Maybe its the economy- with food, petrol, fuel prices sky rocketing, disposable income is down and people arent spending on luxuries as much.
According to the paper this morning, Linkin Park/Jay Z are struggling big time to fill the MK Bowl, aboout 30,000+ tickets. Glastonbury struggling, it just looks like concerts as a whole are taking a downturn as people cant justify spending £40-£80 on a gig.
You might have a point.

I was watching videos from the Foo Fighters shows at The city of Manchester and Wembley stadium, The amount of empty seats was appalling.

Still the Ricoh only holds 40,000. It should reach around 38,000 at least.
