down in price over the past year or so.
