Default What is the most you would pay for a concert ticket?

The whole Police reunion gossip got me wondering.

I've paid £75 ($145) +fees twice, It was definitely easier the second time, but I felt a little cheated.

First time round, Simon & Garfunkel was a once-in-a-lifetime type affair, to date the best concert I ever saw.

Then last year, Brian Wilson asked an astonishing amount for the last performance of Pet Sounds in London. I just can't resist Brian Wilson shows, his band are among the greatest musicians in the world, but there was a definite sense of being milked.

A case of a smallish number of fans being extremely devoted, rather than a massive demand for tickets.

Anyway, the Police, I'd want a good seat or GC standing and would probably go higher, £85, possibly, £100 probably not....

Not an exciting thread, but puts off doing actual work for a little while.
